On a mission to like jazz
On last thing, this is not what I meant. I never said that one was playing better than the other, they are very different cats. Although between the two, I prefer Branford Marsalis' music. Marsalis has left such a mark on Sting's music that it's difficult to come after him, and indeed, Botti... -

Yep, you forgot, condescending and patronising. -
On a mission to like jazz
It's quite obvious that you're talking about yourself here. I agree, every opinion is questionable and opened to discussion. However, that Dizzy Gillespie was 9 years older than Miles Davis, that he was already well established and a respected musician by the time Miles Davis started his own... -
On a mission to like jazz
It's good, means he's still a controversial figure, after all these years. Pete Cosey's solo, joined by Lieman afterwards is quite something. That's such a great performance. Watch at 20:46 how Miles Davis makes the band stop and go while Cosey is playing. You have to face your band to do that... -

So, Miles Davis 1973: between around 12:44 and 12:46 Dave Liebman and Miles Davis play together repeatedly hitting a E flat above high C and then Miles hits an A flat above high C. On a Bb trumpet it's B flat actually, a tone away from double high C. So I take that back, it is actually... -

On a mission to like jazz
Hi all, I haven't been posting for a long time, but still kept an eye on the thread and the videos/music posted. It's really nice to see this thread still going and expanding. I'm listening a lot to Pyeng Threadgill last album at the moment and love it. So I thought I would share that even... -
On a mission to like jazz
Well you made your opinion quite clear, and I understand that you don't like what Miles Davis did from Bitches Brew onwards, and possibly even In A Silent Way, however dismissing his playing as early as 1948 is quite harsh. You also seem to have a confused knowledge of the history of jazz. At... -

A bit of Didier Lockwood who died on the 18th of February, unexpectedly at the age of 62. -
On a mission to like jazz
I'm catching up with the music of Pyeng Threadgill today. She's done three excellent albums that I haven't listened to for a while. Upon hearing that anew one is coming, if her indiegogo campaign is successful, I felt like listening to all of them again. Put a smile on my face. First one is... -
