Rok, I had some kind of weird problems that my "Geek" straightened out. He said he would help, but he wont be home until 4:30 or five this afternoon.
Jazz for aficionados
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.

I know I read this somewhere before, but I can't find anything to authenticate it, so you will just have to take my word for it. When Rudy Van Gelder recorded, a red light came on to signal; time to wrap it up. On Joe Hendersons solo on "Idle Moments", he was sounding so good, that Rudy just let him blow past the allotted time, and didn't turn on the red light. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMiLAxMnoqE Enjoy the music. |
If you guys are having trouble understanding that stuff, it's not because you're dumb. My "Geek" cleared my problem, and I don't even know what he's talking about when he's talking about computers; it's like he's speaking a different language. I have never had more problems understanding anything than I do this computer stuff, and they give you 5 choices of ways to clear "browser cookies". I hope you get it cleared up soon. |
I reset IE Deleted temporary files Deleted and installed AOL a few times Deleted cookies Which worked? I have not a clue, but I suspect AOL was the culprit, along with The Frogman. If a person posts using a mobile device, maybe it would be a good ideal to state that in the post. I am now back in business. Cheers. Thanks for the info O-10. |
