Jazz for aficionados
Acman, I own that one plus quite a few others by Al Di Meola; I don't know why, but they sounded better when a very good friend of mine came over with medicinal herbs for my bad back, although when I get in a nostalgic mood, they still sound pretty good. This was "Da bomb"; "Visions of The Emerald Green Beyond" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CQJd7Y6sO8 You have to listen to this one all the way through, I guarantee it will alter your mood. Enjoy the music. |
Rok, I got Lee Morgan, this collection had many tunes by Lee Morgan that I never heard before, he had jazz in his bones; I've seen one other musician like this, I'm talking about when they play their instrument, jazz comes out, that's the way Lee Morgan is, no matter what he plays, it's quite listenable. I think we both suspected this. If you're looking for all his best tunes, you can bypass this collection. Enjoy the music. |
Jzzmusician, you and Frogman are going to have to get together and clarify the definition of "Fusion"; now when you add "any" two different elements you're talking about "fusion", but it took on a different meaning when referring to music. Are you saying this is that "fusion"? Although I like the music, this "fusion" thing is a little hazy, unless you are talking about the kind of fusion Diz is famous for. Enjoy the music. |
o10, Dizzy was instrumental with fusing Afro-Cuban rhythms with jazz and that's why I posted it. I realize that the type of fusion we're discussing refers to a different type of genre but at the same time I thought it would be interesting to visit a type of fusion that started, I think sometime in the 40's and is now widely accepted. Just a different perspective. Bob |
