http://beginningwithmingus.blogspot.com/2012/11/regrets-milt.html
A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Thursday, November 22, 2012. I told you it would happen. I love 'Bag's Opus'. But lately I have been listening to 'Bags and Trane', which is an incredible album Milt recorded with John Coltrane and an all-star line-up in 1959. Perhaps I should have named it the #7 album that all humans should own. Shall we call it #7.5? Two of the greatest. Have a listen to the title track. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Monday, December 17, 2012. Lou Blackburn is a revelation. Friends, if you are going to donwload one album from iTunes this holiday season, may I suggest Lou Blackburn's "The Complete Imperial Sessions" which features the trombonist in partnership with trumpeter Preddie Hill. Never heard of either? That's a great groove isn't it? That's some hard bop at its finest. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Solmaz Sharif, Look.

A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Tuesday, January 22, 2013. Bobby Timmons Is A Name You Should Know. If you are even a semi-fan of jazz, surely you enjoy the music of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. They went through many encarnations over the years but one of the best groups ever was the one he put together in the late 50s to early 60s. Then Lee does his usual magic, then at 5:05 you've got Mr. Bobby Timmons himself. Incredible. Recorded in a trio setting? Subscribe to: Post Comme...

A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Monday, January 28, 2013. Eddie Costa, Another One Who Died Too Young. I've been on a real kick of exploring some of the lesser known lights of jazz, as my last few posts will attest. Have you heard of the incredible Eddie Costa? He was a West Coast player who was equally proficient on piano and vibes, he had a percussive attack on the keys that really is all his own. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Tuesday, March 12, 2013. Albums That All Humans Should Own #8. The trombone gets a bad rap these days. I mean, everyone loves the sax and trumpet, but friends, let's be honest, how many of you could claim to love listening to the trombone? How many of you could name three trombone players? I could list some of those albums as essential, but for today, I'm proud to announce that:. How many times have I mentioned that the band often makes the record?

A history of jazz * an appreciation of jazz * publishing. Friday, March 1, 2013. Another Bit of Shepp. Archie Shepp in and out of focus. Yesterday's post had me in an Archie Shepp frame of mind so I thought I'd share something a bit more adventurous than yesterday's groove. Have a listen to 'Lybia'. I say, and then turn this number up. And to avoid doing it tomorrow, here's 'Blase',. Another classic energized track.). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
