Jazz for aficionados
You're welcome. I knew nothing about jazz and had never heard of Joe Williams, so I really had no reason to remember him. But he looked and sounded so incredibly sad, he made an impression. I can still see/hear those performances in my head, 40 years later. Music is weird. Herbie Hancock (ft. Mr. Freddie Hubbard) / "Cantaloupe Island" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B1oIXGX0Io |
Today’s Listen: Branford Marsalis -- RANDOM ABSTRACT Don’t let the title or album cover art scare you. This is great stuff. Even the Ornette Coleman tune. Sort of a tribute album in a sense. Notes by Delfeayo Marsalis, which should be required reading for all ’aficionados’. What I like best about the Marsalis family, no stuttering or tap dancing, just plain spoken English. lonely woman -- tribute to ornette coleman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62pdhdvIEMA cresent city -- tribute to john coltrane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zxJi5XrJfo yes and no -- tribute to wayne shorter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSq0ilq-cwk crepuscule with nellie -- tribute to, hmmmmm, I wonder who it could be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dc8HWCLAHKA Cheers |
Ok, Chettyphiles, it’s his birthday today! How could you not know this? 🥳 Not the most inspired playing I’ve heard from Chetty (sorry); but, hey, ‘tis the Season: https://youtu.be/IGu9s01jMJk https://youtu.be/VtTyLJsng2k |
