Psyber Spine posted:Yes! So I guess it's the jazz structure of the songs that I like? I've not been exposed to a lot of jazz growing up so I'll have to explore the genre a bit more. What does "boogaloo" mean in this context? I've seen it on a few songs that don't seem to have anything in common. Boogaloo was one of the Latin music crazes of the 60s, and kinda like mambo I think the word stopped having any definite meaning very quickly

Other than letting Spotify play Jacques Brel radio, where do I go from here? Don't care if its English, French, or gibberish, just love the sound.

My annoying elitist opinion is that once Ellington clicks with you, Mingus seems much less important and exciting. The sweeping concepts and suites are there, but with better songs and more energy. You just have to get past the inherent corniness of old jazz e: and with Ellington I would start with the late albums like Far East Suite, New Orleans Suite and Afro-Bossa for that exact reason, they have a more modern big band sound but one that's obviously built on what the orchestra did in the 20s and 30s Ras Het fucked around with this message at 10:15 on Jun 27, 2022 |
