Rok, you're stretching my order list; I had forgotten just how good Maynard Ferguson really was.
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.

Maynard: Golden age of music and gear. There was so much choice. All at very reasonable prices at the audio clubs. (Had to be affordable for Military Personnel). The Sony's I referred to were the one with the Flat speakers. These I believe: https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649119232-classic_sony_apm33_speakers_flat_square_woofers_with_stands/images/729981/ Cheers |
There are strange things going on in some places on this planet, that I don't understand and I am compelled to comment on them. Since my very first memory of life on this planet, there has been nothing more fascinating than "girls". The very first time I saw a pretty little girl, I pointed at her, and told my mother I wanted a pretty little girl just like that one. I know we're not supposed to comment on anything that's not audio, so lets assume she was carrying a portable radio. (at 5 years old) How can anyone harm females just because they're females? |
