| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you mentioned the flood but you didn't show any pictures. Here are some pictures and music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBfYmxrULlQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EV4xdgPIVoEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados At different times I'm able to hear different artists. Today is a good Brubeck day; I can hear him, Paul, and the rest of the crew as good as the day I bought them. The submissions by "Satch" sounded exceptionally well. Since I'm not a fan of the ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, as I stated before, "Frogman has a way with words". He certainly expressed my thoughts in regard to both Charlie Ventura and the Beys. I believe you've sold the Beys as well as they can sold in this room.Acman, I never thought about it, but I... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I appreciate your honesty; if ken Burns was a gift from my son, I would cherish it to death. Nica's book is not in the same category."Charlie Ventura": he answered many of our personal questions in regard to how advanced we are in "Modern Jaz... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, my post was meant to inform, and criticize Ken Burns in regard to us. While programs like Ken Burns are excellent for many others, I feel we are far too advanced for those types of programs; our discussions should be more into the "voices" of... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, aficionados don't intellectualize the music we call jazz. Before "you tube" we were limited to words, which are a horrible way to communicate music. Now we can communicate with music, it makes statements that words can not be found to express... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Only musicians would notice something like that musical similarity between "Night in Tunisia" and "East of Suez", but not many people other than musicians are familiar with "East of Suez".That was when Miles had something so special, that not even... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I find it hard to believe this is a current album as well as he's playing. I've seen him live many times, good clean living has really paid off; while the other musicians might fraternize after the set, Ahmad was on his way home; that was w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Life is funny sometime, and you guys are living it with me in real time.I said I remembered "East of Suez", not Charlie Ventura, because I don't. Right now I'm exploring "You tube" and what's available for purchase. Are any of you guys familiar wi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados It's as if someone else, "not me" posted my post. I say that because I'm learning as much about it, as if someone else posted it. As I stated, the title of the song was all that was relevant, I didn't even know it was "Charlie Ventura" playing. Yo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The first jazz record I distinctly remember was "Jazz of Two Decades". Although it was a compilation, the cut that stuck in my mind was "East of Suez". At that time, who was playing what was irrelevant. I guess I was in 10th grade then, and I want... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, music convey's emotion, paints pictures, and tells stories, even without words; but not everyone is in tune to the stories it tells, that's why they attempt to tell sad stories with happy music. If that person happens to be a musician, I ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, believe it or not, this is the first time I heard the original; that piano does even more than the vocal, it captures "The Blues In The Night" while simultaneously playing "Since I Fell For You", and her vocals convey that hopeless feeling of... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, since the CD was sitting on the player when I read your suggestion, it was easy to follow. "Sister Sadie" was as jazzy as Horace Silver intended it to be. That interplay between the sisters and brother was boss.I really liked the scat singing... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "The Jazz Classics", are quite often short, but very profound stories about the age old "male, female" relationship. "Since I Fell For You", is just such a story."Since I Fell for You" is a jazz and pop standard. The blues ballad was composed by B... |
