That settles it, man. I'm goin' back to 1959 and transforming into a bebop jazz player. Today's music sucks. I'm outta here.

I stopped reading after "said."NPR and Rolling Stone said . . .
I like to play this over 2 Live Crew's F*** Shop. It's like being at a virtual brothel.But.....Cardi B's WAP is the pinnacle of musical expression
It's all strip club music. I dig it.I like to play this over 2 Live Crew's F*** Shop. It's like being at a virtual brothel.
I tried. He irks me. Can't put my finger on it, but I want to punch him in the face whenever I see him.So I dunno if any of you watch Rick Beato on youtube, but he's done a listen to the top 10 on Spotify a few times over the past 6 months. He just did one the other day. 3 of those songs were actually legit really good. And this isn't some underground stuff, this is mainstream top 40 stuff. So there is definitely hope for the mainstream, don't knock it completely.
I feel the exact same way. Not sure why, he is just delivering info, but yeah...I tried. He irks me. Can't put my finger on it, but I want to punch him in the face whenever I see him.
He's got that arrogant know-it-all persona that if you hate egomaniacs you just want to punch them in the face. I had that issue with my Dad and two older brothers-I still want to punch my two bros in the face. Some egomaniacs are harmless but others a nuisance that need a good face smashing. Is that wrong? Slap them back to reality is my hope-so an intervention. I would think we would qualify for some sort of medal or award for a public service.I feel the exact same way. Not sure why, he is just delivering info, but yeah...
You need to go further back than 1959 for bop jazz. Bop evolved from Big Band. Think Bird and Dizzy. 1940's and early 50's. By the time 1959 rolled around bop was an older genre of jazz. Kind of Blue came out in 1959. Definitely not bop. Miles declared 'war on the chord'. The track So What uses just two chords in 32 bars. Time Out was 1959, too. As for me - I much prefer what I hear as more melodic jazz coming out post-bop, but not the later free jazz or latter Miles stuff. I guess I'm more a West Coast Chet Baker sorta jazz dude. 1959 and early 60's would be my time machine destination, but not for bop.That settles it, man.

Yeah, when I hear '59 I'm thinking about the albums that came out that year that are modal jazz (Kind of Blue), hard bop (Moanin'), and cool jazz (Chet and Time Out).
