Very good record. Have you ever noticed how musicians play like the talk?

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.

Could not find this album that I have on ytube, so I will post it this way.Hello Alek. Happy your ok and thanks for posting the Dr. Lonnie Smith and his 3 Japanese friends who recorded that "LIVE JAM" -THE JAZZ FUNK MASTERS.
It was recorded live in Tokyo at the club Jirokichi and released on a Japanese label called P VINE records on LP and CD the same year. It has never been reissued. The 5 live songs are typical Lonnie Smith funk and gospel "boogie" music. I liked all of the songs. Dr. Lonnie Smiths music is never dull. I saw him live a half dozen times in NYC and I was never disappointed. He was quite the showman on the Hammond B 3. |
