Soul Jazz:
May I recommend Houston Person and Joey DeFrancesco. Can't have Soul-Jazz without great Sax play.
Cheers

Qdrone, this is about Grant Greens music; it wasn't necessary for us to know about Grant Greens habit. orpheus10 2,793 posts 01-23-2011 10:51am Qdrone, could you name the stuff to avoid, I would like to buy it. qdrone 799 posts 01-23-2011 1:29pm Anything that says never released or only released in Japan. Or in box sets where you have newly discovered tracks (Mosiac has one or two sets with Green) I actualy posted for everyone to understand the times these recordings were made,heroin was problem among many musicians,I'm sorry that your so full of yourself that you thought i was just responding to you. Well now that Mr. Qdrone, has told you what records to avoid, maybe you can evaluate those records and get back to me, Mr. Frogman. Enjoy the music. |
Frogman, I believe that Green’s playing can not be chronologically divided on jazz (ante ’soul’) and post ’jazz’ period. I have just checked some of the dates where he played in that style on others people albums, like with Lou Donaldson, and its obvius that while on his solo projects he was in ’jazz’ , on other occasions he was already in ’soul jazz’ or what ever we should call it, and those albums were recorded as early as 1962. like ’Natural Soul’. https://youtu.be/o4tIhsfcxyM Probably the ’jazz scene’ was never so pure, or it was bigger than the audience, so there was no big enough market to sustain all that. I guess that is one of the reasons that contributed to change in styles (for worst,imho) in years to come. As for George Benson, I was never his fan. This would be my pick. If I have not mentioned him before, this is a must opportunity. Here is the link Ivan Joe Jones https://youtu.be/kUVNIJl6h38 https://youtu.be/8PleEvRgGOc https://youtu.be/sOiPlxCqXUA |
