Jazz Is Just A Gas - ScottB55

Description : This is a blend of traditional and acid jazz including some trumpet rides reminiscent to later Miles Davis styles. I'd like to welcome a good friend and GREAT pianist, Damian Volstock, who I did studio work with in Alabama, many moons ago. If you're a jazz fan, give this one a spin.

This hits just right. Loving how the kick and bass is locked perfectly.

I dont know about any of you guys. But jazz always sounds like pure improv to me. It's got just something special about it that sepereates it from other genres. Ohh well. Loved this track and the vintage type sound the mixing gave it sounds really good ! God I love how it drops into the funkieness around 1:40 for a few seconds :) this is awesome. Dam after 3:24 it gets even more funky !! Love the melody . you could almost make this section another song all together !

Hi Livingsoulsdie,

Yes, some jazz styles have a lot of improvisation. Some are a bit more structured other than the lead rides, but I digress.

Anyway, really glad you like it and took time to comment.

Cheers,
Scott

This made me smile so much I had to give it another play. I don't usually listen to jazz either! Fantastic stuff.

Good for you, my friend. So glad you like it enough to give it another spin. I always like to put a little something extra in my jazz tracks so that listeners of other genres can find something they like.

Cheers,
Scott

Bravo Scott.....I'm really enjoying this jazzy adventure of yours. So many interesting and lively elements in this track which is truly a successful mixture of classical jazz and acid jazzz. Good choice of instruments forming broad spectrum from naughty sax sounds to great piano soloing!
Nice trumpets as well and some excellent drumming. Several transitions are also very clever and effective! Faved!!

Biggest compliments_____Orlando

Sweet Sweet Jazz.....Perfect compliment to my glass of Cidre de glace this evening, enchanting, acidic and bubbly yet refined. Am I describing music or a riesling? Damn fine listening in these old Bose speakers tonight. Great work guys!

Many thank, Cru. We appreciate your kind words.

I'm about to crack open a box of fine wine, myself. I'm not the connoisseur you are, LOL!

Great stuff Scott (as usual)

The contrabass and the piano work are outstanding...don't forget about the drums of course...:-)
Who played that piano?

Handshake, Danke

ScottB55 replied 29th Aug 2015 - 11 years ago
Thanks allot, Danke. Great to read your kind words.

The piano is done by a guy I met online. His name is Damian Volstock, a retired pro. I hope to get him back on a future track.

Cheers,
Scott

Woowwwwwooooww.....this is some really gooooood stuffffff. I hear this being played live at an outdoor jazz festivals (in my head). I love the horn...it's all in the pocket. This is without a doubt the best jazz offering ever on Looperman. Thank you for the awesome download!!!

Love & Light,

Mykael

Impressive beginning and it only got better when the bass kicked in. I listened to this a few times and "wow!" just keeps popping into my thoughts! Loved the muted trumpet, the trumpet player in my old band would use his from time to time, it always made me smile. Are these real musicians playing bass, horns, flute? It doesn't sound like plugins to me. You have some talented friends my talented friend!

Top notch, one of the best jazz songs I've heard on the site. Great song Scott, keys were sweet all the way through and a nice variety. Always a pleasure!

Yes, these are real musicians that I met on the net and they were kind enough to help me out.

It's always a plus when I get favorable comments from fine musicians like yourself.

Description : Mindway and The Monzder Squadd go together like peanut butter and jelly man. This is our 4th or 5th collab, I think, but for this one, Pnnywze wanted to blend his and Mindway's production styles and see what happens. This is what happens.

NOTE - Shared this one yesterday before I realized that Rob Fame's verse at the end was messed up. So I'm sharing it with Rob's part cut out until my brother fixes it tomorrow.
