Jazz for aficionados
Marqmike, your appreciation of my musical offering was a reward in itself. For that, here's another offering. It transports me to a special music lovers inner sanctum that's out of this world, where I find peace. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNk3qtzNM_s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4BBLNL2YPg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPFcP1oRmcs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU1hm7KlfT8 Enjoy the music. |
No Rok, I didn't like it. While I'm a big fan of each individual musician that was in that group, I didn't like the music. That band sounded like "Bird" was leading it, are you sure he wasn't there. The man blowing that horn was not "Yusef lateef", but a musician who was getting paid to blow a certain type of music, that I call "stereotypical" jazz. If that had been "Bird" and one of his groups, I would have appreciated that very same music, but it wasn't; it was an imitation of his music long after "Bird" has gone to that big band in the sky. As you know, I'm also a big fan of "Horace Silver", but his live performances overseas can also produce what the audience expects as opposed to some creative music. Musicians had to make a living, and that's exactly what those musicians were doing. Enjoy the music. |
