+TFP 3141 So true!

I play both .... Jazz is a lot more difficult!

Classical music is super-demanding as well in other ways, interpreting, sight-reading, dynamics ... And I play Jazz...

I agree Not a pianist here BUT (tbh) out of spite I learned one of Bach's 2 part inventions no13 in a minor (on piano). OK I do realize not the hardest piece to learn but its no beginners piece at the same time. I used to be able to play it fluently in time good feel. I honestly had no prior piano experience practically spealing. I knew where middle C was on the grand staff what a sharp and flat was etc I was able to learn it w out any outside help. It does involve counterpoint. I figured out allthe fingerings by myself. ANYWAY I learned it because I thought it sounded cool was challenging and not too long. But ALSO BECAUSE I WAS SICK OF THE SNOBBERY associated with classical music musicians etc I now know anyone can learn classical music because it is all written out for note for note. Jazz on the other hand relies on theory technique creativity and dialect. Much more involved than classical music. I always felt that way and wanted to prove it to myself. I feel it is true!

Blacks Innovated the music in numerous categories and that's why not popularized . Big Bands always had Black great rivals to white bands and these were viewed as threats to White power economically,religiously and otherwise due to intellectual global awakening appeals that defied white superiority plus feeling rarely expressed by other races as forcefully!

But what is a so-called 'extraterrestrial funkonaut' ? -- Have you ever come across one...like, ever ??

Notwithstanding that, Eric Harland certainly does one of the all-time greatest drum solos...

tunefultony johnson I never met him, but I'd say Sun Ra qualifies. Absolutely!

I'm noticing what he's doing during the vibraphonist's solo, beginning around 1:17. Eric Harland seems capable like no other drummer I've heard lately.

Seanan Gibbs yes very propulsive drummer but very sophisticated rounded sound I like how it blends into this wave lifting the soloist forward. Even his solo is an even and interesting lush carpet.

Upload something pax

@@jesseolsson1697 Oh me geez I am playing alot of solo piano here in Copenhagen but kinda out of the habit I probably need a tech helper at this point perhaps. Bro. Do I know you? Honestly I am more focused on trying for some kind of break through with my playing.

Check out invisible cinema (album) by Aaron Parks.

+dr05guitar This tune loves you, buddy, as well :)

You mean, like WHO drummer Keith Moon was accustomed to doing when he was high up on speed ?? .... :)

What does the word (that is, if it exists) "concatenating" mean.....??

Just think, t.j., if only you were on the Internetz you could (within a few seconds) look up this word in something called a "search engine" and -- voilà! You'd know new shit that you didn't know! (Like perhaps, for instance, the technical use of the word "concatenation" in formal logic language and computer programming.) And just think further, you could do this all by yourself without having to involve anybody else!! This is known as "using your own resources to properly pursue interests that may be solely yours to pursue and not necessarily anybody else's concern." Here's a word-puzzler for you to try out this methodology: what does "caetextia" mean? Cheers.

I myself don't mind involving other people, doing things like asking question on internetz threads like this one. Gee you're smart. Have a day...cheers...

Yes! 7 years after you posted this, I was just noticing this. On McCoy's Supertrios album, they play the head the usual way, but during the solos they leave out a couple of measures in that section.
