I’m about half way through Conception Of Thought and I am enjoying it very much.
Thanks for the suggestion. Hearing new to me music, keeps it all fresh.
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.

Haven’t heard that one. BTW, another excellent record featuring Ralph Moore is Kenny Barron’s "Other Places": https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kenny+barron+other+places I will attempt to restrain myself from bombarding you with further suggestions, as the Penguin has ( I presume) already provided you with a ton of options! ;o )

Well, OK -- if you insist! Sticking to the Ralph Moore theme, here's a live JJ Johnson date with a killer group of sidemen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoYmdoOoOto JJ Johnson: Trombone Ralph Moore: Sax Victor Lewis: Drums Bass: Rufus Reid Piano: Stanley Cowell

i go on listening to my Sipiagin collection...Here he play with a german saxophonist leader... This one album is very good to my taste... On my new improved 4 inches self powered speakers in their acoustic corner in my basement and celestial in my K340 headphone...😊 My audiophile heaven is in a basement corner... 😁 I like hammond organ very much as in this album ... Jazz at his best for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9BkxUeMqZQ
I go on also with Wayne Shorter but for now i cannot recommend one in particular... I like when sax and trumpet are in duos in some Shorter albums ... |
