Jazz for aficionados

pryso, you are so lucky for having dad like that. Mine was not interested in the music. A practical, hardheaded man that mostly if not only, had his work on his mind. In order to survive so he said. O yes, he survived but at what cost?
To grow with the music from the early age is a great privilege...
I thank you for the clip, it is as if I am listening the song with you and your dad, somewhere long time ago...it is like being on a Sentimental journey which reminds me of...

(shaking my head to wake myself up....)

frogman, you devil in disguise, lol, I had to google to find the true meaning of your ’WMRD’. :))
"White Man’s Rhythm Disease/WMRD: the poor disease that effects more than 90% of white people except for the occasional "oreo case" in which a white person can dance just as good as a black person; also known to the less challenged community as "white boy can’t dance"

You surely know that singing ahead of the beat gives more of a propulsive feel, like constantly moving forward. So often singers (referring to pro - singers) do that deliberately...But I can accept the fact that the guy cannot sing/dance. :)

p.s.
Do you dance well? I challenge you to dance with me. (But if you have big feet maybe we should dance separately.)

pryso, your record prioritization “system” makes sense.

**** variety is the key word -- enough difference in other releases to make more than one worthwhile for me. ****

And sometimes the variety goes to places we don’t like. Curious, do you consider this record to be an “earlier recording” and pre-“sheets of sound”. I find that Trane fans draw the line at different points of his evolution.

acman3, nice record. The most that I have ever enjoyed Cecil Payne’s playing. Thanks! I am hoping when you have the liner notes you can solve this little mystery. At first I thought there was an uncredited alto player on the session eventhough Cecil Payne is listed on alto which is rare unto itself. On the second tune one can here an alto along with trumpet and baritone playing the melody. Then later, at 20:14 the alto starts to play a one chorus solo before the baritone finishes his solo (several choruses). They overdubbed the alto unless there was a mystery alto player.

mary_jo, that’s quite a challenge! I would take you up on it, but here there is only one person with a reputation for dancing skill and that would be our OP. O-10 has been known to bust a few moves while hanging with Saharan tribes. Even so, I would much prefer to not dance seperately. I don’t have big feet; much to my wife’s chagrin 🤔.

Oops, sorry for the bad link:

frog, that was OK.  I could enjoy listening to it but wouldn't feel moved to buy the album so I could hear it on my system anytime I chose.

Also I realize perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned the "sheets of sound".  I remembered hearing that term referencing some of 'Trane's playing a long time ago and associate it with his performances with what sounds to me like simply flurries of notes.  Those are far from favorites.  But reading on Wikipedia I see that phrase was first applied in 1958.  Many of my recordings (which I do enjoy) of/with him were produced after that.  So it was a false benchmark.

My taste favors his blues and ballad work, such as "Ole'", "My Favorite Things", "Plays The Blues", "+ Johnny Hartman", "Ballads", "Monk & Coltrane at Carnegie Hall", etc.

:) ok, i’ll take your word for it.

So O-10 is a dancer? Few moves are barely enough (:)) but now, when you have mentioned this, his writing style on this forum ’reminds me’ of him as if wearing a suit for dancing, showing the elegancy while moving smoothly along the dance floor. He has something special.

p.s. sorry, can’t picture him in a tribe...:)
