Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music.
If you can't win the argument, change the subject; that sounds like politics 101 to me. On to more good trumpet player from New Orleans. (Between me and you, I was in basic training with this guy named Petrie from Nawlins, that's the way he pronounced it, and he was born in New Orleans, had that accent that let you know it) Maybe things done changed since that time. Nicholas Payton was born 1973 in New Orleans, and he's a top rated trumpet player; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWXELfT-pMk |
I wonder what the critics at the barber shop would say about this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKqjPeKAh2Y Love it!!! Cheers |
I wonder if "the street" ever voted this guy best trumpet player. I think not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHAfhPrrKHA Cheers |
"Pops" is still number 1 on official lists, but those who place him number 1 on the street have died out. If he had played hard-bop he would be number 1 on the street now. Another kind of New Orleans music I like is "Voodoo music". In the South, I believe they call it "Hoo-Doo". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZePgj6rLV5k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KIscg0L7PA&list=PL16276A94A9205B1E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb8DlC3utYE |
