Amazon isn't only about buying and selling stuff--they have some in-depth discussions too. Here's one: http://www.amazon.com/forum/blues/ref=c ... NWZNBMPLFO << enough good stuff to keep you YouTubing for a couple of days. Like Hammond B-3 soul jazz, Blues with horns is a hybrid, an amalgam, and artists and producers have to be careful it doesn't get away from them, slipping into just R&B (not that that is a bad thing, just a different thing). Rave on! |

Bro S1 has given us a dead-solid music presentation. Thank you. Especially appreciated was the Orrin Keepnews piece--you could build a good mid-century jazz collection of the funky variety by picking up on the projects he did. We and the genre have a lot to bless him for. For those interested, Blue Mitchell held hero!n to a draw and got beaten by cancer at 49. What a loss. Horace Silver had a long career, and played and wrote some classics. My favorite (expressing his roots and his American homeland): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyESzCY ... B34BB8D6AA << post-Mitchell and very modernist for HS |

John Mayall made a righteous effort to assist both Blue Mitchell and Freddy Robinson (bka: Abu Talib): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPyZUszT_nI from 1972 with outstanding runs from the reeds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GP1eK77siX4 (Whilst Mayall's harmonica is "in the way" from my perspective, Blue Mitchell takes over a couple of minutes into the song) Mayall had both Robinson and Mitchell on, I believe, three albums. Both guys went back out on their own because Mayall, as is his way switched it up ("What did you come here for? To listen to an old record album?")....and two more players bite the dust. And I am not so sure or certain at all that Mitchell had greater problem with smack than the rest of us: In fact, I don't believe he had anything approaching a habit |
