Schubert, in order to understand Rok, you must understand his "reality". First, I can tell you have never been to Mississippi; they have their own separate reality because they live in a separate universe. Now, every time Rok speaks, all you have to do is think about "Mississippi" and all will be perfectly clear. You just have to see everything through the "Mississippi Prism".
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 rok , there were East Anglicans in my time .And were and are a regiment any good soldier would be proud to serve in .Could lose the" Royal " IMO . I fear the pols endless imalgamation stunts in the UK will ruin the Regiments. The 22 years in same one was the Lionheart of the British .And the solo replacements the curse of us . I had a tizzy fit when the Black Watch , which my great grandfather piper was one of , and fell with them in 1915 , marched to lay their colors down . Only time I was glad my grandmother had passed . She talked of him and the Black Watch a lot . |
I know 0-10 . I've been in the "Miss' as the black soldiers called it . And every other state in the South. Many white soldiers grew up in families where the Confederate " noble cause' was the right one till this day . Taking an oath to a country who says the opposite was a real struggle for many ,if only unconsciously . Became easy to spot as soldiers contradicted them self in same sentence .Hardest job of Plt . Sgt was to keep the peace between the races . I never faulted anyone on this as it was not of their doing . |
rok, If there is a greater fax pas than a German Army Band playing " The Glory of Prussia " in Red Square I can't think of it . Lucky they got home alive . https://youtu.be/etj9CpsxuoM?t=4 |
