What music are you listening to?

[intet_at_tabe]

For Mat and all jazz oboe/cello/piano/soprano saxophone players.

Eberhard Weber (german) using strange self-built electric upstanding basses with 4, 5 or 6 strings, often using the bow as well on his album "Later That Evening" feat. Paul McCandless also with OREGON (soprano saxophone, oboe, english horn, clarinet), Bill Frisell (guitars), Lyle Mays also from the Pat Metheny Group (piano) and Michael DiPasqua (drums, percussion) ECM Records 1982.

Eberhard Weber the favoured el. bass player to Jan Garbarek (Norway) for twenty odd years. They say about Eberhard Weber, he composes music in colours.

If you check in with Gary Burton (vibraphone, marimba) you´ll know he adopted severel of Eberhard Weber´s compositions, like "Yellow Fields" and "The Colours of Chloe".

Enjoy it!!

Best regards for a great day for all of you, sunny here from my window,

What am I listening to while I surf the pages????????? - Bach, Bach and more Bach, and in the next couple of weeks, once we enter Lent which is quite early this year I will be digging out the St Matthew Passion. Always one of my favourite times of year Lent is.


Some of the most beautiful music ever composed is associated with this period of the year.

*My Foolish Heart* - Live at Montreux - Jarrett, Peacock, Dejohnette playing "Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry" - This is Jazz at its most sublime...

Did you already buy/borrow the album "My Foolish Heart" with the trio. Please send me a copy and you´ll enter my will straight away, or as Monk would say "Straight no chaser".

Or perhaps you scrolled the songs on the website of ECM. Anyways like they used to sing in an old James Bond movie: Nobody does it better!! Nice post Corno Dolce.

Corno Dolce, just a footnote for you on Dmitri Shostakowich "Dmitri Shostakovich" 1991 interpretated by KJ - the album I have is called "24 Preludes and Fugues op. 87". A piece of advice though, turn down the sound and take the afternoon off when listening, it´s far from "My Foolish Heart".

One of my birthday presents, the CD "As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls", by Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays. It´s an old ECM album from 1981: Pat Metheny (acoustic and electric 6 and 12 string guitars, el. bass) Lyle Mays (piano, syntheziser, organ, autoharp) and the brazilian percussionist Nana Vasconcelos (berimbau, percussion, drums, vocals).

There´s a song on the album called "It´s For You", incredible beautiful. PM knows how to swing on the guitar. Check it out.

Dixieland Jazz ... man, that stuff really swings ... Picking music for a Mardi Gras celebration at church coming up soon.

Hi Intet,

I'm quite familiar with the Shostakovich preludes and fugues - nothing at all like *My Foolish Heart* but they have their own redeeming qualities. :grin::grin::grin:

*San Lorenzo* from PM's "Travels" CD is my fav.

I purchased KJ's *Live at Montreux* a week ago. Interesting to note that KJ withheld the release of this album for so long - waiting for the rigth moment as they say. Hey, in the latest issue of JazzTimes with KJ's picture on it, there is a lengthy article about the trio@25 - excellent article.

Cheers,

Corno Dolce

Hi Corno Dolce.

I do increasingly believe your telepathic skills are for real "San Lorenzo", loved by thousands of Pat Metheny fans, first released on Pat Metheny Group, also called The White Album.

All good things come to the one who waits, different music at different times, right!!

In 2002 or 03 Keith Jarrett was awarded by the swedish POLAR Commite of Music. Sort of musics Nobel Prize (in Sweden). The swedish king was there, and every other dignitar TV included. KJ´s first agent George Avakian, who spoke in front of the audience about KJ and the first tour he did to Scandinavia. Though he had been here with The Charles Lloyd Quartet in the late 1960´s. Mr. Avakian told at the end of the tour to Scandinavia, he was proud to pay each musician close to 125 dollars - that was all. But people already then had seen a very special musician and solo-pianist.

Members of the trio were Cecil McBee (bass) and Jack DeJohnette (drums). It became the breakthough for Mr. Jarrett, first in Scandinavia and then Europe. At the same time back in the early 1970´s Manfred Eicher had plans to bring Jarrett together with Jan Garbarek/Palle Danielsson/Jon Christensen at the yearly Molde Jazz Festival close to Bergen in Norway. He succeeded. Do you have the album "Personal Mountains" with the Scandinavian Quartet, first recorded in 1979, but released 10 years later, as Mr. Jarrett said: 1979 was not the right time.

The next year Jarrett was rewarded in Denmark (always a bit more rusty when it comes to action). I didn´t know, and it would not have mattered anyway.

Like I´ve said before, you lucky soul, I will return to the new album, when I get it. I believe the Standards Trio reach 25 years of standards next year.

At your convinience Sir.

Be safe,

Hi Intet,

I don't have *Personal Mountains* - sorry. My telepathic skills? I wouldn't bet a wooden nickle on them. :grin::grin::grin:

Thanx for sharing about KJ's early career - very fascinating :up::tiphat:

Cheers,

Corno Dolce

Jimi Hendrix, thanks to you Muza.

From the double album "Electric Ladyland" MCA Records 1968 feat Hendrix (el. guitar, vocals), Noel Redding (el. bass, vocals) and Mitch Mitchell (drums).

The Bob Dylan composed song in Hendrix version "All along the watchtower". Should none of you know, what a wah-wah pedal is used for in connection with the guitar? You´ll get it from this album and the intire Jimi Hendrix production of records.

Best regards,

American IV: The Man Comes Around
by Johnny Cash

This album has a bunch of cowboy sad songs, telling stories of reflection and death.
I'm listening exclusively to it for days, just can't stop.
