Well, "Aficionados", while I began this journey to constantly learn, and acquire new things, (which I did) I've also learned to appreciate what I already have, and I would like to touch on that.
In the beginning, I acquired "Moods" (Gene Harris) by the "Three Sounds", and I liked it a lot. Today, I'm listening to "Moods"; it's the very same one I acquired over 50 years ago, but it sounds so much better now, primarily because I can hear it better and appreciate it more.
I'm listening to the very same "Gene Harris" as I heard then, but he sounds so much better now. (an upgrade in equipment certainly doesn't hurt) but the ability to listen more intently increases one's awareness of the best music, by the best artist. He didn't just acquire that delicacy of touch, he had it back then; I'm just appreciating it more, now.
When I think about all the records I have, and the artists that I may not have listened to intently enough, it lets me know what I'll be doing in the immediate future. If you have an "epiphany" regarding some artist or record (CD), please share it.
Enjoy the music.
