Frogman, this Bud's for you, it's an orchestra, Stan Kenton's in this case; you will hear a lot of familiar names.

"The range of music called "jazz" is as wide as the Pacific Ocean...." "The ’Jazz Pistols’ and the music currently under discussion, are like two different shores of the Pacific Ocean." " ’The Three Marias’ sounds like fusion; I have to get into that ’mind set’ to appreciate it." Agree Agree Agree...yup it’s fusion, especially as Summers does it, so was surprised to discover it’s a Wayne Shorter composition (surprised because I was ignorant of WS's resume and history with Weather Report). Regarding getting into "that mind set"... Vice reversa and backatcha, O! I’m usually up for fusion but have to get into the OTHER mind set to appreciate the more traditional "jazz jazz" that most here seem to thrive on. In the middle of the Pacific, maybe this will represent something of an island to share. Make it to around 7 minutes and be rewarded with an excellent sax solo that starts around then. Hope you like it. Maybe others will too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lFYvNlrDyg&ab_channel=PatMetheny-Topic |
Ghosthouse, I got to have it. I go way back with Pat Metheney, live and on records. He's one of the most creative musicians I can think of. He comes up with music that's new and unique, it's not some kind of style; like this is "new music"; no it is simply "Pat Metheney's music". That sax was the "change up" that kept the music interesting. Pat Metheney is a master musician; that composition was cooking from beginning to end, it kept changing, but at the same time maintaining the musical flow of good sounds. I enjoyed the music. |
