Grandiose, part of a longer set of course but mainly just liked this part. The full album is on youtube too.

So nice. Thank you for the introduction to this artist.

Easy listening, slightly melodramatic. Superb.

 

[TheName]

I love Jazz too!

Vocal melody lines on par with solo instrumentals are rare and very very precious.

 

[Lemon Zing]

Do you like Roy Castle?

Nice cover of Take Five.

I still like Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstong, but my friends in a marimba band bought me a ticket to a modern jazz performance they were excited about and I had to leave at the intermission. If not for the beat, I would not have had any notion that the musicians were playing together. Very distressing. I've since purged my files of anything similar.

How about something that's so incredibly in sync it's eery then? (I don't actually expect you to like this lol)

I love bebop and had bop, in fact I grew up listening to Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillepie, Max Roach, etc.

Also I learned piano for some years, I used to play some jazz standards.

Sometimes when I listen to Charlie Parker , I feel like my head is going to explode. The stuff he was doing should not be possible. But he changed that

This was the first gold certified single.

It was also my grandmother's favourite song.

Holy cow. The drummer. The guitarist I was already familiar with so him being incredible is expected.

 

[abby normal]

likes big band, and west coast "cool" jazz of the 40s-60s, vince guaraldi in particular.

 

[Knower of nothing]

Had to come drop this find off here. May at least one other person experience it haha. Incredible bit of keyboard, drummer duo jam.

 

[Mr. Stevens]

I love Wayne Shorter, whether with Miles Davis, The Jazz Messengers, Weather Report, or on his own. Even though he's a big name, I don't see him discussed much.

i really love jack sperling's drumming in the 50s and 60s.
