Once i find out to down load music from youtube & put it on a disc or other format, I'm going to put this into my 67 Mercury & drive, cruise & when i pump gas, it's going to be heard. Wow, this stuff on the radio makes my hair come out, & I'm BALD!
@rickames There is a free software called Audacity. It works g8. I've used it for quite sometime without it causing any problems to my pc. It's a monster program the price is right. Basically you record in real time, save it as an mp3 to your hdd, then burn your cd's. There are plenty of tutorials so you'll be okay. You can record radio, from a turntable, mikes etc. There is video capturing software that"s good, but you would have to convert the .flv to .wav or mp3. Hope the info helps.
@vinyltapelover You are my hero, I will keep this info in a folder so i can take the time & try this. You must be like me, a ' Duke Blue Devil fan..lol. Thanks for your info. Don't share this with the Tarheels, sorry, I love college ball. Thanks again.
@rickames "Don't share this with the Tarheels,..." No problem, we'll just keep it between u and I. No way word will get to a Tarheel:). I like college ball just no time 2 follow it. Speaking of "Blue Devils,"Google" for a video, with Count Basie and others, called " Last of the Blue Devils". produced by Clint Eastwood, who you may know is a jazz afficianado. It's worth watching. 1 more tool 4 ur folder: "Prism Video Converter" by NCH. If u want to p.m. me for followup, let me know.
@vinyltapelover I'm from NC, I am going to school to become a 'Chef'. I pray & hope to the ' Lord' I will graduate & be a sucess. Thanks for your replies, sounds like to me you're a ' brain' or you are very fluent in ' computers'. I like ' Jazz', some of it sounds like ' elevator music' with a beat. I like music i can feel, examples: Kirk Whalum, Gerald Albright, Tom Grant, Joe Sample, Mike Phillips, etc. I'm sure you're familar with some of the artist. Hey, bless you I'm a Christian! Be blessd
This is mastery and perfection! He sounds really like McCoy Tyner here with those modal chords and solos - a sound I love. I'm only 16 but I'm obsessed with jazz. I haven't listened to enough of Ahmad Jamal, but having heard this I think he's going to become someone I listen to a lot in the future. Thank you alhajem for giving us all the opportunity to hear this beautiful tune and inspiring me to listen to more of Jamal's music!
@JNatLT Decades ago I started listening to jazz at about 13. There is no upper or lower age limit to jump in, but now that you are here, welcome. You are just widening your musical horizons. Enjoy.
I was lucky enough to hear him play (twice the same evening) at the Blues Alley in Georgetown a few years ago. AMAZING. Better yet, I ended up bar-hopping with Mr Jamal after his concerts. Unforgettable experience.
Like the way Frank Z played it in combination with Murder by Numbers but they don't make players like Jamal any more, not even in stolen moments. Great. Thanks
@fign2345 - Are you Manolo Badrena??? If so, I love your playing on Steve Khan's "Blades (for Wayne Gretzky)". That is one of my favorite albums--with Steve Jordan and Anthony Jackson--you guys sound amazing on that record!
I love how he builds this performance himself. Stating the intro and melody simply but with great dynamics. Then his first solo is chordal --- mostly altering the harmony while still following the gist of the form, then more traditional bop oriented soloing with left hand accompaniment. Then his cadenza (if you want to call it that) at the end recapitulates his first few choruses. Not sure if this analysis actually helps anyone enjoy this ... Thanks.
Never heard of him, i see pictures of him from the past. He's been around for a while. I'd like to welcome you to introduce me to great jazz artist. I like: Joe Sample, Gerald Albright and a few more. But in the area of NC i like we're not introduced to jazz or have stations around here. I'm open for suggestions, thanks. This guy sounds good.
@rickames we've played in NC before at UNC Chapel Hill, ECU, UC Ashville and Charolette ( The jazz fest ) and at some art center that was once a church, it was located downtown, I think.. This was back in the 80's.
@rickames You were listening to our group, Ahmad Jamal. I was his percussionist , off and on, for almost 16 years. So I knew all of the guys that played with Ahmad.
My second favorite song of all the things I have heard by him, and he is one of my favorites. My favorite is his version of "My One and Only Love" from this album.

I guess it depends on whose transcription one views
mine for winds starts in B maj and changes to C-#min
It's very nice though, I think Jamal gives Nelson and Freddie Hubbard for that matter a lasting tribute
I wonder if Jamal knew Oliver Nelson? - probably he did
