8 Perfect jazz songs
Ago 20 2012, 17h07 por bloodmaw
Jazz music has been regarded as one of the most sophisticated and respected genres in music. It has also been about striving for the perfect mixture of notes and sounds through improvisational means. The root of jazz is for the musician to discover beauty through their own pairing and combining of notes, almost as if they write their own story as they go along. The journey is different for everyone, which is why the world is graced with an enormous and endless pool of musicians and sub-genres created out of jazz.
This journal is to show what I believe to be the very rare moments in jazz where the musicians reach absolute perfection. No flaws, so mistakes, no small sections where the listener is only listening to get to the good parts. Jazz is a difficult genre to dig in to because finding perfection is a rare experience, but also one of the most rewarding of all the genres of music. Take a listen and see if you agree with me. (#4 is only an excerpt, sadly)

ABCs of 60s Jazz
Fev 14 2012, 21h59 por brianshazaaam
You know the drill from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s lists. I wasn't originally planning on doing a 60s list, hence why it's appearing out of order, but I enjoyed making the other ones so I decided to put one together. Several greats knocked off because they were featured on previous lists, including John Handy, McCoy Tyner, Joe Henderson, Sun Ra, Herbie Hancock, Gary Burton, Alice Coltrane, Freddie Hubbard, Bill Evans, and Miles Davis. This means some obvious classics were lost (Maiden Voyage, Inner Urge, Nefertiti, Hub-Tones), but I kind of like that because it gives me a chance to promote other lesser known but great albums. Also cut were Sonny Rollins, Andrew Hill, Charles Mingus, Archie Shepp, Wes Montgomery, Oliver Nelson, Albert Ayler, Lee Morgan, and some wild free jazz blasts from the BYG label including albums by Dave Burrell and Alan Silva.
Autumn - Don Ellis And His Orchestra (1968 Columbia)
Back At The Chicken Shack - Jimmy Smith (1960 Blue Note)

Famous Dead Musicians/Artists and Causes of Death (Pt 1, Age 16-36)
Jul 23 2011, 23h56 por thomas10
This is an article in which I tried to bundle all the great losses of rock'n roll and modern music. That means all the musicians which are worldwide known and died at young age (before 51 years old). I tried to give a little information about the way they died. Most of the information I got from Wikipedia. When someone thinks I forgot an artist or that the information is incorrect... I'm open for new information.
The list is in order of age of dying
For the artists older than 36 I'll recommend you Pt 2;

Ritchie Valens (1941-1959)
Plane crash. After a winning cointoss and despite of his fear to fly, together with Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper, he flew out of the Mason City airport in a small plane that Holly had chartered. The plane flew into a blinding snowstorm and crashed shortly after takeoff. This is known as "The Day The Music Died".
