Jazz for aficionados
Alexatpos, this is the first time I heard of "Ernest Ranglin", but I like his music. Since I discovered he played mostly in Jamaica, I guess that explains that. This certainly wont be the last time because I'm looking for more music by Mr. Ranglin as of now; as a matter of fact, him and Monty Alexander play so well together, I'll look for both of them together. Enjoy the music. |
Orpheus, I am glad that you liked it, and that I was able to contribute to that. If I may recomend, these are the two albums in which he plays with Monty Alexander, first 'Below the bass line', where Monty is a guest, and second is 'Rocksteady' of Monty Alexander, where Ranglin is a guest. http://youtu.be/NuyrY--vs3U http://youtu.be/v7dVmicK7qQ Since posting on this forum is quite slow, I will use the opportunity to mention one other guitar player, who is maybe known only to few, which is really pity. So, in hope that good music will spread around...Oscar Moore, used to play with Nat King Cole, on this album plays together with Carl Perkins, piano player (author of jazz standard 'Grooveyard') http://youtu.be/o3OjL1Gcs-U http://youtu.be/TpZ2on-4M2Q |
Rok, as you know, I have to occasionally pay a visit to where things are really different. Once again it's with Jan Gaberek on "Evenly They Danced"; I find that bass hypnotic, and the music seems to fit the photographs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20fHftzcOGs Here again we have hypnotic bass, this is complete with weird animation; "Where are we?" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnrH-7URvpc Enjoy the music. |
One of my latest: While you were running all over the Himalayas, you over looked this gem. Seems like an odd pairing, but it's great stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NmsddlqVXY The Gaberek was good. Nice visuals also. Esp the women in the field swaying! Wow! Liked it better than the Kilimanjaro clip. Has this site been down? Slow as molasses in the winter time! Cheers |
