Why Don't Musicians Play Ballads, Anymore?

 


From Bret "Jazz Video Guy" Primack.

Come Sunday (Ellington) Oscar Peterson, Piano; Ben Webster,, Tenor Saxophone; Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, Bass and Tony Inzalaco, Drums. Recorded December 14th 1972 at the 84th NDR Jazzworkshop in Studio II, Hannover, Germany Sadly, ballads have gone out of style. Maybe because younger musicians just can't play something that slow. http://syncopatedjustice.com
