| Jazz for aficionados Great post, Chazro. Thanks! | |
| Jazz for aficionados I don't necessarily disagree with you; but, remember O-10 said "new Cuban music". If that is the style that you prefer, there are better examples (the singing, for starters, is pretty weak on the Bauza clip); more to come. For now, here is another... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10, Afro Cuban All Stars is a great place to start; I will let you take the lead with that. Their great sound is, overall, more traditional than this band, NG La Banda, who were responsible for literally creating "timba", the hottest musical sty... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I completely understand. I'm not exactly constantly running for my Dolphy records when I can listen to so many others. But, man, that solo in that Mingus clip is so out and bizarre that I can't help but love it; or his solo on Nelson's "Blues And ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados A terrible shame. And to think that he died because the doctors at the hospital where he was taken thought that the diabetic coma that he was suffering was a reaction to substance abuse since he was, after all, a jazz musician; they then waited fo... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Exactly right; at 2:30. Excellent!:-) | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rahsaan WAS amazing! One of a kind. I think McCoy (and Rahsaan) were definitely channeling Trane in that performance. McCoy with chord voicings reminiscent of his work with Trane's Qt., and Rahsaan with......Well, let's have some fun. Now that you... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman3, thanks for the Sonny Rollins clip. I too love that record. It's really amazing how two icons of the tenor saxophone can both be so influential and yet so different. If I was forced to pick my favorite desert-island tenor player, Sonny woul... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Tubegroover, thanks for posting the Trane documentary. Fantastic stuff and should be required viewing. What an amazing force in music he was! | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Besame mucho" is one of the most beautiful Latin tunes, IMO; and I really like this version by Evora. The tune is not Brazilian at all (although Evora is from Cape Verde a Portuguese ex-colony); and, while the tune is often thought to be Cuban (s... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ****Coltrane's LEO: The CIA uses that tune at Gitmo.****Trane-boarding! :-) | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, Ella is actually out"playing" the horn players on that clip; she really was amazing, and I've never seen a case big enough for her. But, Trane; man, I'm not quite ready to come back to earth yet.https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PL7D089D2C50E9... | |
| Jazz for aficionados If you think gunplay because of a dispute over chord changes is an indication of passion, I would hate to see what some folks I know would do (to you) after hearing anything Coltrane played referred to as "just fine" :-)O-10, I have a pretty good ... |
