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.

Happy Fathers Day to all you fathers out there! I don’t think any Jazz father has gotten more attention in recent years than the recently passed Ellis Marsalis, father of the Marsalis brothers. Wynton in particular has gotten more attention than just about any other Jazz player in recent years; and deservedly so. They say “the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree”; and a fine tree it was! : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLN8qlqOAlmHflliUZ3KzHucaZ9g7okVEH https://youtu.be/M7WFYZ1U0Yg |
