Jazz for aficionados
Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

frogman Could be a good find but I have most of the impulse albums from that period except Duke Ellington meets John Coltrane which I would buy before this." Nature Boy" with no solos? The cut included sounds like a lot of his output from that period. This might be a session which he or impulse didn't want to release at the time. |

Thought I'd drop in while i'm listening to a recent acquisition. An amazingly well preserved 1957 press - The Incomparable Earl "fatha"Hines. In the 3 for $10 bin. It's a "greatest hits" compilation with cuts that likely were on 78's originally. Tough finding tunes from the album https://video.search.yahoo.com/video/play;_ylt=Awr46ufCdB1b.HoALd.5mWRH;_ylu=X3oDMTByZWc0dGJtBHNlYwN... That cool table isn't mine...it's the only cut I could find on the album! My copy however is quieter. Playing with a new cart on the table. Straight ahead, swingin music from a different time. Instrumental stuff is timeless. |
