Charles Mingus - So Long Eric, Orange Was The Color Of Her Dress, Then Blue Silk, & Parkeriana (and Take The A Train) [Norway 4/12/64]

I'm astounded by the sound & video quality of this vid from youtube. Can you tell I've been in a Mingus mood lately? Common's voice always kinda reminded me of Mingus' (the timbre of it)...

^ Yeah, been noticing more and more of these hi-quality vids on youtube.  Good to know that there still people out there who will take the time to rescan-digitize old archive film.

I love strings with jazz...

Gonzalo Rubalcaba & Mariza - El Hombre Que Yo Ame (The Man I Love)

Portuguese singer Mariza with Cuban pianist Rubalcaba...Beautiful song...





Mariza - Rosa Branca

Some of you have guessed that I listen to all types of music from around the world. In doses, I like Fado from Portugal. Mariza is one of the genre's biggest artists...

Wynton Kelly - On Green Dolphin Street, Softly As In A Morning Sunrise, & Autumn Leaves

Anyone down with Wynton Kelly? Some of you have said you like Piano players...This guy gets overlooked...
