HangukMiguk 8 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Anybody else listen to classical music on here?Occasionally. I was a music major. I don't make a habit of it though. Link to post Share on other sites
Don Giovanni 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Clifford and Miles are both over rated. Â Best jazz trumpeter to ever walk the earth was Mr. John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie.i respect him and his influence, but i cant get into his music as much as the others.So I guess you are more of a Hard Bop or maybe Cool / West Coast Jazz type of guy.Check out this guy named Terrel Stafford. I played with him a few years ago and the guy is absolutely burning. He lives out in the east coast, and has a few recordings out.Who else do you like?alright ill check him out. some others i like are Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Bill Evans, Monk, and Dave Brubeck. i have a Mingus record but i dont listen to him as much as the others. always trying to expand my collection though. what instrument do you play?

Check out Cannonball Adderley....he was also on the Kind of Blue session.Oh...and I play trombone...hence the name. I'm more of a classical guy than a jazz guy....but living in a jazz/commercial music town....I have no other choice. Link to post Share on other sites
Shimmering Wang 1 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 The Hold Steady- Almost Killed Me(always great, because while I'm a typical "indie fan" I always laugh at "indie kids" who wear yellow leather armbands, even though I'm pretty much one of them)The Hold Steady- Separation Sunday(I'm feeling opinionated today)Guided By Voices- Bee Thousand and/or Alien Lanes Link to post Share on other sites

mbreon 0 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Album of the Day: Chicago - Transit Authority This is a great album and I don't care if you hate it or not. This is not the same Chicago led by Peter Cetera that brought you sappy crap like "You're the Inspiration" . When the band first came out, they were very innovative with some excellent musicians (and Peter Cetera was in the band , but he wasn't a complete pansy yet). Terry Kath is a great guitar player (if you have ever heard "25 Or 6 To 4", that's him). Listen to the song "Free Form Guitar" and you can hear Kath, who can't even read music, wail on guitar. Robert Lamm was also a good lead singer and of course Chicago rocks the horns. If you have never given this album a chance due to Chicago's sins of the `80s, then you are missing out.

Probably my favorite song by Joy Division, though it was good to see their mini-revival with the release of Donnie Darko. Link to post Share on other sites
