On all streaming platforms there is someone called Nathan Jaz. The music is a piano trio combo, and each tune sounds so much like every other tracks. Is this a real person or an AI programming creating music? Does anyone know?

Same here, the one time I saw him was with Jimmy Heath. I liked his playing that night. I bought his Steeple Chase CD that was being sold at the gig.
RIP. -

Anyone interested in hearing Zappa with Roland Kirk? It's on my Facebook group and my cloud drive.

I went to a Kool Jazz Festival in Cleveland in 1984--actually my first show ever. Here is who I saw: Miles Davis, Gerry Mulligan, Bob Brookmeyer, Art Blakey, Dizzy, the Marsalis Brothers, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Tony Williams. That Festival really rounded up some legends--and all for one rather low price.
You’d think they would have at least one big name musician, but that was a 10 course meal.

Sad news. RIP, Peter.

How many tunes can you think of that use the changes to Rhythm Changes?
Here are four I can think of off the top of my head.
Sonny Rollins', Oleo,
Denzel Best's, Move
Charlie Parker's Anthropology
Duke Ellington's Cotton Tail.

Sonny is recorded on cassette, watching an episode of a TV show? That sounds absurd but on the other hand, since the tape was apparently given him, it seems easy to conclude that he didn't care for the performance and therefore the cassette could be used again .... for audio of him watching TV. My head hurts.
Yeah. I feel the same.

I don’t know the show. The tv is on and you hear Sonny speak a few words. He must have been watching tv and decided to tape the audio? But Sonny was always a critic about his playing and just erased it.
-
Yes. I went to listen to it. What is on the tape now is Sonny watching an episode of a television Western show.
-
I hope that this one will get released at some point. It’s a part of the Sonny Rollins collection That he donated to a Schomburg Center for Research in Black culture.

There must be at least a dozen different tenor players that have done a cover of this pop standard. This song fits the tenor saxophone so well. The latest version I've come across is a Jimmy Heath performance of the tune from back in 1965. I have it on my Facebook group. He tears it.

There are also the jazz pianists who had a disability that did not allow them the use of ten fingers.
The two that immediately come to mind are Horace Parlan and Carl Perkins.
The flip side of small hands, Roland Hanna once said during a concert I was at, that Eubie Blake had the biggest hands he ever saw. He could easily reach a 5th above an octave with his pinky still curved, meaning he could have played the next note.

This was released earlier this year. I just recently discovered it. It is mostly alternate takes from the original release from 1985. It's very enjoyable.
