Jazz for aficionados

Music is not about "our tastes" history or filters, Angine de poitrine is not my taste, as any rock of any kind but  somebody like me can  love some rock group gifted with talent , The same is true with metal and i love for example "Nightwish" first version with the female singer.

Music is about learning as a book reading is not only about our taste and fun but about learning...Learning is way deeply more intense than just "fun" or nostalgia ...

As Acoustics is about learning not about "beautiful room panels" or about sounds, it is about the direction of sound and our ears/brain  mutual control synchronisation in time and angles in pressures zones ...

Also i am from Quebec, this is a bias favoring "angine de Poitrine" or his unknown out of Quebec creative ancestor : "l’infonie" ...

I know  also enough music to know how and why Eastern music is microtonal   then the perfect blending of Rock style with microtonality is not then about taste it is about learning ...( i love Arabic-Turkisch-Persian- sufi-Indian music from North or South-Chinese-Japan-Africa )

There is a reason why this group out of any industrial fabric or commercial mould unknown few weeks ago  blow the internet as a wave: it prove human creativity exceed A.I. imitation and perfect blending of styles. And no the costumes are funny but no musician get rich only by the power of his costumes ...

@mahgister,

The  group Angine de Poitrine is blowing up all over the internet.

Listening to Jack Walrath, Live At Smalls. 2024

With Abraham Burton, George Burton, Boris Kozlov and Donald Edwards.

Funny, how Jass was once the music of the whorehouse, the bordello, the honkytonk, devil’s music, the red light district, the music played by a group of people who were called by and with such a very derogatory word I cannot say it here on this thread. And now, it has become the music of - to coin a french term/word/phrase, the ’bourgeois’.

@curiousjim, man it’s tough keeping up with you. I am in wonderment how you find not only so much but also new Jazz to share with us here. You even have shared places where folks can go and see and hear jazz, and along the way find places where good food is served also, such as in Nashville, TN. Keep it up. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Bourgeois  had a life too:  SS officers listened Bach before killing and i am sure General Custer was able to appreciate an opera before killing Indians. They were all "want to be bourgeois" at the end... We kill for comfort...We listen music for comfort... I want to learn through my experiences...
