Frogman, you and Schubert should both read the thread title together, maybe it will soak in; it's not titled "Classical Music For Aficionados", it's not titled "Music for Musician Aficionados"; it's not titled; thread for "Writing Aficionados"; it's titled "Jazz For Aficionados" and all others can get lost; especially when they attempt to speak with authority.
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.

Frogman, you are always trying to "discombobulate" this "Miles" with that Miles, and the other Miles in order to get "Your" Miles on page 1, but it wont work; we all know when Miles Trolley jumped the tracks, and it just kept on going until it was way out in the middle of the cornfield. Now you think you can "nit pick" Diz somehow or another to show where Miles was better, but it won't work, not until "Donkeys fly"; seen any flying donkeys lately? |
Frogman, here is Miles Davis's last recording; Doo Bop; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZ1k_BrA8CI Here is Dizzy's last recording; we'll even let "your panel" be the judge in regard to the best "jazz" recording, and consider that musician the winner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auxl5QbT528 Enjoy the music. |
