Thank you 0-10, you got it well with Deodato...
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.

Inna, that is fantastic piece and video clip. Those photos, the atmosphere and the music that goes along, that is precisely what I am looking for. I can't figure out why my jazz guru never sent me that... https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/ascenseur-pour-lechafaud-miles-davis/amp... |
O-10, that is very kind of you but I have to disappoint you because I am definitely not the type you're looking for. Alex saw me in live, I am not his type, Fro saw me on the internet while performing, he says that I am ok, but every woman with a proper make up and under proper light looks ok. So, with an average look and very bad temper, this woman advise you better to run and hide while you still can. :-) Only the men that like my specific type (I do not fulfil this first condition with you), older than me, very wise and extremely self-confident can handle all this, others I simply "destroy". Ok, not like that but it is not far from that. Other than that, I am quite lovely. :---))) |
Today's Listen: Marcus Roberts -- IF I COULD BE WITH YOU Excellent notes, but very difficult to read. "....I would eventually like to be able to play two solos simultaneously that evoke contrasting moods. For maximum freedom, I would like to be able to do this at any velocity. I think that would be a true contribution." As the OP might say, no comment. Thankfully we aren't there yet, soooooooo preach, reverend preach https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eBzd31BrFE&t=97s mood indigo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5i7yyjv_j8 just a closer walk with thee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAwmwM9WMew carolina shout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YYpfsD71Mo country blues https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk9BNPtD5kM keep off the grass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2StOt7-Yqg And 14 more! All short and sweet. Some are very close to the Jazz Big Bang. Cheers |
