But I don't know... I've seen Dianne Reeves in concert 3 times and while I like some of her CDs, she really seems to come across best in front of an audience. Here's one of my favorite live performances by her which, fortunately, was taped. I wish these two had recorded a duo album. They seem like a comfortable musical pair. Quote

Here's one of my favorite live performances by her which, fortunately, was taped. I wish these two had recorded a duo album. They seem like a comfortable musical pair. There's a track my current BFT that features her singing "Down Here On The Ground" that comes from one of those BN Remix projects they do every so often, and it is amazing. I mean, my god, where does that come from? Somewhere inside, obviously, right? So, I'm thinking that maybe I had missed something over the years, and...not really? I think that Edward Murrow soundtrack has some good things on it, so maybe sometimes. But otherwise, I hear some good singing, but no real RWAHHHH of guts that gets everything out of the way except THAT. She's an enigma to me, sorta, obviously a wonderful instrument, but always a little...restrained. I would go see her live, though, assuming I could afford it. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 29, 2021 Report Posted March 29, 2021 (edited) The 5th and final disc of the "Complete Capitol Live Recordings of the George Shearing Quintet" on Mosaic Records, cd version. I had to put something pleasant and breezy on after discovering that my favorite US high school teacher (I only went to high school the final two years in the US) passed away yesterday, and I found out when someone posted a picture of him in the classroom including me as a very competently slouching student from about 49 years ago. Sad. He was never boring--boredom was my biggest enemy in those years as I had learned so much in the boarding school I was at in Swaziland that almost all the cirriculum was something I had learned before.
