Jazz for aficionados
Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

Schubert, I have never been to Europe. I hear there are hundreds of beautiful places to see. Vienna is one of them. Here is a Dizzy Gillespie & Sonny Stitt live clip with good quality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZ5DS_mmZFQ And here is an album you may be interested in. Its a mid 70’s bop session with Gillespie and Stitt with an excellent rythm section: https://www.amazon.com/Bop-Session-Dizzy-Gillespie/dp/B002ADCXFK/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=sonny+stitt+and... |
schubert https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2019/09/04/vienna-remains-the-worlds-most-liveable-city From the same article: "On the EIU’s index, which ranks 140 cities on 30 factors bunched into five categories—stability, health care, culture and environment, education and infrastructure—Vienna scores a near-perfect 99.1 out of 100, putting it just ahead of Melbourne." Vienna offers so many opportunities and on top of that looks absolutely gorgeous. I could easily picture myself living there. That’s nice Dizzy/Sonny clip pjw... |
mary jo, There is no way o10 and rok are the same person. Orpheus10 strikes me as a very sensitive and intellectual man who displays empathy towards others. rok is a condescending and arrogant bigot who's posts display a pattern of narcissism. There is no way rok could write the type of posts Orpheus does. My description of rok may look abrasive but it is not as the following definitions attest to: narcissism - selfishness, involving a sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, and a need for admiration, as characterizing a personality type. Bigot - a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions. condescending - having or showing a feeling of patronizing superiority. arrogant - having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities |
Schubert, if you dont mind me (sort of) answering, I would choose Italy, for a country to live. Austria is certainly beautiful as well, but I would say that Italians are litlle bit more relaxed and open toward other people (I should not generalize, but still...) Paul, or others, if you ever decide to visit this part of the world, let me know, would be glad to show you around. Today, with booking com or arbnb platform its quite easy and cheap to find stay almost anywhere and transport is not a big cost either |
