Jazz 101.

[Connemara]

This is the msot remarkable clip I've ever seen. John Coltrane and Stan Getz on sax. Oscar Peterson accompanies on piano. The stars sure as hell aligned on this night. Pure bliss.

I have this live recording of Oscar doing "Travelin' On." Wish I could post. Really swingin'.

Yeah all that negro jazz down at the speakeasy really gets your hips a-shakin', throws all the squares for a curve!

If you're making fun of blacks in jazz than please hgo die.

Your sense of irony is as acute as your sense of age-appropriate entertainment.

But apparently your pretensions to being born in 1924 have done nothing to take the edge off your late-90s knee-jerk politically correct sensitivity.

Are you mocking my jazz affinities?

Even if so, sorry, p;ease go away. I know more about hard bop and bop than you will ever.

I got it. I guess subtlety comes with age, not with appreciation of age. Edit: Nice music though

Dude, tool.

Throwing up a clip of early Trane and Getz and saying that is like saying you know more about rock by posting a video of the Beatles...but, whatever.

Not sure what everyone else blithering on about but the video is great.

 

[gdc_2008]

The video is fine, its the ignorant comments from the poster that I was blithering about.

 

[Connemara]

I was drunk, sry.

"Every few a months, a white person will put on some Jazz and pour themselves a glass of wine or scotch and tell themselves how nice it is. Then they will get bored and ... write emails to other white people about how nice it was to listen to Jazz at home."
