Wandering Musician: January 2006
http://wanderingmusician.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Friday, January 06, 2006. I'm sure there will be millions of people commenting on what a class act Lou Rawls was. He was a great entertainer and a completely courteous personality. I saw him last summer at a rainy outdoor concert. His appreciation of the remaining crowd felt sincere and warm. We hardly noticed the rain as we enjoyed the manner of a first class entertainer as much as his music. Lou Rawls - Soulful Blues and Jazz. Come on, Come over.

Wandering Musician: June 2007
http://wanderingmusician.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Sunday, June 10, 2007. Yesterday I went to "That 70's Festival" at the Fraze Pavilion in Kettering. (Dayton) Christopher Cross was actually pretty good! I didn't realize he played all those guitar leads on his songs. The band has a clean sound and all the vocals were strong and on pitch. Ambrosias version of Magical Mystery tour was another highlight. Perfect weather and a friendly crowd made it a nice evening out. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Monday, February 11, 2008. Chick Corea and Return to Forever. It's been years since I've been to a big Jazz Fusion concert and I'm pretty excited about the upcoming Return to Forever tour. Check out the bizzaro funk after 3 minutes! Chick is playing Fender Rhodes, Mini Moog, Moog 15, Micro Mini Moog, ARP Odyssey, Yamaha Organ and Polymoog. These were cutting edge new instruments at the time! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Wandering Musician: Neal Boortz Doesn't Understand Jazz
http://wanderingmusician.blogspot.com/2007/11/neal-boortz-doesnt-understand-jazz.html
A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Monday, November 12, 2007. Neal Boortz Doesn't Understand Jazz. I'm not saying anyone is wrong in how someone appreciates music. If there is a style they like, then great, enjoy it. But caution when discussing types of music you don't yet appreciate. There is where the emperor's new clothes effect occurs. The snobs at the opera or the jazz lounge using little or no understanding to pose as superior. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Monday, February 18, 2008. I was just thinking, when was the last time you saw someone walking down the street whistling a popular tune?

Wandering Musician: Jaco Lives!
http://wanderingmusician.blogspot.com/2006/01/jaco-lives.html
A look at music, instruments, and years on the road. Thursday, January 05, 2006. Pushing my cart past the magazine shelf at Krogers, the cover of BassGuitar caught my eye. Jaco Lives! A tribute to the baddest bassman ever. Ok it's at first glance another exploitation of Jaco Pastorius focusing on his punked out persona and comparing him to Hendrix. But I ended up enjoying the 2 focused articles; one biographical and one focused on his pioneering techniques. Come on, Come over. View my complete profile.
