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.

Here I am; and lets keep things interesting 😃 ****December issue includes the 80th Readers Poll. :( Of the approx 30 entries under 'Jazz Album', I only own one. "The Art of Conversation" by Kenny Barron and Dave Holland. Amazing! I can only conclude that my music is disappearing fast.**** Why do you come to that conclusion based on the fact that you onky own one? Have you heard the other 29? Start buying! 😛. It is true, however, that most of our favorites are dead. ****I understand better why Woods was not on my radar for such a long time.**** Please explain; genuinely interested. ****Some promising news concerned the current crop of young up and coming Jazz musicians in New Orleans. "They play with their hearts and their heads" hmmmmmmmmmmm I hope that means something good.**** Sorta contradicts first comment, no? ****Tom Harrell's latest album "First Impressions", received a 5-star rating. The reviewer states that 6 of the 8 tracks were credited to Maurice Ravel or Claude Debussy!! WTF!?! This is, a Jazz publication??**** Two words: Ellington "Nutcracker". Halten den guten kampf! And you thought Diana Krall was bad....there oughta be a law!: [URL]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WzvgV4lILSc[/URL] Antidote: [URL]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S-lHrDPjGfQ[/URL] |
Are you saying the OP has gone native on us? Maybe the aborigines invited him to dinner, and he misunderstood. Could he be, as we speak, in a big pot, water up to his chin? But our OP, would at least think of a Jazz tune appropriate for the situation. May I suggest, Lee Morgan's "The cooker". :) O-10, pouting time is over. Get yo self back in here. Cheers |
Ellington / Harrell Ellington has the stature, track record, and reputation to play anything, and it will be taken serious. Examined in detail. Discussed endlessly. Will become part of the Jazz Lexicon. No so for Harrell. Excellent Trumpet player / composer. But, Ellington is in an altogether different category. I have 'Nutcracker' by Ellington, simply because it was by Ellington. Otherwise, Peter Ilyich, will do just fine. Cheers |
