Thanks for the reminder about Bill Evans and his Louisiana connections.

I hope that there are enough jazz fans to occasionally visit his gravesite, because, he was a great musician and he loved his time in Louisiana, which was kind of a second home for him, after he left home as a young man.

I just bought the mono mixes of some early Miles Davis on Columbia Records, and, one of the recordings is the famous "Kind of Blue" with Bill Evans on piano. He is one of the GOAT.

He's awesome don't get me wrong. One of the greatest trumpet players of all time. I don't like the tempo as much as Dixieland though.

Do you like benny goodman?

I actually know what you mean, some of his stuff turns me off a little bit.

Have never heard of him, I'll check it out.

But when I thing of jazz-funk, I think like Gene Harris. Check out his track Higga Boom.

Sorry spellcheck, I meant Benny goodman.

I'll always be biased towards Armstrong. He's without question the GOAT. He was much better in different eras. The swing era in the 40s 50s was a little too poppy. His live stuff from 1924 - 1930 is just incredible. When miles Davis started playing he surpassed Louis I think because miles style was much more contemporary plus he was like 30 years younger than Louis. Miles had a tendency to a bit too experimental in the 60s but that's the way music was trending.

Wynton Marsailis - Buddy Boldens Blues

Buddy Boldens blues is the first jazz tune ever played. Even though I don't think wynton really captures the essence of buddy Boldens music or Dixieland jazz in general, he really displays his knowledge of the fathers of jazz in this impromptu segment.
