Yeah, but Liberta is much better. Not to mention video.
But she can't really dance..

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.

Very educative: https://www.knowyourchickens.com/chicken-sounds/ It might be helpful in these days when we wish to or plan to turn to domestic food production. |
While I have many albums in my collection by both Ike Quebec and Grant Green, Dodo Greene is new to me. Dodo Greene was born in Buffalo, New York in 1924 and began singing at an early age before being given the opportunity to fill-in as a vocalist for Cozy Cole's band which led her to pursue a career in music. She signed to Blue Note in 1962, becoming the first female vocalist released on that label, but after only one album, "My Hour of Need", did not release another record. The word "soul" is used a lot in jazz, but when discussing the voice and singing of Dodo Greene, that is the only word that's applicable, that's because I can feel to the depths of my soul when she sings "My Hour of Need"; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfhOthHU9QM&list=PLrXSWFwzSmZsZMAIO4Po14Grvz8bp7ZDh Thank you Alex. |
