![]() I love this record.Ĭlick to expand.Lon, this kind of thread interests me. I decided to put in an Ellington before the video portion of the system takes over from the audio portion. it's not surprising that jazz lovers would also fall into similar patterns and groups. but then some persons never really grow out of or away from the music they first got excited about, and others really only like music for dancing or social reasons. ![]() Is it all jazz? I think many of us make our own definitions over time and we get locked into a pattern of listening and buying and exploring that excludes what another might call jazz. There's a huge panorama of music played by these artists and artists in the timeline between them. Sydney Bechet, Steve Lacy and Najee all play the soprano saxophone and all are claimed by someone or other to be a jazz artist. Jazz has always been plagued with a fuzziness of definition that creates problems. my tastes do change and evolve, quite a bit of what I listen to now I didn't in the past. I confess that I haven't been moved to explore much more but I will at some point in the future. But I don't know about many more and if they were discussed I may be inclined to check them out. I haven't explored that many and to be honest I haven't been too knocked out by many that I've heard. I'm willing to hear about these new artists if you want to talk about them. please do.Ĭlick to expand.I am glad you posted. I'm indulging my passion for music and stereo and just in a good place these days. (I guess I fall into that category whether I want to or not).Īnd I had a nice half a day setting up and listening to a new headphone amp and a new pair of headphones I received today. Both sound quite good to be honest, if you have one no real reason to get the other, unless you're just a hopeless Coltrane collector. but they sound a bit different than the US set. I'm not sure if these are new masterings or not. I really didn't need to buy this set but I found I couldn't resist. I'm listening to the second disc in the new SHM-CD version of "The Heavyweight Champion" box set of John Coltrane Atlantic recordings. Thought if we spell it out in the beginning that this is an open conversation then those who are somehow offended or bothered can participate elsewhere, and those who don't mind a conversation can have one. I personally prefer this sort of a thread to any other type of thread. I'd like to have a thread where you an talk about jazz AND other music that may be on your mind while listening to jazz, what you're thinking about while listening, how your day or life is going, just a conversation with jazz music going, like one might have in person. someone complains, posts are deleted, fingers are wagged. If you talk audio, or about instruments, or about the bad day you had, or how happy you are to be listening and relaxing, or anything else. There's the Jazz Beat, but you really can't have a conversation there, you can only talk about jazz. I thought I'd start a new thread and see if there is any interest in continuing it amongst other jazz listeners here.
