as a black i will say this, that the older blacks- those in their early forties on are definitely more skin color conscious than those in their twenties. thirties and those still in their teens. i guess it just has alot to do with the way that they have experienced the world growin gup.
Racist? Wynton? No, just educated. Not less that a generation ago blacks and whites were drinking out of different water fountains. Believe it, we are more racist than we care to think. It will take time before social equality is a reality in America. And I'm whiter than I care to believe. We can all say how past racism we are until we hire someone. I guarantee we will hire the guy that looks the most like us. Human nature - and the system in America today favors the white male.
Got to love Caravan - first time I heard it, it was The New Society Synchopators at The Fountain in Barnton, Edinburgh. Featuring "Chick Murray" on drums for the solo!
The House of Tribes audiences are always so damn into the perfomance and generally looks like a nice atmosphere. Those things come together for some sick playing!!! Thanks for posting these videos!
I thought I was in love with a woman. She left me for another man. Sent me to the psy ward, broke up my family, kids in foster care, treated me like dirt but I keep going back for more .. until one day she played me the Osmond and asked if how I liked it. Only then I knew I was barking up the wrong tree. Many thanks to Wynton, many thanks to Jazz.
How is Wynton a racist? I've seen him play with whites, asians, and mexicans. In fact in the early 80's my father, who is white, hung out with Wynton and Branford. He said Wynton was really cool.
Wynton used to hold racist views about white jazz musicians, but has since recanted those statements. A lot of that is discussed in Ethan Iverson's (The Bad Plus) blog "Do The Math", when Iverson conducted an interview with Marsalis.
I've had the pleasure of sitting in with him when LCJO came into Atlanta. He's a good cat with such a head on his shoulders for both music and jazz history. Plus, he's got a great sense of style. Who can hate that?
the people don't how to respond because they're parents didn't teach them... it's not their fault; they just want to express how the music makes them feel.
Nah man! When you dig something someone is playing, you gotta tell them. You have to vocalize. Most of the players feed off of that so much man. Besides, thats how you feel jazz, man. Thats what makes jazz so much better, knowing you are reaching into peoples souls and just making them feel like that.
Of course, there are so players that don't dig that, and its cool with me. I know Keith Jarret will stop in the middle of playing if someone sneezes or makes a noise he can hear.
I hear ya, I saw an old Buddy Rich video and he literally says "shut up" when some guy in the crowd is yelling his name. Buddy Rich was kind of an asshole anyway. If the audience is lovin' it, the least the performer can do is respect the listener and the money they paid when they walked in the door.
Wynton Marsalis one of the greatest musicien on the planet. It's too bad some spectator are acting like if they were at the last concert of the Beatles.
Such intelligence and harmonic variation. I am always wowed by Wynton's ability to fully express himself on the trumpet. Bless him.
