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.

frog, the tune driving that guy bonkers in your V2 clip was "Undecided" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpnDbJjBW8A Also alex thanks for the Mundell Lowe link, nice easy, swinging example. And for fans of Gordon, I hope you've seen the film "Round Midnight" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTvfgMULsKY |
Good work, Rok! Excellent, pryso! The aficionados are digging deep! Now, re the tune in the background. A hint (in more ways than one 😉): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iNxujJGnbB4 C’mon, O-10, (and all) join the party; ‘‘tis the season...”. |
This is the third album I ever purchased. !967 I think. The first two were Joan Baez and Bob Dylan. What a time we lived in then. We spent our time training for Nam and riot control. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3bfqlTCHZk Love this woman. Cheers |
Ok, since no one is biting re the identification of the background tune in the video clip, here is one more and final hint in addition to my unbelievably clever first hint 😊 which apparently no one got: the composer of the tune was a big band leader recently mentioned here in reference to his famous saxophone section whose members were not sisters 😉. His name is referenced (sort of) in the title of the tune 🤔. C’mon aficionados, show us what you got! |
