Etta James

Okay, so what's wrong with Herb Alpert. Don't like his music? His playing? I love him. Grew up listening to him all my life; he's my dad's favorite. Not jazzy enough?

Sonny Clark

I bought Led Zeppelin CODA yesterday. Do you like that one? It had a lot of nice grooves, but I can see why many of them didn't make the cut..

Well it's good they're getting into some obscure ones. I wouldn't call them that, but I haven't heard of many mentioned..

20 % is such a low number... -_-

They seem to have a lot of boxed sets at J&R.

Sad news!1 I love his playing!

-_-

I guess it ain't fusion...

That's what I was thinking, but I just wanted to make sure.

You have been one of my influences greatly! I love your playing, and your album! Happy birthday!

How about some Jack D. What was his band... Compost...? Is that worth checking out?

idk, Have you heard the ones I mentioned? Again, they're not pop like his later (edit*)albums..

He died in a fire in his apartment in 1963. ← I believe the word is perished..

How much do you think a custom D'angelico from 1930 is worth? Just so happens, my dad inherited it from his uncle who recently passed away. I been playing it. It is one of the most beautiful sounding guitars I have ever played on.

Hmmm... Can you describe the music on this one??

Has this been done? This is just so fun, I have to try it. You know.... One person says a jazz artist, the next person says another jazz artist who's name starts with the last letter of the pervious one mentioned... Starting off with.... Miles Davis.

That tune is just too cool! I'd say My Funny Valentine, All The Things You Are, I Should Care... I used to like those, but they don't take me anywhere, no more..

Just Weather Report, which I didn't dig right away. Now Heavy Weather left me cold at first. I know a lot of you don't like Chuck Mangione, but some of his real early 1970's stuff is definately worth checking out. For instance, Alive.. 1972, Chuck Mangione Quartet with Gerry Niewood, Tony Levin, and Steve Gadd. Great playing. I got this when I was into Chuck.. Around age 8 or so.. But this album is terriffic. No Feels so Good... just good fusion... I guess. Some other great ones are with his quartet on A&M, right before he sold out. Bellevia is pretty good. The album, with Niewood again, and Chip Jackson on bass, and Joe Labarbrea on drums opens and ends with some great music.

Can someone tell me a Phineas album from circa 1973, with Elvin Jones on drums? I believe the first song was Harlem Blues....?

I think you're thinking of Stone Cold.. (if that's how you spell it..) There was one wrestler in the movie... Fat bold guy..

Okay, I saw them play a set from the 80's (?) on BET, and now Chick Corea is on mag rack rehearsing some really cool piece with the same bass player, John Patucci, (is that how you spell it?) On BET, he had Weckl on drums, who has a really wierd grip, the stick is so high up to his thumb in his left hand, but anyway, I think on the mag rack one, it's a different drummer. Maybe someone can clarify this one? Anyway, I dig the Elektric band. You?
