This wiki needs a jazz page.  It will very likely grow. The name of this page is taken from Oakland-based Ishmael Reed's 1972, ''Mumbo Jumbo'', which conjures "a centuries-old battle between two shadow forces: a group representing European institutional order and Jes Grew, a virus/movement/pleasure-seeking principle originating among black artists."<ref>Nawal Arjini (3 June 2019), "[https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/ishmael-reed-haunting-of-lin-manuel-miranda-hamilton-play-review/ Ishmael Reed Tries to Undo the Damage ‘Hamilton’ Has Wrought]", ''The Nation''.</ref>

*It’s up to its Text. For some, it’s a disease, a plague, but in fact it is an anti-plague. You will recall, Black Herman, that in the past there were germs that avoided words.<ref>Ishmael Reed, ''Mumbo Jumbo'', 1972.</ref>  
====McCoy Tyner====
 
McCoy Tyner died on March 6, 2020, aged 81.<ref>Ben Ratliff, "[https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/06/arts/music/mccoy-tyner-dead.html McCoy Tyner, Jazz Piano Powerhouse, Is Dead at 81]", ''New York Times'', 6 March 2020 </ref> It appears he was scheduled to be at Jazz à Vienne, perhaps even with Ravi Coltrane (again?)
 
  
Less than two weeks later, Nduduzo Makhathini <span style="font-size:72%;color:#777;">(cf. ''infra'')</span>, a South African pianist/healer,<ref>Staff Reporter, "[https://mg.co.za/article/2014-10-30-ndudozo-makhathini-in-sync-with-a-higher-power/ Nduduzo Makhathini finds the gift of healing in song]", ''Mail & Guardian'', 30 October 2014 </ref> had posted :

After starting the page, I learned of Conjure's "[https://www.deezer.com/en/album/6286068 Jes' Grew]" and that Jazz is Dead ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-2yje6S8vg §], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_Is_Dead_(record_label) §]).

Both have some cool Snoopy (Vince Guaraldi) moments and amazingly stitched transitions.  Hedge-clippers have been tuned to sound either like a typewriter or scissors in the second track.  There's Schroeder piano tantrums, grand eerieness and delicacy, even a few stop-with-all-the-damned-notes-already moments thrown in for good measure...  overall... a lot of fun.

Latest revision as of 20:33, 20 January 2023

This wiki needs a jazz page. It will very likely grow. The name of this page is taken from Oakland-based Ishmael Reed's 1972, Mumbo Jumbo, which conjures "a centuries-old battle between two shadow forces: a group representing European institutional order and Jes Grew, a virus/movement/pleasure-seeking principle originating among black artists."[1]

  • What do you think that this Jes Grew is up to?
  • It’s up to its Text. For some, it’s a disease, a plague, but in fact it is an anti-plague. You will recall, Black Herman, that in the past there were germs that avoided words.[2]

After starting the page, I learned of Conjure's "Jes' Grew" and that Jazz is Dead (§, §).

Tomaze Dąbrowski & the Individual Beings
Album made for the late Tomasz Stańko wd, whose horn Dąbrowski plays exceedingly well. His is only one voice among many on this disquieting wander through electric marshlands. Worth its eclectic stars on the web and the headache it might give you. :P
Tomasz Dąbrowski wd– Trumpet and Electronics | Fredrik Lundin wd (the Dane) – Tenor Saxophone | Irek Wojtczak wd– Tenor and Soprano Saxophone plus Electronics | Grzegorz Tarwid wd– Grand Piano and Keyboards | Max Mucha wd– Double Bass | Knut Finsrud (The Norwegian) – Acoustic Drums | Jan Emil Młynarski – Electric and Acoustic Drums
