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.

@stuartk , for me, yes. An argument can be made that Tabackin is the better flute player, but for me (and others) Farrel is the better Jazz player. Tabackin is a more “impressive” player in that he plays with a huge sound and has a more aggressive approach same as with his tenor playing, but Farrel’s improvisations have a more sophisticated compositional approach. Both great players with different styles. Btw, Farrel was Tabackin’s mentor and helped him get established as a player and would have Farrel sub for him on gigs: https://youtu.be/1BPV1yrcsuQ?si=wQxUu9_c4Qif6YZ1

He does not moves me at all... But later i recognized the blues element present in the Stones music for sure... I did not knew blues at 14 ... When i discovered it it was with John Lee Hooker who moves me at 17 way more than the Stones... |
