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.

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.

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 |
My father never was in Spain, not to mention Mexico, yet somehow, he is very fond of music from those parts. Who knows from where all our likings towards some music come from? I listened with cuorisity music that its been posted lately and its very nice music indeed, but its just that I do not feel that its ’related’ to me, which is funny thing to say because I cant honestly find some rational explenation why do I feel very different when its ’classic’ jazz in question... I mean, white boy from somewhere near eastern europe, with house full of jazz music....it sounds strange even to me.... I guess I’ll just have to listen more and try to hear better my inner voice speaking....just hope that I will not hear ’bunch of guys’ whispering... Will wait for ’my turn’ to post something, dont want to interrupt the flow... |
**** it sounds strange even to me.... **** ...and you think that is strange (unexpected) ? 😊 https://youtu.be/JOVe45rj-Po |
