Let's explore the music of Ry Cooder; he's all over the place, no matter what your groove is Ry Cooder's got it. Imagine waking up at three in the morning to find yourself in a landscape with city streets and no houses as far as the eye could see, with nothing but the light of the silvery moon. This is the music that would fit such a setting. //www.youtube.com/watch?v=050TIMlpmL0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOkXrd6eRRw0 Like I said, no matter where you want to go, Ry Cooder can take you there. Enjoy the music. |
Orpheus, have you watched this movie? It certainly explains a lot of things behind some aspects of US economy. It is a not an action movie, in fact the trailer is not true to a real tempo of the film, which is very slow, patient, and the caracters are all in service of the story (or better understanding of it) https://youtu.be/LWr8hbUkG9s However, as it is a story about US economy, I am not sure am I allowed to comment on that, since I am European? As to your perception,nobody is saying that it is 'false', when you talk about work of some late masters, its just that you are fixed on one period and couple of styles, which is perfectly all right. (like I said, that is my favourite music as well) But in the same time, it seems to me that you refusing to except that any other music that was made later in time has an equal right to be called 'jazz' Now we are coming to a 'problematic' part. When you are asked to explain which elements of music are best describing the 'jazz' that you like, or what it is the thing that it makes you like it, you simply refer to it as a 'soul'. On the oher hand, the music that you dont like you simply call 'intellectual' or 'soulless' without further analysis of elements of its 'lackings' There is no need for so many harsh words, I guess Frog.or Leafr. could simply ignored some of the coments written here and continue to write about their favourite music. I can only speak for myself, but for example, when I hear somebody praisng Keith Jarret, without knowing the work of Evans, than I am sceptical about his musical taste and his knowledge in general. But, as we all have seen, Frogman is quite good in recognising the good music from the past (aldo he dont like some of my 'forgotten' ones) and somehow I am more inclined to trust him or his taste about some contemporary music after that. The fact that I still may not like that music does not mean that that music is not good, it is quite possible that I am not 'there' yet. I am sure that we all can agree that our music taste has changed during time. So, whats the problem? |
Alex, in regard to that movie, I haven't seen it BUT I will. Even if you were an American citizen, you are not supposed to talk about fraud that insinuates the government is involved. In regard to "jazz" you must be confusing me with Rok, I have no problem with anyone's opinion about the music. Their problem is they seem to think I should learn something about music, and my reply is I DON'T GIVE A HOOT NOR HANG ABOUT LEARNING ONE WRITTEN NOTE, IS THAT CLEAR? |

I DON'T GIVE A HOOT NOR HANG ABOUT LEARNING ONE WRITTEN NOTE, IS THAT CLEAR?****** We get it! We get it! We got it a long time ago!!!! You talk about music at length. You express likes and dislikes. You talk about how the music moves you. Given all that, the way you say what you are trying to say seems just a little incredulous. Maybe "I am not interested in the Academic side of music, or music theory, or the history music" would be better. Because your all-caps statements don't seem to jive with a person that calls himself a Jazz Aficionado. Cheers |
