JAZZ in Antwerp and Ghent! 🎹 Monk At His Best! The Palo Alto Recording 🎷Acclaimed saxophonist and hard-bop innovator Jackie McLean was a vital contributor to the direction of jazz music into post-bop by introducing elements of the avant-garde through the 1950s and ’60s. Loving everything @alfamist is doing! Also had the pleasure of seeing him and band live in Prague last Sunday. What a memorable experience! #technics #turntable #turntables #vinyl #audio #audiophile #record #audio Alfa Mist’s “Bring Backs” Blends Jazz with Spoken Word 🍾 celebrating the publication of my my 50th article on www.bertoltpress.com 🎷Starting a jazz collection is easy, but how can you bring diversity to the mix? 🎶 ☕️ Song selection and coffee with @boogie.hops ☕️🎶 Let’s start the day in a good mood and with great music and food! 📌 Introduction To 45 rpm Record Collecting 📌 I have written 3 articles about record sleeve designs. Check them out at www.bertoltpress.com My music blog turned 2 years this month! 📌New Article - Chris Dave, the recognized drummer who supported amongst other Adele and Justin Bieber, released his self-titled debut album with a large group of experienced musicians called the Drumhedz in 2018. With it, he exhibits things he couldn’t before. The album is a contemporary oeuvre. One in which elements of funk, soul, gospel, R&B, and hip-hop are fused with jazz. 🎬Music Documentaries You Must See to Believe 🎷Spotlight on Coltrane: 5 Diverse Albums What attracts me to an album apart from the music, is the sleeve design. The artwork can be stunning and at the same time, it contributes to the story of the recording. There is nothing more appealing to me than a jazz album infused with poetry and spoken word. And this is exactly what @artistryofjazzhorn offers us. Dear Love is the third and most ambitious album by the American vocalist and arranger. Not only is it another demonstration of Jazzmeia “Jazz” Horn’s singing ability, but the album also spotlights her as a composer, arranger, and bandleader. Just Coolin’ is the result of a unique but short-lived ensemble of The Jazz Messengers collective.
