yeah, i guess that while he preserves in aspic a particular era of jazz, it's the particular era of jazz that i love the most, so all good.

 

[danny la rouge]

Superb gig. Thanks Ronnie's!

 

[danny la rouge]

Wooh!

 

[killer b]

probably on for another half hour at least danny. he doesn't scrimp on the encores iirc.

i liked it just then when they were in close on marsalis and the sax player (walter blanding?), and you could see blanding deciding whether to come in or not on with the occasional lick. in fact, i love the interplay of musicians almost more than anything else at a good jazz gig - the tension, the humour, the occasional fuck ups, the occasional pulling back from the brink. love it.

 

[danny la rouge]

I enjoyed that.

(I'm still getting sound, btw).

 

[danny la rouge]

Sound gone now.

 

[danny la rouge]

Oooh. You can wind the player back and rewatch!

 

[ska invita]

wow that was great - much more modern than i was expecting (you missed that bit kb ) - loved the mellow number midset (aural oasis? cheesey name, great tune, did anyone catch what he mumbled about it on the intro?) - that pianist was amazing i thought, really unusual technique no? - in fact when the horns went off i wouldve hapilly just had the trio...blah blah blah, great set, feeling very nice and mellow after all that - good night

aha! i wonder if it keeps it as a recording - you can on some livestream things i think...

and yeah great sound, but its also the best sounding venue ive ever been in

Crap chord changes he wishes he hadn't written. Doesn't know what he was thinking 30 years ago when he wrote it. But he's got into them over the years. Something like that.

i liked it - was simple but hit the spot on a tired week day night - killer bass solo at the end. What would you call this kind of jazz, post-bop?

Yes, I liked it too.

I think the term for it is "straight ahead jazz". It was pretty much a hard bop tune, with maybe some post bop nods. Reminded me of an early Wayne Shorter composition.

 

[danny la rouge]

I don't go along with the harsh criticism of Marsalis. He may be backward-looking, but he can play what he likes if it sounds that good.

I do agree that sometimes it can sound like pastiche. Someone like Mingus could sound convincingly rooted in tradition, playing old styles as well as looking forward. At times Marsalis can sound like a great trumpet player playing someone else's repertoire.

But not last night; that was pretty convincing.

Apart from the blues on the encore it all sounded contemporary to me, but what do i know

have a good one rory! im at work so cant listen atm

Have a listen to Wayne Shorter Speak no Evil.

thats a classic 60s swinging modal cut though - i know lots of the elements from the 60s era remain, but a lot of the stuff last night sounded like that more 'post-bop' contemporary sound from around the 80s onwards (and you still get lots of that written and played today)... I mistakenly thought he only did the preservationist thing, and although he definitely does do a lot of standards in a standard way (especially all the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra stuff) i never realised there was a more contemporary part of his catalogue... seems like theres a fair bit of it too.

maybe we should save this for the jazz history thread when we get to the 80s in 2015

My favourite WM albums are Black Codes (From the Underground), J Mood, which are post bop, and Marsalis Standard Time, Vol.1, which is a collection of standards, less boppy, but with odd time signatures superimposed.
