Real Jazz. It is America's gift to the ...Jazz. Real Jazz. It is America's gift to the world. Due to the influence of my mother and father, I grew up listening to Jazz, Blues and Country. The Blues are like Bluegrass for me in that I can listen to maybe an hour or so and I am sated. But Jazz? <br /><br />I can listen for a lifetime. I don't much care for "smooooth jahzz", in fact I kinda loath it. I've never been a fan of Gorelick (Kenny G.) as I liken listening to that sort of junque with eating Kellogg's Sugar Frosted Flakes with maple syrup poured over them instead of milk.<br /><br />What passes for Country Music these days if more what my younger brother calls "Hick Hop". No thanks. Give me Patsy Cline and Hank Williams Sr. thank you. So yeah, I am all for catching a new 'trane. The album with both Coltrane and Hartman is among my all time favorites so again, I am eager for more music done by Mr. Coltrane. <br /><br />When I listen I don't have to sit still, in the "sweet spot" or even "in the moment". I just have to hear the music. Everyone has a soundtrack to their life. Mine is made up of talented folks like Coltrane, Sinatra, Fitzgerald and more. Music is a part of not only who we are but also who we were and will be. Think of it this way.<br /><br />Love is friendship set to music.<br /><br />Thanks for the 'trane, sir.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
