Sounded to me like a case of some bitter man who felt he had not received his star dues. It´s very possible it was that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I witnessed this on several occasions. The local rhythm section was doing a good job and swung and they had played with enough visiting US greats (bigger names than Joe Newman), and he stood their and lectured the guys how to play, what to play, what not to play...…. it was so embarassing. If it would have been some heavy stuff with difficult forms , tempo changes and tricky chords, okay...…. but you don´t have to be a Nobel Price winner to Play "Bye Bye Blackbird", the local Rhythm section had played that stuff 100s of times and sure knew how to play "Blackbird" without all that lecturing shit from Joe Newman. That's a bummer. Sorry to hear that. Hopefully, he was just having a one-off asshole day. And if not... I'm sure quite a few of our musical heroes weren't the nicest people you were ever going to meet. People like Miles and Stan Getz come to mind immediately. IIRC, we have a whole thread dedicated to "Jerk Musicians" here on the board. Still gonna listen to the music they made though -- if it's any good.

jazzbo Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 I re-listened to Tania Maria's "Bela Vista." Some awesome music there. And that singing! And now onto more singing, another Brazilian singer, who I also love to listen to: Maucha Adnet & Helio Alves, "Milagre." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duaneiac Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Disc 2 of 2. When I was a lad, Dinah Shore had a daytime TV chat show and she seemed to me to be utterly square and corny. There sure ain't nothing square or corny about this -- That's a little vocal gem, which for me, ranks right up there with the immortal versions of this song recorded by Frank Sinatra and Sarah Vaughan.
