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.

Kid is happy, that's important. Birthdays should last longer. Now back to regular schedule... pjw, those are awesome clips you posted, you do know I like those dynamic duo, Rodrigo Y Gabriela and I especially admire her, she is very confident when playing fast and her stamina, the ability to play well for a long period of time is respectful. And of course, the grandmasters... |
You have no idea how precious this is to me; https://downbeat.com/news/detail/john-coltrane-out-of-obscurity I bought this album shortly after it was released in 1960. There is no way I can find words to explain how different this album sounded to me then, and how it sounds to me now. Then, I had a one piece wooden record player with an astatic cartridge. Now, I have an "audiophile" rig that would take a whole page to describe. That album sounded better to me then, than it would on the worlds best audiophile rig now. Here is the album I'm talking about; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6NCx0wcrC4&list=PLC9h9deIXsDsBiB50lJRZjdPkU51c1gfF |
