Milestones Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 What is an expert in this situation? Maybe I'm one; I've created thousands of personal playlists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjazzman Posted January 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 You are in fact an expert. For instance, if I wanted a playlist of Booker Ervin's best 20 songs where would I find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milestones Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Well, these are the first two playlists I made of Ervin's music. Perhaps my playlists are unusual in that the majority of the tracks come from albums led by others, notably Mingus, Weston, Haynes, and Waldron. ONE: 1. Lunar Tune 2. A Day to Mourn 3. Status Seeking—Mal Waldron 4. Scoochie—Roy Haynes 5. Portrait of Vivian—Randy Weston 6. Thirteen—Mal Waldron 7. Under Paris Skies—Roy Haynes 8. Devil Woman—Charles Mingus 9. Al’s In TWO: 1. Cryin’ Blues—Mingus 2. Prayer for Passive Resistance—Mingus 3. Sketch of Melba—Haynes 4. Berkshire Blues—Weston 5. Cry Me Not 6. Mr. Wiggles 7. African Cookbook—Weston 8. Warp and Woof—Waldron 9. I Can’t Get Started 10. The Lamps is Low Edited January 2, 2020 by Milestones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danasgoodstuff Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 I love making lists, not sure how expert I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milestones Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Expertise is partly knowledge. If you have listened to and appreciated particular artists, then you are some degree of expert. I also make a lot of thematic playlists: jazz and blues, jazz/world music, duos (strictly two instruments), Miles Davis sidemen, jazz artists playing Gershwin, cool jazz, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
