That was very kind of you Mary_jo, and for the sake of the thread, we should put this dog to sleep, and you know what they say about sleeping dogs; "let sleeping dogs lie".
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.

My vote is for stories too... There is famous mountin climber, world traveller, film maker and even a war vet, from this parts (he climbed Everest twice, K2, all highest peaks on every continent,North pole, etc.) who once said in kind of melancholyc way, when answering question about his exploits, that the only thing that remains after man's life are just the stories....his or about him, nevermind... |
Words of wisdom from Schubert and Marija. Silly me, I thought we had moved on. O-10, context, context, context. May I please remind you? : **** xxxxxx, try a little harder, maybe you can score more points with Frogman; let’s see, you scored points for praising his post, and you scored points for the negative dig at me, you’re moving up the ladder of the "mutual admiration society". **** Could I also please remind you? Please leave me out of your beefs with others. It is insulting. Can we please move on now? You are the OP, you don’t need anyone’s permission to tell your stories. As I said previously, carry on. https://youtu.be/RiOf7oZnlP4 |
