O jantar do Garibaldi

Fui jantar na casa do Garibaldi (ele nos queria apresentar, a mim e a alguns colegas do clube das terças, uma garota chamada Ana Tibiriçá). Quando lá cheguei o circo já estava armado e, pelo jeito, o romance, se acontecer, será atribulado. Ana educadamente levou um disco e uma garrafa de vinho (rápida e devidamente degustada). Quanto ao disco, aí houve o primeiro desencontro. Quando eu entrei na sala ouvi Garibaldi dizer, em tom pouco amistoso, mas ainda contido, "isso é música de elevador". Como todo o clube acha que Garibaldi precisa urgentemente (para melhorar seu humor) arranjar uma namorada, todos saíram em defesa da moça e de Carla Bley (uma defesa tácita, já que a maioria também concorda com o nosso casmurro colega). O disco era o de título apropriado para a ocasião, Music Dinner, gravado em 1976, e que contém alguns temas conhecidos: Sing Me Softly Of The Blues e Ida Lupino. Eu, pessoalmente, achei um disco divertido, mas ele não tem aquela sonoridade clássica do jazz. No entanto, os arranjos são bastante interessantes. A formação da banda que a acompanha inclui sax, trombone, trompete e tuba, além dos básicos baixo, bateria, piano e guitarra. Creio que a preocupação de Carla era justamente mesclar alguns elementos do jazz com o pop (para mim, o tema mais jazzístico é a quinta faixa, intitulada Song Sung Long) e produzir, no máximo, um disco de smooth jazz. Essa impressão é corroborada pela presença de músicos marcadamente pops como, por exemplo, o guitarrista Eric Gale, que, aliás, tem um timbre (que eu curto muito) que você pode identificar em alguns discos de Joe Cocker. O disco é leve e creio que não causará indigestão em ninguém. Vocês poderão ouvir o tema mais popular da Carla - Sing me softly of the blues - ali no Gramophone by Salsa.
PS - Esse texto foi publicado originalmente no www.contraovento.blogger.com.br, do jornalista aposentado e botequeiro militante Acir Vidal, há mais de dois anos. Para desgosto de todos os membros do Clube das Terças, o namoro de Garibaldi naufragou após aquele jantar.

Estava no Loronix, dando uma geral, depois de me frustrar correndo atrás da trilha do Summer of 42 (o meu LP está longe de casa), quando achei esse blog com um nome sugestivo. Como Zeca não coloca besteiras, resolvi dar uma olhada. Sem grandes pretensões. Qual foi a minha surpresa em encontrar uma página alegre, cheia de bom humor e, principalmente, muita informação. Li essa página inteira. Voltarei a me deliciar com os demais posts mais tarde. A descrição da passagem pelo Harlem é muito legal. Serve de roteiro para muitos. E lembrar da Ada Rovatti... Conheci por um amigo que me prometeu uma cópia do seu CD. Até hoje. Estou feliz de ter passado por aqui.

E viva o roquenrou de Carla Bley. Um som pra cima, distante do som intelectualizado que infesta o jazz contemporâneo.

Polarising filters are a must-have accessory for any
landscape photographer. Red lights can be tricky but can be made to look
good if you're careful. Well Canon, hate to say it, but most amateurs don't like to haul around an external flash unit.

Its screen is also a little bit larger than the HTC One's (they're about equally sharp), it has a
micro - SD slot for expandable memory, and it'll be available on Verizon -- the HTC One will not. The Samsung Galaxy S3 is, to begin with a LTE network compatible smartphone handset that is capable of handling speeds in the range of 30 to 60 mega bytes per second.

The different models of phones, while all capable of making calls, actually
have very different features and capabilities for many
different uses. Interestingly, the rise in sales of smartphones will come at the expense of
declining cell phone sales, currently 90% of the market.
Moreover, it has been observed that Apple's i - Phone apps access personal data without asking user's permission the way it should be.

There are Blu-ray home theater systems which have the
capability to stream Netflix, Pandora, You - Tube,

technology that basically gives you the option to not have to pay

mass-marketplace machine, but its sales numbers display that even in the reasonably
small industry, Apple dominates the levels of competition.
