Getz and Gilberto's The Girl From Ipanema is the first song catched my attention to Jazz! The first time I heard this song is back to 20+ years ago from radio.

Sktung hing,

You are lucky to have the LPs of We get request. Mine is a CD version.
Had listened to the LP version of Dave Burbeck in my friend's place, I asked myself is that the same albumn I have but in CD version ???
It's just different , the atmosphere, density and bass.....I wish I had a turnable to play those 50S, 60s jazz.....

happy listening !!!

I like jazz vocalists, female or male. Any suggestions?

Dear Jazz Chan Hing and Jazz music lover,

Good morning!
We have heavy thunderstorm outside!

I am not a Jazz expert. My small music collection has a narrow range of Jazz music because it is what I can touch to with my limited time and information. Due to my limited exposure to the jazz world, I naturally keep both CD and LP version for the Jazz music I like instead of to try more new album aggressively.

I hope we can meet more Jazz lover in this thread to share our beloved Jazz music and enhance our understanding and interest about Jazz!

Here is one popular Jazz album I got! Miles David’s Kind of Blue. I am listening track no. 1 “SO WHAT” I extracted some nice words from Rich Harknes of Stereo Times back to the year 2000’ as below:

“My sweaty little fingers drop Miles' "So What" from into the CD player and I tiptoe back to my seat up to my first encounter with them…

Whoa! Paul Chambers’ bass appears directly at the center,

Bill Evan's piano floats in the vicinity of the left , but behind and beyond it in its own little alcove of reverb.

Jimmy Cobb's ride cymbal inches into the mix. He's playing at whisper level

Next, sax men Adderley and Coltrane enter. Each sax is richly differentiated, their sound being both present and vivid yet totally relaxed.

When Miles finally enters with the amazing sound of his horn. It’s holographic at front and center, yet full, warm and shimmering with brassy harmonics!”

Let’s JAZZ!

Nice suggestions!!!

Carol Kidd is one of my favorite jazz violists. I believed that I own most of her albums. The song “The Glory of Love” may be overlooked, I rated this song equally beautiful with “When I dream".I am massaging by The Glory of Love... Bravo!
