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!:
