Jazz Only!!!

Worked for a couple of hours this afternoon on my old BMW motorcycle during lock-down and was in the mood for a bit of Diana Krall.

Since it is a shooting site, also fitted a Yo Dave kit to my CZ 455.
 

One of my old favorites. I'm 38 and I've been listening to this album for 25 years. This song in particular got me through good and bad days
 
Nice to see I am not the only one who likes good music! Jazz is so much more substantial than most other types of music. It requires technical skill on the instrument, a solid understanding of harmonic structure, a very solid sense of time, and a full understanding of the "rules" for playing jazz. And all that just makes you average.......

Here is one of the superstars that we sadly lost way too soon. No drugs or abuse, a car accident got him.

 
Jazz has always been hard to define. From straight-ahead big band jazz to combos, bebop, cool jazz, latin jazz, smooth jazz, and fusion; there are lots of styles. However, we all seem to know what jazz is when we hear it.......
 
Here is another favorite. I have played this arrangement many times. The lead trumpet part is VERY cool. In fact, there is not music cooler than jazz. Everything else just starts getting squarer and squarer....... ;)

That is a great one right there.
