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.

Not a POLK in sight, and they call this a stereo store. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIwraPJOO3s Cheers |
These guys don’t sing, but they sure can march and play. The trouble is, they probably have more bandsmen than Infantry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=popbL1JuGqM I have just recently realized that a major mission of the British Army and Marine Corps, is to entertain the tourist in London. For perspective, The U.S. Marine Corps is larger than the entire British Military, Royal Navy, RAF and Army, combined. Cheers Btw, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDRVTES_gI8 |

Today's Listen: Kenny Barron Trio -- BOOK OF INTUITION This is as new or modern as Jazz needs to be. The playing is fresh and familiar at the same time. Excellent booklet and notes. I love it when each tune is explained. by Monk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG8CNh11G10 for Bud Powell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGtnn0FCTvE As you can see from the cover, these guys are serious. They dress and look the part of serious Jazz musicians. Being on a real Jazz label, Impulse, is good also. Cheers |
