[Music] Is there a time for Jazz ?

[the right footed denilson]

Kids are seriously digging jazz these days.

 

[Gwylan]

If you don't know it, try Mats Gustafsson's stuff, The Thing, Fire! and Fire! Orchestra especially.

Listening to some now; thanks for the tip, a new name to me.

I see he's been playing with James Blood Ulmer, I bet that's some gig

I rather like sitting on my balcony in Summer with a bottle of something cold and Sidney Buchet drifting from the speakers.

Yep - love Stan Getz too

Reading that reminded me of the first time I heard this absolutely stunning track

Always time for jazz, so easy to jam along to.

 

[Sussexscots]

Is there a time for Jazz? It's absolutely a yes from me.

Love is like jazz
You make it up as you go along
And you act as if you really knew the song
But you don't and you never will
So you flaunt your mistakes and you make them until
They
Were you

Love is like jazz
The same song a million times
The same song a million times
In different ways
In different ways
"Strange Fruit" with and without wind chimes

It's divine
It's asinine
It's depressing
And it's almost entirely window dressing
But it'll do

As a jazz lover, i also liked these couple of quotes

Jazz ain't nuthin' but a blues quartet falling down stairs

and a great man once said

I'd come into contact with Charlie Parker records and things like that, but they didn't hold my interest. I couldn't follow it. Same kind of argument that you'd get from people today, just "Huh, what are they doing? They just noodling around", you know. I mean, now I understand why they're noodling and where they're noodling, and I can tell the difference between good noodling and bad noodling, but without certain musical clues it just all sounded like noodles to me.

Bloody love a bit of jazz.

Just beautiful.

I am so looking forward to seeing Kamasi on Brighton Beach, where he is headlining the final day of the Soundcrash Funkand Soul Weekender on 17th to 19th May. Quite some line up all weekend.

I saw Gustafsson and Brotzmann play together in a Brotzmann tentet. Ear-splitting.

 

[Is it PotG?]

A wonderful compilation by the all knowing Eddie Piller, for those liking the lighter, cooler mod jazz.

 

[Boys 9d]

As a long time Jazz lover, I am impressed by the new wave of British musicians.

My one and only prolongued exposure to jazz was in a bar in Chicago called Andy's Jazz Club, where I spent a very pleasant evening sat at the bar with the missus, consuming pretzels, cocktails and lite beer. To my uneducated ear the band sounded very decent, although with jazz, I can never quite get away from the feeling that they're just making it up as they go along.

Anyway the place was rammed, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the ovations of wooping and clapping at the end of every track was somehow genuinely endearing (I'm not normally a fan of wooping). It was on of the best nights of our trip. Any jazz fans who find themselves in the Windy City should definitely check it out.

Chicago is widely regarded to have been the most happening jazz city for a while, although London (see post above yours) is beginning to steal attention.

Jazz or contemporary music ?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86BmSaXZMHw

I'm starting to really enjoy jazz, but to a couple of venues in London, which have been good nights.

My Dad basically gave me all his vinyl collection when he and Mum moved last year, and that includes loads of jazz.

Trying to find out if there are any good places in Brighton to go and see jazz?

The Verdict in Edward Street opposite the Law Courts. Also a number of pubs have regular sessions often with free entry.

Posted before,yet why not more of this ? Springsteen fan me,yet class. Let,s get these decent tracks back online.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

To anti Jazz fans i get it,but stick a band on any market town square on a busy day and this will fly. Up Tempo.

I have never been a lover of traditional Jazz, but I have for many years liked modern Jazz in all its different forms.
What I I like about Jazz is that you can mix it with other genres of music, like Funk or even rap.
Or as in this case both........Nice.
