Maybe not, sorry. Anyway, if not, they were from the album “My Heart Tells Me” and the cuts were “Get Out Of Town” and the album title cut.

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.

When I said someone is brilliant it bothers me not that someone else thinks otherwise . I said sucks because it it just a word to me, we all have a right to like what we like .At least in music . What does bother me is to explain why I like them so much . IMO Music is one , perhaps THE great gift to man from God and I don’t , perhaps can’t, explain, what I just like what I like anymore than I can God. To me Jussi Bjorling has the most beautiful voice I ever heard. No doubt Pavarotti would get more votes , and deserve them . IMO Bach is the most profound composer who ever lived or will, if someone thinks it Mozart or Beethoven , that is up to them . In Jazz I like Mingus and Sunny Stitt the best. Of course all music lovers ,which we all are , love players and composers by the hundreds , perhaps the thousands, in all the genres we love . So be it , takes all kinds . {Except Heavy Metal lovers } https://youtu.be/yFtZutSgmmY |
To me Jussi Bjorling has the most beautiful voice I ever heard.Your choices make perfect sense if someone think about them... We are all different and because i like to discuss a bit too much, (my job was to teach by arguments) myself i like when someone contradict me though....It is an occasion to discuss... 😊😁😊 But some people are, like you, with "big heart" and dont like this so much and i understand why... Anyway, all our choices are "absolute" because they are motivated by our own history...And we must all learn WHY someone we know like something or not and we must understand why, because partaking something with him him make our world more vast and less small.... I like that when you say that Jussi Bjorling is the most beautiful voice ever, because it make me conscious of other possibilities of experience unknown to me and mysterious.... And anyway anyone with ears know that Bjorling is a very great singer.... Then why not listen to him with "others" ears than ours for an hour and learn something out of our world sometimes? Or discover surprizingly that perhaps ,yes, Bjorling is the most extraordinary voice, why not? For Bach you are more than right in my book.... And your choices of Mingus and Sony Stitt are very interesting and surprizing for me by far....I cannot wait to listen to these 2 in another "body" and "soul" than only mine this time....( yes it is possible! We all can listen with someone BESIDE ourself, with him in ourself) It is called learning..... Thanks for your great passion.....It is very important for all here.... |
I think that if you start to try to know why you like to know why you like this and that you become some body else. Not a good idea IMO . If you pray enough , Jesus will let you know. Can’t speak for other religions . I did know that when others said something about being somewhere in six months the old soldier in me laughed and said ONE month tops ! |
