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.

So help me God , I did not know that Sept . 30, 2021 is a first Canadian Federal Holiday and will remain so .

Not a fun one but a remorse for what they did or allowed to happen to
the native children in the for and all else done on natives .

Canadian Judges have ruled that all still alive from the schools are to receive 40,000$

Not that great things will always be there , but Canadian Govt is trying and trying hard .

This is a stream from last night including those still alive , very
interesting to those who really care . Clips are mostly on CBC which
are not for You Tube . The Prime Minister comes in about .50 , if you don't hear his speech you are a fool  .

Schubert, it does my heart good to see a government actually trying to do something to make up for past mistakes.

This statement is laughable. The entire world, and most of Canada thinks of this guy as a clown, which he is. All show, no substance. His always SAYS the right thing, but DOES absolutely nothing.


When asked, after the third incident, how many times had he done this, he answered "I don’t remember."

Trudeau in India (clown)---- Missing Indigenous women in Canada (ineptness)

Reminds of that saying, They were born on third base, but thought they hit a triple. Third base is being next to the U.S.A.

Cheers

BTW, when they actually get the $40,000, PM me with the news. As if that excuses kidnapping and murder. And this was as late as 1990s.

In regard to Lonnie Smith's recent passing; he had many different facets; my favorite was slightly different from most;

Acman, it seems that Miles made quite an imprint on Julian Lage.
