Frogman, I gave your post on Tom Harrell a long review, I don't know what happened to it, but now I have to do it over again.
Enjoy the music.
Jazz for aficionados
Frogman, on "Moon Alley", by Tom Harrell; this has the same feel as Herbie Hancock's "Maiden Voyage", but with much better sonics and recording quality; I like it. The title of the tune "Moon Alley"; are we in an alley to the moon, is the alley just brightly lit by moonlight; when I combine "Maiden Voyage" and "Moon Alley", we're on a Maiden Voyage in an alley that takes us to the moon; got to use your imagination. Enjoy the music. |
Mdemaio, I first became aware of Dusko Gojkovic from his work in the trumpet section of Maynard Ferguson's big band. A Serbian national he is a very nice player with a lovely melodic sense and an affinity for Brazilian rhythms. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jl5m_3HIBa0 Enjoy the Tom Harrell set at the Vanguard. I am planning on being there over the weekend. My favorite place to hear jazz and one every jazz lover should make a point of visiting at some point; great vibe. |
Thanks so much for the link Frogman. Just love Gojkovic's tone & willingness to experiment. I find myself gravitating toward Europeans in general lately in my listening...just recently got hooked on Borje Fredriksson and Jonas Kullhammar after a trip to Stockholm/Copenhagen this summer. Great stuff...so much to explore! Thanks again, Matt |
