There's nothing as mysterious to a jazz man than jazz.

askin if you went there meaning did you listen to it all?
that is 45 minutes of curated sound not ear-friendly to many people
it can be an effort to listen to...the brain stays very active during the process

No. Just a few minutes. Did concentrate on that interplay, just before the horn came in. Definitely some different stuff

Giant Steps is a pretty audacious album title

Giant Steps is a pretty audacious album
and the title was prophetic because they were giant steps
he was all about the thirds in that song, and he also wrapped his sheets of sound around the brain of those who found solid ground in the hound scent
please don't delete what you might think that means before i spill the beans and say i didn't really meant it.
common sounds of connected vowels form chains of speech,
and several chains, arranged, then rearranged, either connect the brain to the ultimate plane,
or fail to be that diplomatic

My friend Andy (two years older) and I would sit playing chess and listening to Coltrane for hours on end on summer nights when we were in high school. I miss those days and my long time friend. RIP, Andy.

thank you for that post FJ

let us all take a brief moment to acknowledge and celebrate the life of Ramsey Lewis

this one sounds like an old Bluesbreaker's standard translated through Ramsey's piano
i keep anticipating the exact moment Mayall comes cutting in but it never seems to happen

also worth recognizing Eldee Young on double-bass, who passed 15 years ago, and Redd Holt on drums, who still lives among us.
those three guys have a very deep catalog over the decade they played together
