jazzbo Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) doesn't qualify? Oh I forgot his great work on "Oh Gallimond!" by the Abadi Bold Condensed Sextet. Edited May 21, 2009 by jazzbo Quote
Free For All Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 I do like Dori Caymmi, although he's not a "jazz master". Quote
7/4 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) I've heard of those guys, who's Sandeep Chowta? . Edited May 22, 2009 by 7/4 Quote
jazzbo Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Bollywood sountrack composer. I do like Dori Caymmi, although he's not a "jazz master". Me too. Like his dad, a really unique voice and phrasing. Plays wonderful flute too. Quote
7/4 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Ah well...Bollywood ain't my thing. I do like the classical musik though.... Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 I've never seen so many GRP refugees in one place! My thought as well. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 I've never seen so many GRP refugees in one place! My thought as well. Facts only known by folks spending time with GRP recordings. Quote
JSngry Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 Ah well...Bollywood ain't my thing. I do like the classical musik though.... Bollywood is amongst the wackiest stuff I've ever heard through these "Western" ears. The thought of somebody being able to even think music like that takes up when/if the musical interest wanes. Not too many musics have that effect on me, at least not to the extent that this stuff does. Quote
7/4 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 No doubt it's wacky, I used to hear some pretty crazy stuff in NYC Indian restaurants. I just never got into pursuing it. There's certainly a lot of it around here, there's plenty transplanted Indians living around this area. Quote

Rooster_Ties Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) I've never seen so many GRP refugees in one place! My thought as well. Facts only known by folks spending time with GRP recordings. I've never heard more than probably half a dozen GRP dates at most, and that was back during my college years circa 1990) when I didn't know that much about jazz -- and even then, I knew enough to mostly avoid GRP at all costs. That said, one doesn't thumb through thousands of CD's and rekkids over the last 20 years -- and not pick up on who's on what labels. Let the record show that I'm no recovering GRP fan, and take umbrage at any suggestions to the contrary. ( ) Edited May 22, 2009 by Rooster_Ties Quote
