Jazz for aficionados
Mary-Jo, I've been going back over recent posts, and I can't believe that I preferred Mundell Lowe over Grant Green on that post, but that's the nature of jazz. He really captured a different mood for "Speak Low", that was very romantic; it took me back to a summer afternoon in Forest Park. It's fascinating how the same tune by different artists can take you different places; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKpNXtUFKhQ |
It appears "Third Plane " is extra cuts from the same session as "Herbie Hancock Trio". "Trio " is much better to me. Listening to it now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbie_Hancock_Trio_(1977_album) |
Frogman, on Herby Hancock "Head Hunters" ; at the time that came out, I was totally 100% captured by the music, and one of the comments took me back to that time. "It's 1973. I am in Olney, MD. Sitting in the bedroom of my best friend Timmy Moody. He's got a Marantz model 2600 reciever, a pair of Bose 901 speakers, an Empire 498 turntable with a Shure V15 cartridge. He lights up a Thai Stick and drops the Herbie Hancock Head Hunters album on to the Empire and cranks the volume." I'm quite familiar with those components, I had the Shure Cartridge, lusted for the Empire 498 turntable, and Bose 901 speakers; those were good times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZy7v_-ss74 |
