All excellent soundtracks; I thought that Peter Gunn was outstanding.
Here's Shelly Manne and his men;

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.

I have mentioned more than once that I won’t comment here on topics that are not related to music. I offer these thoughts in the spirit of the Holidays. Perhaps it is simply that I haven’t had my coffee yet. Frogman it's quite evident to me that you should never comment on topics that are not related to music; especially when your point of view is always from that of the well heeled establishment that wants for nothing. How much economic and social progress has Detroit, Gary Indiana, Flint Michigan and a number of other cities made? I doubt very seriously if they are having happy holidays. |
Its a tricky question, in sense that could us get arguing about subjects that are not related to music.... But, on the other hand, I will add something to Frogmans words that relates to his post and its far more 'lighter' than the one I would otherwise do, after all, no need to spoil the party. Btw, nice clip and nice movie... https://youtu.be/XbkKirBSQnI |
