I remember that album cover with the bags of beans, I bought that at the BX on Scott AFB in 1960. My favorite cuts are "Sandra's Blues", and "Indians Blues"; that's as good as it gets.
Enjoy the music.
Jazz for aficionados
*****I bought that at the BX on Scott AFB in 1960.

Good Grief! :) I now understand why so much of the stuff I like, you find boring. You were there long before me. Indian and Sandra are my favorites also. Cheers |
Rok, fortunately, good music never gets old, that music is just as young as it was the day I bought it. Here's another artist, "Ike Quebec" I was into at that time. Ike didn't make his best music alone, he had some very good help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Soul_(Ike_Quebec_album) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Soul_(Ike_Quebec_album) Milt Hinton, is someone we haven't discussed; he was the bassist on "Heavy Soul". If we haven't discussed him, that means he didn't get enough recognition. While we can't change the past, we can rectify our oversight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9vicYoVsg0 Enjoy the music. |
Milt Hinton: Another great from the State of Mississippi. Where would music in this country be without Mississippi? Guess we would all be jamming and dancing to the Beer Barrel Polka. Nice clip. Nice Joke about the cemetary. That's one reason I try to stay away from those places. You are correct about great music never aging. Great Art never ages. Some folks seem to think music is like Science & Technology, the newer the better. Wrong answer. Music is Art. The Mona Lisa, LvB's 9th, West End Blues etc...... will be great forever! And as they say, that's a long, long time. Cheers |
Rok, have you noticed I'm making a lot of mistakes I never used to make? I believe Milt Hinton has identified the reason why. Here's what should have been on my last post, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwc1bTn7Fd8 Enjoy the music. |
