Now we await the deluge of "why do you bother' or "they are so arrogant" or "call the administrators" or well, you get the drift.

Jazz for aficionados
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.

Frogman, as far as I am concerned; and I don't mean for it to be offensive, but it's real. I preface this statement with the big "I", meaning one person, and one person only. With all the musical knowledge you and Learsfool have combined, if you can not put it together to make a sound equivalent to this, it's moot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bzgyO6ndjo Now I know Learsfool is going to tell me he's got students who can produce music equivalent to this, so I'll excuse him. The bottom line is the music, not the nuts and bolts. Enjoy the music. |
Hard feelings? No way. You are a treasure on this thread. A man who truly knows and loves music, and wants to share that with others. Where would we be without you. But, Fusion still sucks, unless, it's not considered Jazz, then it's just another genre. The reason? It's not a natural progression of Jazz. It's creation had more to do with the amount of money being made by Rock groups on tour, versus the amount of money being made by Jazz players, esp as the popularity of Jazz declined. Like the Frankenstein of music. Rock damaged or destroyed a lot. Jazz, Rock&Roll, Soul, R&B, Country. Criminal. Cheers |
O-10, like you, I don't mean this to be offensive. If you want an honest answer, please try again because I have no idea what it is your asking. I hope it's not what it appears you're asking, because if it is, it is one of the most nonsensical things I have ever read. Equivalent to: what on earth does that mean? |
