The Herbie Hancock Trio album is definitely better the Third Plane. Might even buy that one. Thanks for posting it.

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.

"These guys live in the greatest country in the world, courtesy of the Christian God, and all they think of is Africa and voodoo." Rok, when the snow got deep in St. Louis, I spent a lot of time at the library. They had books hundreds of years old, one of them was "Diary of a Slave Trader", that I read. For some reason I can't find that book anymore, it's as if the book never existed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Louis_Public_Library https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h67Kwve1YS8 "The Door of No Return" was the one slaves went through when they left "Dahomey", a place so gruesome that no one wants any part of it's history; they have since changed the name to "Benin". Slaves were sold Voodoo amulets before they passed through the door of no return. I have no idea how they paid. Voodoo has no Bible, yet it exists in Cuba, the Southern USA, Haiti, Brazil, and other parts of South America; you tell me why and how it exists. |
****** Voodoo has no Bible, yet it exists in Cuba, the Southern USA, Haiti, Brazil, and other parts of South America; you tell me why and how it exists.***** In a word: Ignorance. Not in the entire Southern USA, just small areas of New Orleans and Miami. And that’s because of immigrants. Baptists rule elsewhere. My older sister, who is very smart, just ask her, said, "what do they expect from a country that has Voodoo as a religion. Speaking of Haiti and it’s endless nightmare. She be right. Cheers Btw, The gate of no return is now a tourist trap. Operated by, and profited from by the very people that sold the slaves in the first place. And they say God has no sense of humor. |
