Jazz My Two Cents Worth: The Beginnings
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2009/10/beginnings.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Thursday, October 15, 2009. If you want to get rich, nowadays, there must be some way- it seems that the two tried and true methods are down to one, since real estate just went bust. The other way is to invent something that society desperately needs. Producing Jazz is way down on that list. It is so far down on that list that it actually reaches into a new list- Things You Do for Love. It may also graze the list of Things That Are Nearly Impossible to Do. Producing Your Own Music.

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: Recording What?
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2009/10/recording-what.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Friday, October 30, 2009. We have to set up a studio and immediately all sorts of technological questions are raised, such as how much technology do we want, and that depends on what we think we're trying to record. What was Rudy recording? That's the next question. There's something missing in so many contemporary releases. Again, using the same logic as above, we can rule out that Rudy was recording the sounds of the instruments. Why? I'm old enough to believe yes. Do they ...

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: A Little Bit of Business
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2009/10/little-bit-of-business.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Thursday, October 15, 2009. A Little Bit of Business. I'm going to change the focus of this blog just a little bit, and before I do that I've got to post this little exchange between myself and Scott Yanow. Basically, it regards a comment he made on my last post, and I'll reproduce that comment here:. Yves has since told me that he likes my writing and my understanding of early jazz. That is good enough for me. Which brings me to my little change in focus. View my complete profile.

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: July 2008
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Sunday, July 13, 2008. Science Near and Dear to the Musician. Outside of my last, rather silly post, done in about 2 minutes—I’m not making excuses. Well, actually I am, here’s something more serious, elaborating on the theme of playing music from the heart. Here are two recent scientific findings that I think are relevant to jazz musicians, findings about marijuana and about keeping time:. 1 Your skin produces a natural form of marijuana. This is from Live Science, July 11, 2008.

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: April 2009
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Sunday, April 5, 2009. The Existential Bix: A Good and Proper Review of Yves Francois. Here’s an existential question for an artist—would you prefer a really good review from someone who totally doesn’t get what you’re doing, or a bad review from someone who gets what you’re doing, but points out that you didn’t do a good job of getting it done? Turns out that’s exactly what happens in the next sentence. The musicians make mistakes. Well we can’t all be Kenny G now, can we? And h...

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: Really Connecting with the Audience
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2010/02/really-connecting-with-audience.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. Really Connecting with the Audience. ScienceDaily (Jan. 16, 2010). 8212; Have you ever accidentally pulled your headphone socket out while listening to music? What happens when the music stops? Psychologists believe that our brains continuously predict what is going to happen next in a piece of music. So, when the music stops, your brain may still have expectations about what should happen next. These findings may help scientists to understand why we...

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: April 2008
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Monday, April 21, 2008. An Interview with Paul Bollenback. I'll let this video speak for itself, which contains more superlatives than I could write. He is playing It Could Happen to You, which I have been practicing ever since seeing this 2 months ago. Now the interview. We did this through Gmail instant messaging, which is lovely because there is an immediate transcription of the conversation. WowI wish I was that smart to know that! Yeah, I was going to say you've dispelled an...

Jazz My Two Cents Worth: March 2008
http://naftali2-jazzmytwocentsworth.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Jazz My Two Cents Worth. Tuesday, March 25, 2008. Brief Note: In between this post and my previous post, Carol Sloane celebrated a birthday. Happy Birthday, and thank you for the exquisite music you've given the world. They practiced what they were going to play over certain passages, and the spontaneity was then gone. It does have that sound of a death spiral—. The same kind of laughter we would hear in the background coming from Wes Montgomery, or the monotone hum that Oscar Peterson knew and proved to...
