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.

Thanks for the correction; the posts you submitted with words were fantastic. The very first time I heard Herby Hancock's "Maiden Voyage" was when it came on the FM Stereo while I was cruising the Boulevard in my 66 "Deuce and a Quarter", that still had the "new car smell". Of course that was in 66. Probably the next tune to pop up was this one; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR1bWhdoIXM |
What happened here? Over the weekend I posted an experience where more than half the audience walked out of a Miles concert in the '70s after he went electronic. In that I also posted a link to a great Ben Webster album in response to a prior comment. Today I looked back at page 367 to see where I left off but it is no longer there. In addition there is no note about a message being removed. So does anyone know how or why this happens? |
