The jazz lover's thread |
Subject: The jazz lover's thread by Notorious on 2008/11/22 20:14:46 I enjoy participating in Tommy's music threads so much that I thought I'd start one of my own. I love so many different kinds of music and jazz is among the types I love the most. I hope I'm not alone here.... San Lorenzo - Pat Metheny Group Is there an emotion that this song doesn't touch? Mood Indigo - Duke Ellington My favorite jazz composer. Thelonious Monk - Straight, No Chaser Stan Kenton - Intermission Riff Maynard Ferguson - Pagliacci Jean-Luc Ponty - Egocentric Molecules Bela Fleck & the Flecktones - Sinister Minister Weather Report - Birdland You can't listen to this and be depressed. Benny Goodman - Sing Sing Sing I love the clarinet. Woody Herman - Blues in the Night Another clarinet master. Two jazz mega stars collaborating on a song by one of my favorite composers, George Gershwin. Ella Fitzgerald & Louie Armstrong perform Summertime from Porgy & Bess. Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit A song as tragic as her own life, about some horrendous but all too true events that took place in her time. My favorite jazz vocalist, without a doubt. One more by this magnificent lady - Lady Sings the Blues Lionel Hampton - Stardust |
