I’ve been a bit busy on a trip to my hometown, Valencia. A bit of Sun before I get back to cloudy London.

Gm – Daily post about underrated /jazz players. Today, Kenny Dorham, trumpeter from Fairfield, TX. He played in Parker's Quintet and Gillespie big band and was part of the Jazz Messengers. Dorham is another case where premature death didn't allow his career to grow big. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ic2cVXPcN0

Gm – Daily post about underrated /jazz players. Today, Ike Quebec, saxo from Dayton, OH. Quebec's life & career was short and ended in the '63. He did not record much but worked at Blue Note label and scouted Monk & Powell. He was known for his sight reading ability. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP8JUiEVf8g

Ireland's GDP per capita is incredibly high. However, I don't see their people living way better than the British or the French. So while GDP per capita is an important figure, I am not sure we can say that figure represents people quality of living.

🧵 What are your favorite underrated jazz musicians? Mine of all times is Phineas Newborn Jr. One wonders how someone who could equal Peterson's talent could be so forgotten. Also, I love this album cover:

Gm – Daily post about underrated /jazz players. Today, Billy Strayhorn, pianist from Dayton, OH. While his name is not known, he composed 'Take the 'A' Train'. When he met Duke Ellington, he showed how he'd arrange a song of him. He joined Ellington's band for 25 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTYbhVJsUEw

I love this one. I always thought their live recordings are way better than their studio ones.

This song blends the classical jazz tones with some Turkish traditional notes.

Gm – Daily post about underrated /jazz players. Today, Tuna Ötenel, pianist & saxo from İstanbul, Turkey. Ötenel composed the 1st ever Turkish jazz album (Jazz Semai). He'd say "instead of working 30 pieces in an hour, give 30 hours to a piece". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfvYqOaf8Xs

I think he's the greatest bassist alive.
