It might be too obvious but sometimes it's good to explain things, even if they are obvious. Not everyone is a jazz listener... but everybody is a potential jazz listener. If there's only one acoustic jazz album I was allowed to keep, it would be this one. There's so much in it, timeless. Solos, compositions, feel, sound, style, atmosphere.. That's why this record from 1959 is still of of the most pressed vinyl albums, still in demand all over the world. It's not only Miles Davis' best-selling jazz record, but the world's best-selling jazz album. Read more on Wikipedia Just listen and absorb :-)
This is a tune called Kalunga Dance, from my latest album Dark Horse, order it here or buy it at a concert, the next one is Brebl, Nijmegen 1 day after my birthday on 16th of April! Hope to see you there!In this performance, we featured percussionist/vocalist and world citizen Helene Jank. She lived and worked in Brazil for quite a while and I really think it's audible here. I love the way she and the band creates this moment of space within the concert and this is also why - I think - visiting concerts is important because then you get to experience the whole context of the concert. How is the program build up, how does the audience respond and what does music makes you feel. More info:Susanne Alt: sax, Matthijs Geerts and Ike van Bergen: keys, Thomas Pol: bass, Yoràn Vroom: drums, Helene Jank: percussion Performed at 16th of January 2026 at Bimhuis, Amsterdam, Recorded by Onno Prillwitz Filmed by Robert Glass and Albert Nooij. - It might be too obvious but sometimes it's good to explain things, even if they are obvious.
