Sunday Jazz with Django Reinhardt - After You've Gone:




PS: Beware - Django is strutting his stuff with greasy hair, cool mustache, and puffing on a F*G, which puts him near the top of list of degenerate toxic males!
PPS: I just purchased the above CD - The Best of Django Reinhardt. Great Stuff!

This Sunday - The wrong kind of Jazz* - Titled Kiss and Run:




*Note the title of the song and curb your emotional frenzy, if possible.

PS. I have this CD. I have to keep it locked away in a safe place to kept it from being confiscated by government officials/censors.

Nasty Jazz for this Sunday:

most of this playing is so 'out,' like 'outside' playing in jazz

what do you guys think of that concept? I love it. bleeds over to musicians in other genres that incorporate that understanding.



he just had surgery on his hands, supposedly 'cause he held a chord too long

Blue 7, excellent Jazz for a Tuesday, also contains the most supercilious drum solo of all time. Smoke a fat reefer and give a listen.

I find it hard to fathom that this came out 45 years ago and I used to have the vinyl album:



...and it was quite the hit at the time; and not just in the Jazz world....

quoting from a post in the music thread, the second vid probably more appropriate for this thread than the first.

.............................

Chet Baker was a natural musician............................he couldn't read music
I can't imagine a jazz musician showing up at a session and telling the other players that he can't read

he couldn't beat the needle - he died young - he either jumped or fell out of a hotel window in Amsterdam

a pretty good movie was made about his life called "Born to be Blue"

Yep. 1958-1963ish Miles and Coltrane in their various assemblages are my favorite.

Sunday Jazz is Mr. P.C, from John Coltrane and Co.

named after bassist Paul Chambers, who rips it up during that song.

Here's a cover by Rahsaan Roland Kirk from the mid-70's released on The Man Who Cried Fire

..................

more acoustic from Johnny Mac - with Indian themes and Indian musicians
he's an amazing guy - if you can get over being depressed listening to him or watching him if you happen to play guitar as I do. I can't even play like that in my dreams
