Keegiam, there is no way I would ever want you to have another "letdown"; I know how painful that can be; consequently, I can not risk another post.
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.

"Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?” Ghosthouse, the song that makes me most aware of time is "Speak Low". Speak low when you speak, love Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon Speak low when you speak, love Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we´re swept apart, too soon Speak low, darling, speak low Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is Near, tomorrow is here and always too soon Time is so old and love so brief Love is pure gold and time… More I relate many songs to my personal experiences, maybe this song more than most. "Time is so old and love so brief Love is pure gold and time a thief" Does anyone think of that fact when their young? We´re late, darling, we´re late The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon. My one regret is the fact that I was not more aware of all of those things. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxB2hZ8tB8M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iWHd1n1s8E These ladies were aware of those facts. |
