Sorry, can't do. Attempts at dialogue with you, O-10, are utterly pointless. In my opinion you have shown that your intentions are not good. Either you deliberately distort what has been said or you are incapable of understanding. Either way, pointless.

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.

Horace Silver, minus The Blues, Funk and Eastern Tinge, equals: Horace Silver -- THE HARDBOP GRANDPOP This is not my favorite track, but they do 'quote' O-10's favorite song at 3:57. A first in Jazz I believe. And mercifully, also the last. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nSPmSh0jPQ&list=PLKITiLQ_1fJPWQYJne7OvgOcCVNjAxd_o&index=3 Excellent playing by all, but not The silver we all know and Love. This one was recorded just before 'Jazz has a sense of humor'. The Silver CD I play the least. Roditi on Trumpet. Brecker on Tenor Sax. Cheers |
Released in 2015 set, from 1977. The 70's and 80's recordings were not kind to this legend, Glad to have this live set. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrpcrovnUjk |

Acman posted "Graffiti Blues" by Blue Mitchell on 4/11/96, and it was released in 1973. Me and my buddies had what we called the jazz posse in 1973. When one of us bought a new album, the first thing we did, was to get on the phone and call for a gathering of "The Jazz Posse". Of course we did a lot more than just review a record, maybe we sampled some good wine, or whatever else that was available for sampling; anyway we really looked forward to these gatherings. One of the reasons I'm mentioning this, is because of the "alert" resources I had available in 1973, anytime a boss LP came up that I didn't know about, there was a very good reason for it; either it wasn't released at that time, or there was almost no exposure. Another reason I'm mentioning this is because someone asked why didn't some of us buy "new" music. When I'm constantly discovering music like this, I don't have funds for new music, another reason is, this is so much better than "most" new music; not all new music of course, but rarely has anyone come up with any new music that's worthy of my limited funds. Who was the best; Donald Byrd or Blue Mitchell? Does it really matter? Enjoy the music |
