There's got to be a lunatic film director who's a jazz version of Ken Russell, and instead of making warped films about classical composers, wants to make warped films about jazz musicians. Just imagine; Mullligan and what's-her-name, acting out Ayn Rand novels- that's worthy of Ken Russell himself, if he was still alive. I think you'd do better with David Lynch on that one. Gayle Madden was her name, btw. Maracas by Madden!!! Shaken, Stirred, and What Have You Heard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole album (Neal Hefti - Li'l Darlin') sounds like that.  It dates from that all-important cutoff year, 1964.  I imagine Hefti writing the charts in late 1963, thinking that space-age modernism would continue forever, having no idea that the Beatles would come along in a few months and ruin everything.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 I would like to see a full-brained analysis dedicated to decoding the whole matter of headshots (in both painting and photography), like, the angle of the head, the direction of the eyes, the selected perspective, all that. It goes back, geez, forever, and we all just look at it. I wanna know the secret language of intent. DECODE THAT SHIT!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, man I'm no expert and I know nothing of Quigley or this particular genre. So from that perspective I see a clean cut, blue-eyed white guy from pre-Civil Rights USA looking up in hopeful optimism, perhaps to that Celestial Hillbilly Heaven. There's probably design concepts about left-to-right, angle, etc. involved as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the opening track from his obscure 1961 jazz album shows that he was already auditioning for the gig. It would fit nicely on Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn album.   Edited March 5, 2022 by Teasing the Korean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgcim Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 My father used to buy space age bachelor tomb jazz at some discount record store, "The Keating Sound " led by Johnny Keating, the British Stan Kenton? I'm reading the autobio of Vic Flick, guitar player for the John Barry 7. Some really funny stories about their TV days on "Drumbeat". It was a long road to 007.

JSngry Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I just found it on this AB Fable release of "early bebop" violin. The opening utilizes a highly echoed pizzicato or "chop-bowed" whatever that is called) that is definitely "evocative". It's on Nero's 10" Capitol, but I'm not going there.

Teasing the Korean Posted March 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Ostensibly a Cal Tjader album, Several Shades of Jade is really a Lalo Schifrin album with Cal Tjader as featured soloist. Â Another tone poem to the concrete jungle, Bobby Scott's The City, credited to Larry Elgart. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
