| Jazz for aficionados Regardless as to how many different ways that it's played, the one that was made at the "Pershing" is the definitive "Poinciana", at least it's my favorite. No matter how many times he redoes things, the first one is the best, according to me.Rec... | |

| Jazz for aficionados rpeluso, why talk to yourself, when you can talk to us? Since you have been watching this thread for a very long time, you've seen it's ups and downs. Initially this thread was designed to help "Jazz Aficionados" to acquire new music, and enjoy ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados That was the same guy I saw him with in Chicago, Othello Molineaux; he spent much time with Jaco Pastorius. I see he also worked with Eliane Elius, the lovely Brazilian vocalist; that sounds like a beautiful combination.The people went wild over ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados When I saw Ahmad live in Chicago, he was working with a guy on steel drums. Here's "Poinciana", but with steel drums, it's a lot different.That's the thing about Ahmad; he can get so many different sounds out of the same tune, that it's new all o... | |
| Jazz for aficionados As I have stated a number of times before; "you tube" enables us to get all the music we missed; I thought I had everything recorded by Yusef Lateef in this time period, but I don't have this particular record. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I was just thinking, and I want an honest answer to this question; have you ever heard any better jazz in your life, than you have since I started this thread?Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you are one of the chief deciders on this thread; why didn't you object to Jamal before I got started. Frogman posted a list to chose from, and I mentioned that I was tired of horns. No decision had been made at that time; you could have ch... | |

| Jazz for aficionados There are many reasons why this thread has lasted so long: one of them is because I have posted some of the best jazz many have ever heard; that's why the view is so high as compared to postings; another is the unwavering support by Roc, Frogman,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I'm following through on closing that big space in my collection that's missing Ahmad Jamal. I've got "'Blue Moon" ordered.I read Ahmad's booking schedule, and it included Tokyo, Antwerp, Marciac France, Vannes France, Marseille, Bangalore... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Officially the Ahmad Jamal review is over; Acman, and me simply realized we have an "Ahmad Jamal" gap in our collections that needs filling in. Feel free to post whatever you like, and we'll review it.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I have fewer of Ahmads albums than any other major jazz artist, if I only reviewed what I have in my collection, we would have been through, but the object of this thread is to add new music, and it has functioned quite well for me.Since I ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, that is so beautiful! Believe it or not, I have met a number of sax players whose last name was coleman; no not that one, he's older, they were younger; just a strange coincident.Ahmad was really digging that sax, I noted the expression on... |
