He is a showman, but I like his stuff. The singers at 2:30 didn't seem to fit the song. Sort of like most drum solos in Jazz.

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.

You always do ac . This old girl may have a few miles on her , but her engine is hitting on all cylinders !Boys in the band have good tires too . https://youtu.be/OOtUIMrJUyc?t=6 |
Frogman, saw documentary on tv, from Steinway factory (in lack of better term, as they are made by hand) and aldo the pianos are all made by same people with same material, they sound different, so man can choose one that suits him best. They have a large hall where the pianos can be tried before purchase. Fascinating stuff, but it seems that they (Steinway co.) are worried about the future. What about brass instruments, do they sound different ? (if made by same producer) Keegiam, when posting, try to find the clip you are talking about on ytube and than share it here. Its much easier to hear it that way |
