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.

 Must have been nice for the victorious American Servicemen to come home to NY and hit 52nd Street at night. Check out Parker smiling at Buddy Rich in the 3rd link.

81583FACT 1920 Polish Army alone in 1920 turned back the Invincible Red Army with women, old men and boy scouts left to fight in the Warsaw borders , which they did and many died doing it .
 As the Great tactical Polish Generals routed from both flanks the Red Army which would otherwise would have taken all of Europe .
Fact in 1628 The Christian Polish Army did the impossible , with 100,000 men they turned back the 300. 000 Ottoman Turks at the gates of Vienna with tactics still studied in military schools world wide .
Had they not , you might be speaking Arabic .

Fact 6 out of your 7 facts are not facts .
Fact This crap should not be on here , Bye .
