| Jazz for aficionados If I said anything that would be contrary to what "Bird" said, I would of course be wrong.If you think I said something contrary to what "Bird" said, you misinterpreted what I said.Enjoy the music | |
| Jazz for aficionados It's a funny thing about dope and jazz musicians; most people think that somehow the dope helps them to become fantastic musicians. I don't know how they can think that, when the musicians themselves will tell you otherwise. "Bird" was a "junky"... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Speaking of rehearsals, the "greats" would meet at Rudy's, discuss what they were going to play, and jam for the recording; you might have one of those records in your collection.Ray Charles hired a new musical director, who complained because Dav... | |
| Jazz for aficionados How's this for unusual music? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw9-RE80EEg | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, no, it hasn't been done, and Frogman would be the person who could shed light on the subject.During the time I was in close contact with a jazz musician in 69, he never rehearsed or held rehearsals. The first set I witnessed; him, and... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Alex, I've liked Flamenco since childhood, when the only time I heard it was in a bullfighting movie set in spain, or a cowboy movie in Mexico.Rok, insisted on "classical jazz" because of the title of the thread, and that's how I got in the habit ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, when I'm in a "Flamenco" mood, here's another guitarist I go to along with Paco. Otmar Liebart has a kind of forlorn sound sometimes, like way out in the middle of nowhere, but he is most certainly different from any guitarist I can thin... | |
| My final table , hopefully ! Saki, I'm going to give you one of the strangest reasons for upgrading a cartridge. The man who was responsible for the quality of my favorite cartridge, died not too long ago. That's why I'm upgrading my cartridge.It wont be long, and all the c... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, I wasn't going to respond to that post, because I have nothing significant to say in regard to Michael Jackson; as it is, I'm responding to your post to let you know that you have company; just not our bag, or maybe we're too old, or b... |
