Jazz for aficionados
Does anybody have this new release by Roy Hargrove & Mulgrew Miller. If so can you give a quick review of your thoughts on it? A piano trumpet duo might be challenging. Greetings, Resonance Records just released In Harmony by Roy Hargrove & Mulgrew Miller, check it out here. Here’s what they say about it: “In Harmony is the first previously unissued recording of the late trumpet star Roy Hargrove since his passing in 2018. Captured live on January 15, 2006 at Merkin Hall in New York City and September 11, 2007 at Lafayette College in Easton, PA, with the late piano great Mulgrew Miller, In Harmony is an intimate snapshot of two masters performing without a net at the top of their games. The 2 CD set is being released in cooperation with the Roy Hargrove and Mulgrew Miller Estates and includes an elaborate booklet with rare photos, an essay by acclaimed writer Ted Panken, plus interviews and statements by fellow musicians with deep connections to Hargrove and Miller such as Sonny Rollins, Jon Batiste, Christian McBride, Ambrose Akinmusire, Keyon Harrold, Kenny Barron, Eddie Henderson, and others.” |
Well its seems as if all the so-called Aficionados have jumped ship. I assume The Frogman is working / on tour. Maybe he's a hostage in North Korea, or perhaps he's planning Bay of pigs 2.0.I'm still here rok. A little busy with work now. RE frogman Here is one of his favorite tenor players at his best: (31) Those 7 Times Michael Brecker Went Beast Mode | bernie's bootlegs - YouTube And a musician explains how Michael Brecker plays a 2 - 5 - 1 and super imposing different chords over the top of what's actually written. (31) Michael Brecker's Face Melting ii-V-i On Blue Bossa - YouTube If the frogman is not on tour or vacation this post may bring a response from him. I see Marija is still here just having work issues as well. Alek is always lurking..... :-) |
