#OnGreenDolphinStreet #MilesDavis #Jazz
Lyrics:
Lover, one lovely day
Love came planning to stay
Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting
The setting for nights beyond forgetting
Through these moments apart
Love come here in my heart
When I recall the love I found on
I could kiss the ground on Green Dolphin Street
Lover, one lovely day
A love came planning to stay
Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting
The setting for nights beyond forgetting
And through these moments apart
Love come here in my heart
When I recall the love I found on
Im gonna kiss the ground I found on Green Dolphin Street

That Bill Evans piano intro is a thing of beauty, one of best openings to a jazz recording ever. Really, everyone here contributes equally to making this a sublime listening experience.

[@jamaljabbar5014]

I love Bill Evans, like any and everyone else. Beautiful, if not doleful player. Miles knew he had a unique player, a classy player. If I can say this with constructive criticism, although he is a great player, I found that he could never really SWING!, you know, like, say a Hancock, or a Garland, or a Kelly. His 'Affinity' album is wonderful, Sno Peas, Tomato Kiss, Wine & Roses. His style is a more laid back style, though pensive.

[@179cpv]

Although there are isolated examples to the contrary that you could point to, I tend to agree that swinging hard was not Evans' strong suit generally. I think Miles realized this as well. It's not an accident he chose Wynton Kelley, not Evans, to play the piano solo on "Freddie Freeloader," which has a funkier blues groove to it compared to the other tracks on Kind of Blue that are more reflective in nature and perfectly suited to Evans' style.

[@jamaljabbar5014]

Agreed.

[@roylandvidal7553]

179cpv if you want to hear bill Evans best intro look up "Porgy" live at village vanguard 1961. With Scott Lefaro.

[@algonquin1832]

On Green Dolphin Street (Live 1960) recording, Evans is replaced by Wynton Kelley on piano. Jazz with soul.

[@frankfrank7921]

I don't get all the prison references but I will say each solo, Miles, Trane, Cannonball and Bill Evans are mini-masterpieces with each one perfectly encapsulating their respective styles. We are truly not worthy but grateful that these gentlemen thought that we were.

[@JBGR111]

Quick explanation: There’s a very popular anime/manga series called JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, and the creator of the series loves western music, so he puts references to western music in the series by naming characters, places, and abilities after various western songs, albums, and bands. The series’ sixth story arc, Stone Ocean, takes place in a prison in Florida called Green Dolphin Street Jail, hence all the prison jokes in the comments. There are likely going to be a lot more comments made soon because the anime adaptation of Stone Ocean was just announced today

[@frankfrank7921]

Mom used to play Miles Davis non-stop. She’s gone now but last year I went by my brother in laws house for some reason and his neighbor was throwing a stack of albums out because of a divorce. 4 miles Davis albums along with a mint Beatle White album. Momma loved the Beatles too. Don’t tell me that me finding those was a coincidence. Installed a turntable in the garage and a highball glass of maple knob creek on ice and I’m lost in thought

The real reason Jotaro visit Jolyne is that he thought there's an actual Green Dolphin there

For those of you who were looking for comments from a jazz enthusiast, the intro theme is an Eb pedal with a downward chromatic movement from Eb major triad --> F# major triad --> F major triad --> E major triad --> resolving back to Eb triad. Easy to explain by concept and words, but not so obvious when explained w/ chord symbols: Eb / / /| Ebmin7 / / /| F7/Eb / / /| Emaj7/Eb / / /| Eb / / /|
