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.

This thread is very important to me. "All" aficionados are important to me; without them, there would be no thread. My time is very important to me; especially now, any time I'm strong enough, I will post. (please, no sympathy) Frogman, and Alex; that's a very interesting debate in regard to what we like and why; just be honest with yourself and let it flow. I'm going to post a couple of tunes in the soul groove that I feel very fortunate in owning these records; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y189ynRTISg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIqLJmlQQNM Enjoy the music. |
