Going with your logic, why don’t we call this "Pepper Adams" album.

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.

The Frogman: ***** I think that you would be surprised at how much more music you might hear with a good amp driving your Polks.***** You got my attention with the mention of Timbre. What would you consider a good amp? I'm in a buying mood, ordered headphones today. Expression: This would not considered 'accessible' Coltrane, but as I listened I wondered if the 'fault' was Coltrane or his group. I tired to block out the group (impossible), but any confused or disjointed playing seem to be coming from them, and not Coltrane. Comments. Cheers |
O-10, with respect, there is no logic to your argument. First of all, if you want to go down that road, you can start by suggesting that it be called a “Ronnie Cuber” album. That is Ronnie Cuber, not Adams. Secondly, it is not about logic; it is about practice and tradition. Mingus was a rhythm section player. Bass is not a typical melody instrument in a Jazz band. Mingus’ records were first and foremost about Mingus the composer, not Mingus the soloist...usually. O-10, we can let it go now. You have your opinion and I have mine. I’m good with that. You want to believe you’re correct; I’m good with that too. |
When you really compare this; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__OSyznVDOY To this; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImvjZ7fUUBU If you are a true aficionado, you can hear a big difference. |
