Glad to hear it. Discovery is always a lot of fun, regardless of latency. Don't stop there. There were/are many good musicians performing excellent work from the 1950s and 60s on. Please keep looking. I'll mention just a few I consider deserving of attention (and this is by no means comprehensive): Yusef Lateef, John Coltrane, Eddie Palmieri, Sun Ra, Oliver Nelson, John Hicks, Joe Henderson, Duke Pearson, Cal Tjader, Cannonball Adderley, …, MJQ, …). If you would like to hear an(other) excellent tune in 5/4 besides /Take Five/ circa nine years later, check out Yusef Lateef's rendition of /Get Over, Get Off and Get On/ on the album "The Blue Yusef Lateef". There are wonderful contemporary musicians, long-standing and novel, worth seeing at the most intimate of venues, the nightclub, as you have found. My first nightclub experience, long ago, was Cannonball Adderley at the London House in Chicago, circa 1968, and I've enjoyed such a venue ever since. Nothing is better. |
