| Jazz for aficionados Orpheus10: I was just messin' with you about the 'reviewer' thingy. None of it was serious. I am not a 'legitimate' reviewer and never claimed to be. Just all in fun. Me, an Audiophile? Surely you jest!!! After a few exchanges with The Frogman, I... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Today's Playlist:Terence Blanchard -- A Tale of God's Will (a requiem for katrina) Very beautiful, Moving and reflective music. Blanchard plays for his home town, New Orleans. This could have been a disaster, but was very well done. Most of the t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman:Ref BrackeenCan't the change at 4:30 be thought of as the beginning of the second movement? I noticed it but did not think it was a bad thing.Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman:I found the metro / Levine. You failed to mention JULIA MIGENES!! I love that woman! I have her doing Carmen. They did a 60 minutes thingy on her years ago. What a babe.ThanksCheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:"Rok, I'm still waiting for your comments on "Soul Brothers/ Soul Meeting" with Ray Charles and Milt Jackson, as well as the Trio Trebien."I did comment of Trio Tres Bien. I am afraid 'soul meeting' is still in the waiting to be ordered box. ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman:I am sure you have probably seen this, but here it is.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ot_EM7C_9C8 I think I might like this Lulu!Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have read of it somewhere.(Lulu) Most likely in one of the music magazines I buy. I didn't pay it much mind. I havee noticed that all opera seems to be getting 'modern' in appearance. Wardrobes etc..... I decided that when it comes to Opera, it'... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I am still listening to the Brackeen youtube thingy. Lord, she is good. I hope I can hear the point you made, about around 4:30.Cheersshe does need a new hairdo. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Hamiett Bluiett -- What does one say? I have several WSQ CDs and he is part of that group.On the tune you sent, It was not too bad, because I knew it was 'a night in tunisia'. While he was playing his thing, I had the melody going on in my head. L... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Gary Smulyan, now this is the most exciting of all to me, because you say he is of the younger generation. Hell, this could have been Person / McDuff!! I liked it very much. Not the most complex / involving music, but I had no idea anyone was stil... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Well, 'The Cooker' was certainly aptly named. They were really cooking! I love stuff that moves right along. I had forgotten that george Benson was a very good Jazz player at one time. Now I will have to inflict a Benson 'review' on you all.The sa... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman:Very good Pepper Adams. I get what you said about the bass playing. I though Gomez' intonation on the Brackeen CD was good also. That's why I liked it, just didn't know how to describe it.Is it harder to play the sax in the lower range?I h... | |

| Jazz for aficionados O-10:Ref 'Trio Tres Bien' -- Nice music. As you said, sort of hard to stop listening once you start. I heard it all the way through. One thing that sort of spoiled it for me was the packaging. Seems sort of amateurish. A player should never have ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pnmeyer:I don't have the 'Awakening' by Jamal. I will have to find a way to listen to bits of it. I do have several of his CDs, that you have just put me in the mood to listen to. Glad you liked Scott.Cheers |
