The rendition to start the record off of “Say a Little Prayer for You” was unexpectedly delightful. (I generally don’t care for that song.)

Dearly missed Jazz pianist and composer Ahmad Jamal’s “Winter Snow” (https://youtu.be/JuXFCD409y8?si=xFz26VMlfT-rTCyZ). This is from his 1986 album “Rossiter Road” (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mHc_tdJNfJ6yeMEycxbMfTDGJeV26BeP4&si=trwl50m7B28HrObO) which is NOT a a holiday album but it has some really great songs so check it out when you can

Just heard a version of Poinciana on the radio. Great tune. It was played similar to Jamal's arrangement, but not as well. This one's a classic.

Jazztodon artist of the week: Ahmad Jamal!

“We have a great civilization in America, but civilization is the ability to move goods from one place to another. Culture is a different thing, and civilization is nothing without culture. It’s quite evident. Just look at what’s happening today in society in the United States. When I was a kid in 1959, I made a trip to Egypt and Khartoum; those are cultures that have been around for a very long time. But there have been only two cultural contributions in America: American Indian art, which is not promoted, and American classical music — or ‘jazz’ — which also is not promoted. It ends there, and civilization cannot last or advance without culture. In this day of electronics — this machine, that machine — there are so many distractions. But I still think in terms of composing every day. I don’t necessarily put everything down, but I compose. I’ve been composing every day of my life. It’s inspiration, every day.

RIP #AhmadJamal - I loved seeing him at #SFJazz in 2019 - and how he’d point at his bandmembers when he wanted them to step up. Hilarious and awesome. #jazz

#JDilla produced the original #DeLaSoul track, Stakes is High, based on a precisely cut sample of Ahmad Jamal's 1974 track, Swahililand. One of the most famous loops in #hiphop --- the Ahmad Jamal track is also superb.

Ahmad Jamal - Poinciana

#AhmadJamal #Poinciana #Jazz #BlackMastodon

Classic #AhmadJamal live recordings from the late 50s/early 60s for today's #MorningListening

The groove he and the band find in Poinciana in '58 is so deep -- always good for slowing down and sinking in.

Inspired by news of two archival recordings from '63-'66 being released: https://www.npr.org/2022/11/28/1139388807/pianist-ahmad-jamal-has-released-a-pair-of-archival-albums
