I mentioned "glass packs" and not everyone knows what those are. This video demonstrates "glass packs' which were "James Dean" cool.

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.

That guy in the video has super bad taste, you can tell that by the comments section, he liked what sounded like a broken muffler. However, those 'glass packs' duplicated the sound I was talking about; picture that sound coming from a 56 convertible Chevy; https://www.google.com/search?q=56+convertible+chevy&rlz=1C1CHBD_enUS804US804&oq=56+converti... |
First time I’ve ever seen him use a capo - I’m sure he did it often, but it’s a novelty for me.Yep, not usual position. But that’s clearly because of the singer. It lets Paco to adjust the key he is playing in, in order to match with the voice of the singer better, otherwise he would have to play (meaning learn to play) the piece, transposed in another key. Capo lowers the action on the guitar (by pressing the strings more near to frett board), sometimes making the playing harder. Anyway, Capo is so dam* practical. ******** And thanks inna. It is always nice to listen the master of the guitar. |
