Video Verunky

Hi all again,
so since my uploaded video on Youtube has been muted (copyright issue of used background music), I am trying to upload it at least here at my own blog for few of you to see how the music works with the video, because this video without the used music is not even worth watching. I know I told you I am not going to bore you with my family stories, but please bear with me this time. Hope you enjoy it.

Few day's ago, I have discovered a beauty of B3 organ music and artists like Jimmy Smith and Booker T. Jones. I am from then listening to a lot of this kind of music (mixture of jazz & blues) and through this I find easier to understand more of jazz. That's actually one thing that I am constantly trying for a long time without success. It has always been sort of a "forbidden zone" for me. Little too messy for my taste. However, B3 showed me the "back door" I could sneak through and get a taste of what this jazz is all about. I know it is a wide topic and I am sure I will get back to it soon in the future, but I wanted to start this blogg with something actual. Something what is really happening in my life from one day to another. I am not going to bore you with my daily troubles with work nor my family, but music, that's something different. This blogg will be mostly about music. Either mine or my recent "discoveries" in various genres.

So speaking about B3 organ....check the links below, where you can find more info about B3 instrument and the two artists I am listening at the moment. And leave a comment if you wish about your own discoveries on this music.
