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.

Now that we're under "lock down" all I've got to do is share my memories with you; aren't you happy? What? OK I'm just sharing my memories with Mary-jo, blah!

Another time Mary-jo, I recall flying into LA on a clear night; that was fantastic, LA might be the only city where you actually can tell that you're flying over a city, that's because it's so big; plus you're traveling at 600 MPH which means you can cover a lot of ground real fast, it's the only city I recall flying over.

ludicrous

so foolish, unreasonable, or out of place as to be amusing; ridiculous.

I went to Walmart for toilet paper, among other things. The store I go to stocks enough toilet paper for an army; shelves 7 feet tall and very long; they were empty.

Does this virus give one the eternal Poops?

Is this toilet paper thing world wide, or just in the US.  Could I fly to Hong Kong, or Singapore and get toilet paper?
