I am not going to post this list every day because it would get tedious on the site. Maybe I’ll do it weekly. (forgot to post on Sunday, so now Monday will be More Music Monday)
#5 – This is Fats – Fats Domino (1956)
#6 – Ellington at Newport – Duke Ellington.(1956) (bit of slog this one. Not a jazz fan)
#7 – Songs for Swingin’ Lovers – Frank Sinatra (1956)
#8 – The “Chirping” Crickets – Buddy Holly (1957)
#9 – The Atomic Mr. Basie – Count Basie (1958)
#10 – Brilliant Corners – Thelonious Monk (1957)(still not a jazz fan)
#11 – Palo Congo – Sabu (1957)
#12 – Birth of the Cool – Miles Davis (1957)
Now I remember why the last time I decided NOT to do it in order. So much jazz in the beginning. I just don’t get it. Never will. Explain it all you want, I will not get it.
