Pim Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Very curious how everybody liked this one. I was so excited when I heard about the release but to be honest I am a little disappointed. It’s not bad but none of the musicians sound really inspired. It sounds like an ordinary jamsession and I miss interaction. Anyone else who feels the same way or am I just very wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the 80's they were (exceedingly talented) seasoned pros doing repertory in a lot of ways, more polish and less fire than the early days.

Ken Dryden Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 It was a part of my last Jazz Messengers order but I've yet to hear it, as it was a big order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the other jazz titles from that series are stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted April 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I still hadn't pulled the trigger. Sounds like I might want to hold off. What a bummer. I had high expectations... Timeless Heart is still one of my all-time favorite LPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's subtle, finely-tuned, almost chamber jazz-ish. But I do LOVE it -- from the first note to the last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
