| Jazz for aficionados Leon Thomas and Count Basie go way back. Even before that, he was a high school heart throb. His bio is incomplete, because I remember something interrupting his stay with Basie, and he would have made some real money had he continued; I think h... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I listened to what you posted 3 times, and I told you it was "dreary" and I didn't like it.Whether Stan Getz made it a signature tune or not, I liked the one by "Duke Ellington" the best.I do not study jazz, anyone who wants to "study" ja... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, try Pharoah and Leon on Amazon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwKbI2Y7lCcWhen you see a picture of Pharoah with black hair, instead of gray, there is a possibility that Leon is with him. If you find Pharoah cheap used, I'll buy,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, very expensive counts me out. Look for cheap used Pharoah Sanders, I'll let you know which one's Leon is on, plus that's his best music.Since both him and Miles are from St. Louis, their tailor shouldn't be to far from me. Whenever I decid... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I hope you don't think I said I didn't like "The Peacocks" simply because you posted it. You're getting kinda weird lately. If you think that, it's what I mean by "kinda weird". The Peacocks was dreary, like a foggy, drizzly, rainy day,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm on a search for Leon on CD, and I see that he's available under Pharoah Sanders. He's cheaper going that route than just looking for Leon. If you plan on adding him to your collection, the 2fer is cheaper. A little help from my friend ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, he can certainly play the piano, and I like the music; I just can't figure why this comes under the heading "JAZZ"? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, the rest of the world must be classical musicians in jazz clothing. Why don't we ask an honest to goodness Classical musician, like Learsfool, what he thinks, and we will be able to ascertain with certainty, as to why they have gone "Ga Ga" ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, since when did Frogman become the Bible; "Frogman said the lesser known are lesser known for a good reason". While that statement in it self is gospel truth, there is the inference that they are not as good. Alex presented a guy on trumpet ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I am not going to turn this thread into another "Thrilla in Manilla", or "The Brawl of The Audiophiles". If anyone likes that sort of thing, I suggest they start another rap thread; or better yet, go to the projects in "Nawlins". If you don't wa... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, my beef is not with higher education, but with musicians who lean on higher education when they play jazz; believe me, it comes through. I do not have a short memory, it's you who are stirring the pot. Yes, it would have been much simpl... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Occasionally someone will post a musician who they think is really hot stuff, and when others disagree, they can't understand why. When I say others I'm including some other top jazz musicians. "But he can really blow the trombone", or sax, or w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I heard the classical, but I'm still waiting on the "jazz". As far as "dem dancing shoes"; I looked through my encyclopedia of dance steps, but I couldn't find anything to fit that music. I think that maybe the "Futterwacken" might be appro... |
