I find this music and voice so soothing; I exhale, breath deeply, and relax when I hear it. Now I'm floating on a pink cloud taking in the most beautiful music and voice I've ever heard.

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.

Mary_jo and Alex, I noticed you guys haven't posted since we changed subjects. The way this works, if you don't feel comfortable posting on the present subject, you simply post on whatever you're into at the moment. Have no fear, when we deviate from mainstream jazz, it's only a temporary condition, we always return. Personally, I'm enjoying the deviation, but as I stated, it will run it's course. |
This music came from Africa, but I don’t think you will find it on the continent of Africa; I’m getting closer, I can tell, because none of the comments are in English. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0ILM8V_8kY |
O-10, I do not know about Alex, but samba is not my cup of tea. I find it too joyful. :--) Melancholic Fado music (still portuguese language :--)) performed by good looking Mariza: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KxAEPi_yQI8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S2Ip-uUhaoI |
