| Jazz for aficionados Rok, although I'm a big Bobby Hutcherson, and Harold Land fan, I didn't like the "Timeless" I found; however, I did find "Delilah" by the Bobby Hutcherson quartet. This music is absolutely amazing. It's current, that's what makes it so amazing. Wh... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I found three similar CD's with different release dates, and Harold Land looked old on one of them. I need numbers for the exact CD you have. | |
| Jazz for aficionados You got it. | |
| New cart for under 1K You would be astonished at the improvement you would get with a Grado Sonata, and it sounds better on vocals than more expensive cartridges. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I've been listening to a CD that I don't even know how it got into my collection, but I like it. Nowhere do I even remember purchasing "Mardra & Reggie Thomas"; but now, her soothing vocals take me places, and even her selection of songs ... | |
| Is soundstage just a distortion? Learsfool, your answer depends on the "price" of the cartridge and the analog rig, as well as the setup; but we are assuming the set up is perfect in any case. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, this would have to be placed into a category I don't even have; "feel good music", although I could sure use it about now.I saw the musical "Ain't Misbehavin" performed locally, and I left all smiles. It's for sure Fats Waller's music had tha... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Charles1dad, Jack Sheldon was primarily known on the West Coast; good musicians could make a living, and never leave the LA area. Yes, he had a beautiful tone.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I've been out of town for a day, but I'm going to catch up and not slight anyone's posts. Rok, your honesty is what makes your reviews so good; "you calls em like you sees em".I thought, without listening for myself, "Jazz At The Pawnshop" was one... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, as good as your reviews have been, this is the best yet. Although it's almost impossible to know who's playing what, it's all good. Ray has not played jazz this good before, nor since; he had so much soul, and he was young then.The blues, jaz... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Oscar Pettiford is the best bassist ever". Now, somebody is going to tell me, "You can't say that". Oscar Pettiford is the best bassist ever! I thought they didn't hear me the first time.When it comes to this music, my opinion is the only one tha... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Cymbop, "Favela" is my favorite cut on that LP.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yes we can all be glad for the Frogmans expertise. This is the first time I had anyone explain how the musicians make music.Here's Hog Callin Blues. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=donDOIiuWc0Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Some jazz artists I've known personally, were gifted, as opposed to talented, or practiced hard. They could improvise on their chosen musical instruments and mesmerize a crowd on any given night. I decided not to name them, because I'm going to gi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Nature Boy" by Ike Quebec is an interesting version of this tune. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tk6dYP_uhsSince I posted "Heavy Soul" two miles back and it got missed, here it is again. I especially like Freddy Roach on organ. They knew Ike was... |
