| Jazz for aficionados Rok, thanks a lot for that supporting link on Oliver Sain. He looked the same as he looked on that interview the last time I saw him; he was in the hot tub looking fit as a fiddle (however fit that is) and we talked for a long time about when he ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Oliver Sain was another local musician who was in popular demand around town, and one I had the good fortune to have a long chat with.He was sitting in the hot tub at the spa, and I recognized him. Since I had gone to the clubs that he played dow... | |
| Jazz for aficionados That first one we saw was probably due to some "Hissy fit" Paul Desmond was having about Joe Morello. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpZHUVjQydITrane at his best.When you hear any of the top 100, you don't have to ask "WHY"?... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This one is from the LP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzpnWuk3RjU | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, believe it or not, this is better than the original https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El3lMf_Mfhc | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you're right on time, I wandered the exact same thing.I'm going to find another one, back in a minute | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I was comparing Nica's book to the 100 best jazz tunes of the 50's, and noticed there is an incredible, almost 1 on 1 correspondence to the two; practically all of the people in her book, are represented in best jazz tunes of the 50's.I didn'... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn't "April fool day". Since that's not it.... I'm going to pass on this one, and let Frogman make the judgement. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I have seen more complaints about me than you can shake a stick at. Is this thread titled "What's wrong with Orpheus" or "Jazz For Aficionados"? If it's the first, a lot of people are batting 100, but if it's the latter, they have failed to... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, have you ever noticed that the people who complain about what I talk about, never have anything to talk about themselves. Right now I'm listening to "Moanin". The same one that's on the album, the album that's better than KOB. Every time B... | |
| Jazz for aficionados That was a fun clip, was it from a movie? I enjoyed it; in these time we certainly need a lot more uplifting fun type of music, and there was nothing more fun than the "Boogie Woogie".Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I hear you Rok; no body seems to be happy after we diverge; but we'll get Alex's input on this, we might even get some "wire worshipers" input, they always show up when there's a disagreement; do you think they'll show up now?Maybe we should run t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, if you want to pursue this conversation according to the book, we could begin with "Ragtime" and Scott Joplin, followed by New Orleans jazz styles; which migrated to Chicago, and became "Chicago Jazz Styles", that was followed by "Swing",... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rock, when I was digging "Peanuts" I had to darken that peach fuzz over my top lip, and wear a hat to look older, and hope no one ever asked for ID at the clubs he played.Me and "Peanuts" were a lot younger then, and of course him and his band wer... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman and Learsfool, an even better practice time was when he was sleeping; he could dream practice the whole performance. Why didn't I think of that. As usual, the Frogman and Learsfool are right. |
