My best wishes to the tread for 2017
and to all its great posters !
It's always a real joy to check the posts
and all these amazing tasty surprises !!
Art Tatum &
Ben Webster, a smooth and strong duo :
pure jazz, perfect for an inspired new year.
Sylvie Vartan, a french icon, for the energy :
this vintage
"twisting" scopitone from early 60's worth to be watched !
Around 25/30 years ago I used to met her personally every Summer
as we bought our books in the same bookstore in Bordeaux
(at the time she had a holydays house on the Coast, not so far from here).
And she was really impressive : not only strangely beautiful
but a real intellectual too, in spite of her "popular" singer status.
I just regret to don't have groped her between Shakespeare and Marlowe...
Miles Davis with the creme of the creme :
Horace Silver (piano),
Thelonious Monk (piano),
Sonny Rollins (sax),
Milt Jackson (vibraphone),
Kenny Clark (drums),
Percy Heath (bass).
