...Forgot to recommend a nice last.fm-tool written by a German coder/hacker: -- https://lastfm.live/zezinho57 -- Brings back some features CBS had removed from last.fm when it is used "live", i.e. simultaneously to your scrobblings. Does even show lyrics (if they are available @ Musixmatch)

Hello. I came here from the Mary Lou Williams page. I happen to have that Monk book you mentioned so of course had to check out your page. I'm glad I did and I am currently enjoying Tara Fuji.

ahhhhhh :lol I had a faint idea of that, but i couldn't see it confirmed .... I doubted because the <<Hilliard Ensemble>> is less prominent present in this new profile, if i've seen this correctly. On the other hand i didn't had many friends with such a focus on classical music, because i hardly scrobbled classical music at that time (except for some Bach and Bartok, because i wanted to have them near me :D). I Just played cd's :)

Yes, it's a bit of a ghost town now. For what it's worth I've started to listen to a lot more soundtrack music since we last spoke---I play it in the background while writing movie reviews. It's skewed my stats a bit (you'll see Nino Rota now near the top---I like him but without that daily listening pattern he wouldn't break into my top 50).

well stats are just last.fm stats. When I don't scrobble that doesn't mean i don't listen to music. And music outside last.fm doesn't follow the same statistics. Sometimes it's compatible, sometimes it's totally the opposite :) Some music is overrated here, some music (very) underrated. I hardly scrobble "classical" music, in any case a lot less as i listen to it. When i scrobble i tend to choose some sorter tracks (at least not so often the long tracks of Miles f.e. :D) So even the device influences my music choices :)

Wiser ...... your words :lol I was in the Duke lately , you in the Talking Heads , I see :) No real new discoveries, although the blues i played last days are some re-discoveries. I hadn't played them much. Furthermore i don't recall very clearly what i can recommend to you :lol , although i think you were (are) broad-minded Tried a (one month) subscription here to discover ..... but it looks (hears) like it's not really worth the money. See hardly any extra features, just a few statistics.

well when yet answering your question .... Don't remember (and see so quickly) that you love ze blues (well your nickname could give a hint :lol). I'm besides a jazz also a blues fan. And within that genre i love the ladies blues. Now listening to a great favorite of mine : Victoria Spivey. This album (https://www.last.fm/music/Victoria+Spivey/_/I+got+a+man+in+the+%27bama+mines) is a surprising one. In technical quality i mean (i always like Spivey :D) ; that's not always the case. So maybe you could give this a try. It is on spotify .... if you are there too :lol

pfui ..... difficult question. Not really the way I listen to music. I know , i should learn a bit more about names and combis. I just listen to albums without knowing who plays the music (except for the main musician on that album :D) When I started to listen jazz (with davis albums) i did look for the names. I wanted to learn new names, but that's long ago. But as i said earlier, you're more the encyclopedist as i am. I know he sounds well with Coltrane. The other combis i don't know by heart, although i am quite sure i have them on disc :lol

yes, that's the album I have :) But I feel not sure about having heard it from this album. I have 135 folders .... that's about the amount of albums (besides cd's). I am not sure I've listened them all. I see i also have it on cd. In any case on The complete recordings 1945-1960. Maybe I've heard it there (more probable)

Wow, maybe it's not too late for me to learn how to play then haha Thats a really wide spectrum but i can say the same about my taste. I love jazz piano from Duke to Cecil Taylor. Check The Awakening from 1970, it's my favorite by Jamal. And dont let him to deceive you. At first he may sounds mild but his trio grooves like the whole Basie's orchestra:)

I wonder how old were you when you have started playing piano? I never learned it despite i had it at home when i was growing up. Btw who is you favoritre jazz pianis? Mine is probably Ahmad Jamal. Yes, i know this interview:) Sonny is a unique person, not only a unique musician.

As the guy above said: "All my work is gone!" They deleted lots of uploaded covers (of rare stuff) just as some artist wikis and a lot of song wikis created by users. Another thing showing they fucked up is: They cut all APIs for hackers/programmers to edit bonus stuff or nice tools. Even normalizr.com doesn't work anymore! (It turned the charts from listening count into listenig time)

Sorry for my late answer and thanks for the compliments: Yes, last.fm completely fucked up! It has turned from some kind of real social network (I met a lot of users in Real Life, even from other countries, some of them are still good friends) into a fucking seller-consumer thing... To be honest: It's dead! ...No, it's been murdered by CBS!

Dear Jos, thank you. I wish you to cope with all planned deals fast and easy. And, of course, be happy in your new house ! Take care of yourself (esp your back!). I'm always ready to give you my support, moral at least (I'm not sure about my back, there may be some difficulties :D) What about the balance ... I will try. But depend on you too! Hope we find it together )) Have a wonderful year!
