. ives 4th, om, ascension. sonny and linda's black woman,

and what else?

[Uncle Skid]

Almost anything by Cecil Taylor... but, it was a good friend that introduced me to Cecil, so maybe that rule doesn't always apply!

[Chuck Nessa]

Don't play any music for "non-musical" friends, play anything for "musical friends" - just ask Lazaro and Skid.

[Parkertown]

"Play this record, and all your friends will leave"!

[Hot Ptah]

I can't play any of my music for nearly all of my friends. There are three or four who enjoy it all, but they now live in distant states. Otherwise there is not a single album I would think of playing for anyone.

Same here.

[jazzbo]

I don't play music for many friends, most that I do will listen to most anything Brazilian and any of the blues, and funk and rock I have (though some not the Dead) and most jazz that's swing or mainstream oriented.

I have one friend I can play almost anything except avant garde jazz with/for. . . he just doesn't enjoy New Thing and beyond much at all.

[Shawn]

That's definitely not me....

[jazzbo]

NO, I can play anything around you. . .almost. Just there's too many miles between us!

[Noj]

Most of my friends long since banned me from playing "music without words."

bob rusch told aloc that people who like free jazz are mostly loners, at least in their jazz listening.

[Aggie87]

Aggie87 wonders if Bob Rusch told Aloc twice. Then Aggie87 realized it was probably an accidental double-post.

(PS - can we stop with the third person speak?)

[mikelz777]

Unfortunately, my family doesn't like jazz. My 11 and 13 year old don't have a choice, they have to listen to my jazz when I listen to it. They'll grudgingly admit that a lot of what I play isn't bad but they wouldn't choose to listen to it. My wife hates anything jazz unless it's a nice, melodic piano-based jazz trio. I have to listen to most of my jazz on headphones or while I'm alone or only with my daughters.

isnt it magnificent when someone recognizes ayler, or trane, or rollins that you didnt expect to?

that's probably happened a couple times to some of us.

Well that doesnt seem to apply to you 3! I mean 2 is company and three is a crowd...

[7/4]

I'm careful about what I play for other people. I do have friends who listen to my music, but with one exception, they don't live around here.

[clifford_thornton]

I just play whatever I want for whomever I want.

Most of my friends are pretty cool and appreciative of my musical taste. As I likewise am or try to be.

Shawn thinks that Aloc should feel free to talk about himself in the 3rd person as much as he wants. Shawn is all about freedom of expression...baby!

Aggie87 got a laugh out of that, and Aggie87 also wants Shawn to know he likes Shawn's avatar!

[Parkertown]

Another for Shawn's avatar!

I mean:

Parkertown like Shawn's avatar too, and thinks he should never change it. 'Scepting if it's for a 'nother pic of that Earth Angel, Ms. Johannson...

Scarlet Johannson is a dream come true. I love Ghost World.
