That will be 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.

Julian "Cannonball" Adderley PHENIX Cannonball(soprano and alto), Nat(cornet), George Duke(keyboards & synthesizers), Mike Wolff(keyboards), Sam Jones(acoustic bass), Walter Booker(acoustic & electric bass), Louis Hayes(drums), Roy McCurdy(drums), Airto Moreira(percussion, conga drums) Fantasy Records April 1975 / 1999 Julian "Cannonball" Adderley died in August 1975 Almost like a greatest hits issue, but this is not a reissue of previously released performances, all of these versions were recorded in 1975. Four moths before his death. As you can see, the lineup is very different. An overview.

You people are bored. Something different. You don't expect this from me, I guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFclpoxI_-M&list=FLHAEL8Iwz684WaGFx1rQchA&index=14&ab_ch... |
Nat Adderley WORK SONG Nat(cornet), Wes Montgomery(guitar), Bobby Timmons(piano), Sam Jones or Ketter Betts(cello or bass), Percy Heath(bass), Louis Hayes(drums) Riverside / Original Jazz Classics 1960 / 1989 Notes: "This is an album with a sound you are guaranteed not to have heard before, featuring a distinctive and fascinating front-line blend in which the melody instruments --- the three "horns", you could say---are cornet, guitar and cello! Admittedly, the search for 'new sounds' in modern Jazz has sometimes led to little more than arbitrary and contrived novelty effects. But on the other hand, when all the ingredients are right the result can be just such a musically valid and excitingly different 'new sound' as Nat Adderley has come up with here.-- Orrin Keepnews work song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqUd7gXxqmc my heart stood still https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyhGSG33xfs mean to me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KyJ2mSlzbU I've got a crush on you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIYfFHmslNg sack of woe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg3DBpFjGJQ Cheers |
