| Jazz for aficionados Acman3, that was about as abstract as you can get.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, my previous post was in regard to vocal VS none vocal, and the quality of jazz in the 50's and 60's, as opposed to now; nothing about who is, or is not studying jazz. Nor do I pine for that sound by current musicians; that would be imitat... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Learsfool, that was a very thought provoking article. Most people prefer words with their music, we're the ones who are different; however, in the case of jazz, musicians feed off of other musicians, there were many more jazz musicians in the 50's... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, it would take a volume of books to answer the questions you ask in regard to music and the generations. Everything, including economics and social structure has to be taken into account; music is not created in a vacuum. When I attempt to ans... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, that Red Garland is on my shopping list, thanksEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Although presently I'm focusing on jazz vocal groups, I'm also deeply moved by vocals of a religious persuasion, such as "Motherless Child" by Afro Blue. It seems that all of us were moved by that group.Never before have I been moved by vocals, mi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, since you like vocals of the religious persuasion, here's one especially for you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PF0yNKroigkEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Jazz groups are the one category we've only lightly touched on. While everyone is familiar with Lambert, Hendricks, and Ross; how about Lambert, Hendricks, and Bavan, with Clark Terry, and Coleman Hawkins. Here is "Sack Of Woe" by them. http://www... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Well fellows, in regard to my dilemma, I've done all I can do, now it's in the hands of a higher power.Rachell seems to have stirred up a lot of controversy, and that's a good thing. I find it amazing how aficionados can disagree, and at the same ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm still alive. Although life's changes put me up against a wall, I had to respond to that Rachell Farrell clip. It's what jazz is all about; she put every ounce of her heart into it, making the statement, "This is who I am".Every second of ... | |
| Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe "DC Offset"? Unless you're a technician, or at least know electronic fundamentals, leave the lid on, or take a chance on being out of big bucks. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, who would believe two guitars could make so much music. To be honest, I can't tell whether or not Paco or John is playing when I'm listening to CD or LP. I have this LP with Paco, John, and Al Di Meola, and I try to determine who is playi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I was listening to "Star Eyes" from my computer play list, and thinking that's got to be the best version of that tune I've ever heard. (I'm not even close to the computer when I listen; consequently, I can't read who's playing) Try as I might, I ... |
