Michael Fitzgerald Posted June 20, 2005 Report Posted June 20, 2005 Is Hank taking any chances? Mike Quote
Kalo Posted June 20, 2005 Report Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) Listening to it now. I never knew that Hank Jones accompanied Marilyn Monroe during her "Happy Birthday" serenade to JFK! Edited June 20, 2005 by Kalo Quote
j lee Posted June 20, 2005 Report Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) I agree with Mike. Too many of those melodic, generalizing players out there playing on those long filaments. Nothing's more tiresome than listening to someone like Hank Jones play two bars of sixteenth notes that could make sense only according to functional harmony of the common practice period, and not to the advanced harmonies my struggling, effete, intelligent soul hears every night when the toaster roast potato eats. All those ear players were really not keeping it real. Edited June 20, 2005 by j lee Quote
