I don't need nobody named "Phil Schaap" to tell me anything about "Be Bop".
When "Bird" was being interviewed by "Mr. Charlie", he might have said a lot of things that weren't quite true, but you'll have to refer to Rok in order to understand that.
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 reasons Miles replaced Diz in Bird's band had absolutely nothing to do with music, and specifically "Be Bop"; Miles couldn't touch Diz when it came to "Be Bop". Diz quit Bird's band because Bird couldn't get his "junky act" together. Miles was so nervous taking Diz's place that he asked Bird if he could quit every night. |
https://youtu.be/YPyMP4oBLCw Like clockwork. O-10, I am tired of arguing with you about the same topics over and over again; especially when you show absolutely zero interest in learning anything new and you inevitably turn a positive thing into something negative and unnecessarily personal. You understand far less about this music than you think you do, and claim to, and I find it a shame that you have no such interest. As I’ve said many times before, don’t take my word for any of this; try and do a little reading on these subjects. A good starting point is the fabulous program that I alerted all here to. You’re really missing out on a lot of wonderful information on the music and artists that you claim to so love; not to mention, music that you will otherwise never hear again. Btw, you’re welcome. Unbelievable. **** The reasons Miles replaced Diz in Bird’s band had absolutely nothing to do with music, and specifically "Be Bop" **** Nothing more need be said. |
