Jazz for aficionados

Rok, I understand, my last post implied there was a difference between the Republican, and Democratic parties; maybe there was once upon a time, but as far as I'm concerned they both are politicians, who are only for politicians.

When I was a kid shooting marbles, we had something called "Hobble squabble", and when that was yelled out, everybody pounced on the marbles in the ring to see who could get the most; today, that's the way it is with the Democratic and Republican Parties.

Rok, I will retract anything you find that is incorrect; simply point it out to me.



Enjoy the music.

The Constitution believes in States Rights.  All powers not given to the Federal Government belong to the several States.

The democratic party was destroyed in the South by LBJ's civil rights programs.   BTW, passed thru the congress by Republicans.   He said it would happen, and he did it anyway.  He should be a hero to black America, but he is not.   Guess they can't get pass that drawl.  Instead they go ga-ga over Kennedy and Clinton who never did anything for civil rights.

Union members no longer matter.   They just got too greedy.  The only union Reagan destroyed, was the air traffic controllers union.   I thought it was GREAT!!! 


*****  Since he opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it didn't matter that he opposed unions; as long as he was for "States Rights", which was a euphemism for lynching blacks with impunity. *****

Does not matter what he opposed in 1964.   He was not president or a member of the Federal government.   The states right comment is just stupid.

You should lay off that democratic, left wing, looney-tune, kool aid.  The threat to this country is not coming from the Right.  Look at Europe.

Btw, years later when the Police Chief in Meridian, Mississippi was a black man, one of the first people he hired as deputy, was one the men that was involved in, and stood trial for the murders in Philadelphia, Mississippi.   Of course he was proven guilty beyond a doubt by the FBI evidence, but found not guilty by the good folks of Mississippi.   Go figure.

Cheers

Rok, "Hit don't make no difference now"; the entire south is on food stamps.


Enjoy the music.

Rok, this is not the first time this trolley jumped it's tracks and it won't be the last time. Would you kindly go back to my post at 3:32 PM today. That was the last post I made that is "applicable" to this thread; it was about the bass clarinet, an interesting instrument.



Enjoy the music.

Bass Clarinet:

The first clip was interesting and informative.  The one from Korea was OK also.  You know I liked the Mingus the best.  A real rhythm section. I still think Dolphy would have been even better on Sax although he played great on the bass clarinet.

It still sounds like an interloper in a Jazz group.

Cheers
