Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 I’ve lived in NY, Mexico, So Cal, Maine, Oregon and since 1998, Nor Cal. I’ve always wondered what it would like to stay in one place one’s entire life and whether that might impart a certain sense of rooted stability. I’ve known folk... | |
Jazz for aficionados @mahgister I think that he hypnotized them... I think you are right! His sense of rhythm was indeed impeccable and an aspect of his playing not so often mentioned. You've heard this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBi29nU-S-I&li... | |
Jazz for aficionados @mahgister Which P. Martino album are you talking about? | |
Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 Well, I didn't have a choice at the time. My dad retired while I was about to enter 9th grade and my parents decided to move the family to Guadalajara at that point. Later on, I did return to the East Coast -- my wife and I lived in ... | |
What is your most fond musical memory. Freddie King in ’74 -- most intense live Blues I’ve witnessed. Cops set up a cage inside the Gym at UCR for "offenders". Richard Thompson -- most impressive display of guitar playing I’ve seen, overall, in renovated 18th century church in Portlan... | |

Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 I’m so envious of your access to live NYC Jazz! @mahgister Love Rene Thomas! Have you heard "Dynasty" by Stan Getz? @acman3 I enjoy Bernstein’s playing -- just wished he played with more dynamics. Interesting look at Wayne Short... | |
Jay's "Ugly Truth" video @vitussl101 I couldn’t watch 60 seconds of this doofus. Yeah and in your knee-jerk rush to judge Jay, you managed to completely miss the point of this thread! How does discounting someone without even bothering to consider what they have... | |
Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim you're welcome! @pjw81563 Thanks for the tenor suggestions. Speaking of Belgian guitarists, here's a lovely trio including Philip Catherine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZlasiIvcjU | |
What new gear have you just bought? @wolf_garcia OK. Thanks. Maybe down the road but, based on your post, not a priority purchase for me at present. | |
What new gear have you just bought? @wolf_garcia May I ask which features swayed you to go for the Max? I have a Lokius and as you know, there's quite a large price difference between the two. | |
Jazz for aficionados I haven’t been participating in this thread very long so I don’t know if he’s been mentioned but what about Eric Alexander? He and Harold Mabern had a long partnership. Here’s a taste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw7GnNxLIlk And another,... | |
