Jazz for aficionados
While I'm not a big band addict, there are exceptions; this is one of them, it's "Gerry Mulligan and his Concert Jazz Band". His sound is so original, without a doubt he is one of the top baritone sax players in jazz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwSdd0tC-cY Here he is with a most beautiful version of "Shadow of your Smile" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kpzbBZyF50 "Bernie's Tune" is a jumping number done by a lot of great artists; unfortunately I can't find all of them, but this is one of the best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywIiXU94RX8 Enjoy the music |
These are two cuts from Wyntyon's new Christmas CD. I am posting them because they are great. The entire CD is. Ain't got it git it. But mainly, I would like The Frogman to comment on the body language and facial expressions of the other players when someone is soloing or the singers are singing. Is this real emotion / interest ? Notice the way Wynton looks at the Trumpet soloist on the Salvant cut, and the Trombone leaning over to 'hear' the alto on the Porter cut around 2:10. Also, His fellow sax players seemed to be very impresssed and supportive.. Is the piano player the coolest guy in Jazz, or what? Ever notice how big guys make the alto seem like a toy How is Jazz at Lincoln Center perceived among the artistic elite in NYC? Give us your thoughts on all this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBt9DQJOO-4&index=2&list=RDGnshBIuu97Q porter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnshBIuu97Q&list=RDGnshBIuu97Q&index=1 salvant Cheers |
