NOTICE / AVISO

 


As many of you may have noticed apart from the Ulozto problem the main Mega account has been suspended, therefore the blog will be temporarily down until we can restructure and normalise the blog. I appreciate all the support you have shown me. Thank you for your understanding.

Como muchos habrán notado aparte del problema de Ulozto la cuenta principal Mega ha sido suspendida, por consiguiente el blog se verá disminuido temporalmente hasta poder reestructurar y normalizar el blog. Agradezco todas las muestras de apoyo que me han brindado. Gracias por comprender.

Jimmy Ponder • Something To Ponder



Reviews:
This is one of those something-for-everybody CDs (e.g., a blues, some ballads and standards) that succeeds on every count. Guitarist Ponder's playing is a real treat for the head and heart and his rhythm section digs in with just the right amount of passion. Pianist Mark Soskins gently sways the Buddy Johnson hit, "Since I Fell for You" (which seems to be getting a lot of well-deserved attention lately) and swings "Satin Doll". Bassist Peter Washington and drummer Roger Humphrey provide solid and unobtrusive support throughout this seven-track disc. Among the selections are a gorgeously relaxed "Moonlight in Vermont" (shades of Johnny Smith) and a super uptempo "Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise". ~ Miles Jordan, JazzTimes. https://jazztimes.com/reviews/albums/jimmy-ponder-something-to-ponder/
