Which Pat Metheny album are you referencing? There are so many to choose from.😀
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.

@jafant Have you heard this one?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_BlsY9Xg8&list=PL6O6K_7sr3qFkcg6jYcIOqpwL81b29F28 It doesn’t really sound like Jazz to me (although these are clearly Jazz musicians) but it’s an enjoyable listen. @curiousjim

stuartk, Metheny I sort of a hometown boy for me. While he was born Missouri , about 220 miles from me, we lived about 40 miles from Lee’s Summit for 7+ years. Oh and check out https://youtu.be/bLKb9Ms68ME?si=8M7LqbLegxDDiADo he’s playing with Joni Mitchell so is Jaco.  There’s only a slight bit of Jazz influence, but I enjoyed watching the video just the same. |
