  1. Does anyone recall the Miles and Monk tune where it appears that Monk forgets where he's at in the tune and Miles has to start playing the head to lead him back in?
  2. Diligent and lazy at the same time. But mainly a musician. Played in a punk rock band.
  3. I have 6 Art Farmer records. This the best of the 6. The arragments by Benny Golson and Gigi Gyrce are wonderful.
  4. Welcome Jeanfl, you may want to read this thread on arch top guitars. Guitars
  5. Have a great b-day.
  6. I studied classical music in school. Plus my wife likes classical music. She tries to get me to play just this at home. But I need my jazz as well.
  7. Today at work someone called in a bomb threat. Everyone left the building for about 2 hours. Then we were told we could come back to work. The police brought dogs, but these does looked a bit too old to be sniffing out bombs. Some co-workers just left and went home. Well since I am typing this, I guess the building is safe. If you wanted to blow up the building, why phone it in?
  8. I dare you ... After a few drinks I'll have enough nerve.
  9. Well if you need to know, I will be at his show on Tursday. I will ask him. He grew up in the Harlem NY. Which at the time was and still is very much of African American decent.
  10. I agree with you 100% on this. The younger crowd would go see it because it has Snoop's name on it.
  11. A whopping 263 posts.
  12. Do you recall how your brother selected the organ as his instrument of choice? Did he also play piano?
  13. Yes, I'll be Istanbul during there festival. Probale see John Scofield.
  14. I agree 100%. So much of the time, though, the electric bass, to me, is not played well. As a result, I tend to prefer the acoustic bass. Thta's the key for me, it has to be played well. I wonder in players like Ron Carter, Ray Brown and others of their acclaim, ever recorded with the electric bass?
  15. When I think of jazz, I can always pitcher the walking bass sound from those giant upright instruments. Do you think the electric bass has the same feel to it as its counterpart?
  16. Thanks. I will order from them. Some good stuff on there site.
  17. Gary, do you know of any organ players that your brother was inspired by or like to listen to?
  18. What number is your set?
  19. One of my all time favorite albums of Charles Kynard is one call "Soul Brotherhood" with Grant Green I so excited when it got released on CD. I had played the LP to death.
  20. I know Blue Note launched one in Europe. Not sure of the wen address. It may be bluenoteeurope.com. I think someone once mentioned it here.
  21. Stories like these make me sick to my stomach. Whomever is at falult, be it the mother or father or bother, they should be held accountable. Poor little girl, she must be very scared.
  22. Has anyone ever done this? It never dawned on me till I read Dan's thread. The thought of losing all my CD's and records, and then having to start collecting from the beginning would leave me depressed for 50 years. All the money I've spent over the years. At least with insurance, I can get back a good deal of the stuff.
  23. That's a good point. Who ever thinks of insuring his/her music collection, usually the just the equipment we play them on?
