Jazz for aficionados
Leersfool, although I didn't remember Abbe Lane as a movie star, you jogged my memory as to where I remember the name; here are some songs she sang that I remember, they're all dripping with "sensuality". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA_1Roa_MkA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0O7d5C1-T8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkKNLw0jE9k Enjoy the music. |
What a coincident, I was listening to Nancy in the car on my way home; yes, she's very sensual. You and Leersfool have given me a new perspective on the same music I've been listening to for all of my life. Take "On Green Dolphin Street" for example; I never gave any thought as to who composed it, now I'm listening to solo piano by Bronislaw Kaper, the composer of this beautiful tune. When played by him, the music takes on a lighter than air quality, the notes just float. While this music tells a story that I'm unaware of, that's just as well because it allows me to invent my story for the music. One thing is certain, I get a glorious feeling when I'm "On Green Dolphin Street". Now I'm going to give you Miles Davis's "On Green Dolphin Street". First, we have the lush beautiful intro by Bill Evans on piano, followed by Miles trumpet, and Trane's improvisation. All of these musicians show great respect for the composer. That lets me know the depth of their musical knowledge. Once again, I get that glorious feeling from being "On Green Dolphin Street". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrVnm66joQk Enjoy the music. |
