jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites I occasionally jam with others - but I quit playing out years ago - you know the story - all that work and time for a few dollars. It has to be for the joy of it, and after a while, you get tired of playing other peoples' music. Plus I got married and had kids. I'll consider playing out again after my daughters are educated, and I have Power-Book a solo system for back up. Or one-time events with others. How about you? 07-09-16 23:05:23 __________________________________________________ | |
ekim53 ::: Favorites Wow, that sounds pretty neat, a house with a studio in the foothills of Denver...I'm beginning to turn green except for the financing part. Sounds like a scenario ripe for creativity. The good news about living in these times is the great computer based professional recording studio that can be constructed on a relatively modest budget. I wish you much success in getting suitable financing and in constructing your dream studio. Do you every play gigs or get together with others to jam? 07-09-15 00:34:44 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites I bought a Yamaha C5 in '86 new for $11k from a guy in Kansas who, turned out, was breaking Yamaha's pricing and territory rules. It has great tenor -> sopranino range, but I would like a fuller bass. But that's quibbling. My favorite dig. piano is the Kawai MP-9000, which has real hammers and great sustain. I bought it for $2k back in '98 -I see them for $700 on eBay. I'm trying to finance a new house - with a genuine studio - in the Denver foothills (Bad timing, huh?) 07-09-14 21:38:01 __________________________________________________ | |
ekim53 ::: Favorites Yes, I did buy a beautiful walnut Yamaha G3 that I literally stole for 3000. However, at that time I had the opportunity to buy a ebony Yamaha C7 for 5000! I was living in an apartment at the time and didn't think I had the room for it. I still hurt when think about that deal. I've got Korg, Yamaha,and Roland electronic pianos which I like for various reasons. How about you? 07-09-13 11:57:08 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites If you can play Jerry Lee's licks, then you have to be quite good. Yeah, I remember wearing out certain passages on the vinyl. So, did you buy yourself a nice piano? 07-09-12 19:08:13 __________________________________________________ | |
ekim53 ::: Favorites Hey, my big early influence was the Killer Jerry Lee. I loved the way he rocked the keys. I spent many hours at the piano with a turn table moving the tonearm back and forth trying to capture his licks...oh for some looping digital media with no pitch change in slow capabilities. Then came Jazz...Shelly Mann, Monk, Horace Silver, Brubeck and many others...fantastic. 07-09-12 09:37:08 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites Paradox - you really are perpetuating falsehoods about the Plame affair - they really did out her to make an example of Joe Wilson. That's really the truth of the matter, and it fits perfectly with the way the Rove White House has operated for 6 years. However, I hope you will accept my apology - I'm sorry for a lot of my language and for being so mean-spirited toward you. You didn't deserve all that. 07-09-12 03:58:50 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites It seems maybe Brubeck was the one that first really got your ear. For me it was the Beatles, and for several years, I had only minimal interest in other music. It wasn't till the '70s that I started expanding my appreciation into jazz. But much of it was so difficult I couldn't play along (rock/pop is child's-play). But with quite a bit of practice and playing along with records, I did develop a jazz style, but nowhere near the guys we've been talking about. 07-09-12 01:14:49 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites I have a friend who says he is fatigued from digital music (16-bit, 42-48KHz) on CD's and is going back to vinyl. I know what he is talking about, as sampling rates in the 40KHz range do produce audible artifacts (sort of a high-frequency interferometer effect), but they don't bother me, as I don't think I can hear much above 12 or 13 KHz. Oscar is wonderful, and I used to see him on TV, doing magic and making it look easy. 07-09-12 01:04:01 __________________________________________________ | |
jaZZjaZZ54 ::: Favorites Well, the "54" in my handle is my birth year. But my emotional development was arrested during puberty, so perhaps that's why you thought me young. To my regret, I didn't really pay too much atention to the great drummers growing up. I liked Ringo, Bill Bruford (especially with King Crimson), and then I got into the ECM sort of jazz with greats like Jon Cristensen, Jack DeJohnette. Return to Forever's Airto Moreira was a favorite. 07-09-12 00:53:28 __________________________________________________ |
