I recently had published on the Tracking Angle audiophile site an article on Monk covering his entire discography with 3 songs embedded. simply google It's Monk's Time With The Unique Thelonious Monk. He is my favorite jazz musician.

Wrong. Deeply, deeply wrong to say there is no structure to Machine Gun. It, in fact, has much more structure than Ascension! A cursory listen should reveal heads, solo sections, group unisons and improvisation, etc -- should be fairly easy enough to discern. Highly recommend that you learn to listen a bit more closely.

I appreciate the fact that Brotzman did what he did. It's a tough listen, but just the fact that that music was performed in the first place is pretty freakin' awesome. Brotzman passed in June of '23.

What I hear in Kamasi's work isn't all that groundbreaking when one considers the work of Yusef Lateef, Alice Coltrane or Pharoah Sanders decades ago. Discuss... Carry on.
@mattrice3991 23 күн бұрын
Hey Wylie, we're big fans of Kamasi and Yusef. We're still really NEW to jazz so Kamasi is still "ground breaking" for our ears. Pharoah's episode will be coming up in just a few weeks and be sure to tune in to see how we rate him! You may be surprised.

I don't think the "free jazz" genre ever came to a close. There are any number of contemporary jazz artists out there today playing and recording free jazz. I hope it never comes to a close. I also do not use the term "free jazz" to define what I believe to be "avant-garde." Some would argue that point, but I don't know that playing a more free form of jazz necessarily advanced or moved jazz forward. Your site just popped into my algorithm and I subbed. I would have loved to have this sort of dialogue with my father. Carry on.

Since our journey has kind of "forced" us to listen to free jazz, and it's not my favorite, can you give me your list of contemporary free jazz albums to put in my ear? I'd like to see how the art form has progressed over the decades. I'm always looking to expand my listening. Have you ever been to a free jazz concert? Our episode on "Art Ensemble of Chicago" we learned that sometimes it better so SEE the show than actually just listen to it. It changed my mind a little bit about AEOC.

@mattrice3991 the music is really the gift that keeps on giving like nothing else. I've been playing trumpet for 28 years now and I could go on and on about my faves, but to keep it short, fats Navarro is the top 🎺 and 🐦 is my #1 alto and Wayne #1 tenor 🎷 for me followed by in no particular, Gillespie, Lee Morgan, Red Rodney, Kenny Dorham, Freddie, Brown, Miles, Maynard Bud Powell, Monk, Sonny Rollins , Trane, Paul Chambers, Ray Brown, Al Mckibbon, Ron Carter, Reggie Workman, Mingus, I can on and on, but I'll spare you guys 🤣 . I once told Ron Carter that if could solely survive off of some driving ass, resonant as hell bass lines, I'd be happy not to eat food again! Everyone has their thing when it comes to soloing and mine is bass. Sure the piano, drums and guitar are great, but for me, a great bassist can take the percussion spot manipulating the bass and taking advantage of the hollow nature of the instrument. Please forgive the ramble, lol. As I said, on and on. ✌️🎺

When I first listened to Coleman's 'The Shape of Jazz to Come' I didn't really like it, and I didn't get it, but something about it made me want to listen to it again. After I listened to it again, I wanted to listen to it again. I can't tell you how many times I've listened to it now, but it has become one of my favorite jazz albums.
@mattrice3991 26 күн бұрын
Jim, I get that totally. For me (and don't burn me at the stake for this) "Pulp Fiction" was like that for me. Saw it in the theater and didn't get it. After watching it over and over again it's one of my all time favs. I'll put "The Shape of Jazz to Come" in my ear this week and maybe gain an appreciation for it. Even if I have to listen to it a couple of times.

The biggest reason I don't care for Free Jazz is I'm not musically trained. Because I do not know music in terms of chords, modes, consonance, dissonance etc., I cannot appreciate the musicality of Free Jazz. For me it just sounds like cacophony where everyone is playing their own thing. It's kinda similar to a lot of Contemporary Art, Contemporary Classical music, Contemporary Literature etc. It's almost like the people doing it are doing it for the in group rather than for the general audience. As an amateur I can't be bothered with most of it. Which I think is okay, because I really feel they're not producing art for the masses but connoisseurs.
@mattrice3991 26 күн бұрын
I think it's an art form that you are either "all in" or "all out". Me personally, I can appreciate that it's an art form, and like you, I don't get it. Free jazz won't be at the top of my playlist.

Free Jazz is not for everyone and I wouldn't recommend it to people newly getting into jazz, as might take time to grow on you. When I first listened to Ornette Coleman, known as the father of free jazz, I was like you and thought I am being scammed. I recently went back to listening to him again and it surprised me how much I enjoyed it and now listen to it heavily, and I think Ornette is a genius. My recommendation is to go back to it and listen to it again at a later time and you might really enjoy it it.

hello, i have been looking for the name of a song that i believe was played/written by T Monk you can hear the song in the last scene of the movie Thick as Thieves featuring Alec Balwin (a movie about a thief that appreciates rare jazz collections) (although not many songs were played), would anyone here know this song, i remember this song grom somewhere.... thank you

I believe the song at the very end of the movie, while Alec Baldwin is hanging out with the dog, is Freeway by Joey Altruda (as Joey Altruda & His Cocktail Crew). I will listen to more of T. Monk to see if there is something that he wrote that sounds close/

So, he has an album called Straight No Chaser and there is a group called Straight No Chaser. Is there a correlation between the two. I also saw on the Embassy sign downtown that the group will be here in Fort Wayne.

I believe that the band playing in Ft. Wayne is the "Straight No Chaser (SNC) is a professional American a cappella group that originated in 1996 at Indiana University. Originally a student group at Indiana University, they recorded a video in 1998 of a comical version of "The 12 Days of Christmas". "

amazing I'm just getting into jazz I've had a few brief encounters with the jazz over the past decade or so. I started with Mahavishnu Orchestra and initially got into some jazz fusion stuff. I then bought 2 cd boxsets about 7 years ago "the perfect miles davis collection" containing 20 of his best albums. another was a massive herbie hancock boxset. then I've got some Neil Cowley Trio albums and lastly the comet is coming full discography. obviously, I want to explore some more jazz albums so finding your channel is going to help me go on a musical journey so thanks for being here.

Thanks so much for the comment. Matt and I have been exploring jazz now for a little over a year and have really enjoyed this journey. So much great music through the many decades. If you really enjoyed the Neil Cowley Trio I think you may already know of Esbjörn Svensson Trio (EST) we did an episode on "From Gagarin's Point of View" What an amazing trio that was too. Thanks again for dropping a comment. Glad we could help you along your jazz journey. DR
