Around here, one never knows.

Speaking of jazz and drugs, there is an excellent Playboy interview with Ellington, Adderley, Gillespie, and others about how they dealt with rampant drug use among their peers and sidemen of the time:

Yes , hearing Scott and Bill talking to each other is lovely..

I meant the audience!

I meant the audience!

Oh, that too but the exchanges between musicians intrest me more

You get a fair bit of audience chat at the end, after bills efforts to fill the last 30 sec of tape come to a end

You guys need to get this thread back on track. I know Miles, Coltrane, Mingus, and other "classics", but I'm pretty new to this jazz stuff, and I need more tips! Keep 'em coming!

I'm afraid It's Impossible! (Actually recorded in the 1970s by the way, one of my favorite tracks of all time.)

Here is a current promising Jazz trio. . .

Great interplay in complex modern jazz.

Phronesis!

Just sat down in my listening chair to listen to a local NPR Jazz show called The Friday Night Vibe. 3 hours of jazz. Don't miss it unless I'm away from home and away from the internet. Two local DJ's take turns of hosting. Playing traditional Be-Bop tonight.

Duke Ellington and friends at the Harlem Cats Eatery in 1942. . . C-Jam Blues!

Historic footage.

I'm sure there are other NPR stations that will run it at different times in different time zones.

Checking it out now!

Just throwing some great guitar out there. . . Amir asked that I post here in return for him making this a sticky thread. . . how insensitive.
