Frogman, you want it you got it; Kenny Garret, "Beyond The Wall". This is my favorite tune.

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.

Those reactionary chauvinists in Vienna and Berlin had better look over their shoulders. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXDT4GtKK88 Cheers |
Frogman, In the whirlwind of sounds of the quartet and the quintet [ Sanders], I always could find " grounding" in the chords Tyner was playing. I think a player like Calderazzo would have been overwhelmed in that sound, but McCoy could always be heard. I always thought the other players heard the same thing. Maybe not. It could be the way my mind dealt with the dense ideas happening all at once, |
If my memory serves me, the problem started when Coltrane started bringing in other players. Mccoy left 1st and then Elven Jones left shortly after when Coltrane started using Rashid Ali, as a second drummer. One report on Wiki, said McCoy could not hear himself, with all the sounds. Maybe someone else can add some more. I read or heard an interview a long time ago where Mcoy and Elvin said they just had problems with the direction of the music. I tried to find it on the internet, so you could see their own words, but I did not find it. |
