This jazz piano is much nicer than the song with karol g. Personal opinion.  Cool story with your moniker.

Ah Ah, a man after my heart, you like Mccoy Tyner and Mulgrew Miller you have exceptionally good tastes!

They are different music, those jazz pianists tuned into some elaborate astral vibrations and patterns that are translated into the sounds of western harmonies, the effect they have on my brain is uplifting and stimulating at the same time.

KarolG in that song caters to more basic, earthly vibrations, in a relatively good taste, the result is funny in a way.

Growing up, I loved carbon based lifeforms.

The thing I really like about this mans inspiration story is- no matter what's going on around you, or what life throws at you- a little Love goes such a long way... Literally nothing is holding this man back- his Spirit is the mountain.

I can see you go for the progressive type music. I think the closest affinity we have to music is ‘Yes’. I saw them perform numerous times in the day. They were seriously 😳 from another planet. Music like ‘Topographic Oceans’ was inspired by the ‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ and the Moody Blues also had a lot of spiritual oriented, uplifting music. Their ‘seventh sojourn’ album with Michael Pinder still in the band was something to inspire musicians. I have been told that the music I channel has hints of Yes. Have you played instruments yourself? We all have our inspirations from other musicians. Those two bands really inspired me spiritually. Justin Hayward has a humility about him that is quite a departure from most famous musicians.

Yet there was music like the Revolver album (Beatles) and Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys which also had some real uplifting and life changing moments that synchronized, with moments of my life, in their music as well.

Good foray of Charlie Mariano into Eastern music, I didn't know the Bangalore album.
So far my favourite piece of Indian (carnatic) music from a jazz musician is the 'killer' tune from the Samdhi (twilight) album by Rudresh Mahantappa, a New-York based alto saxophonist. The music is not easy, so far I could not discern the tempo, not a traditional western 4/4 or 3/4 or 9/8, must some crazy uneven tempo, I suspect from the bass line it would be may possible to figure it out.

Ah, yes, thanks for the link. I was forgetting about that meaning: Samdhi, the transition between two Yugas. In a way, we are still in the Samdhi between Kali and Dwapara, at least as far as social conditions are concerned. Not the whole world has fully transitioned.

My favorite Jethro Tull album; Songs from the Wood. I also play flute. Thanks for all the information on your background! I commented on it here;

This is a a very easy jazz album from an African pianist, Nduduzo Makhatini, everyone should like it for its simplicity. I discovered it recently.

This song has hit number 1 in the iTunes store and the artist who turned down an 8 million offer explains why:

People in the music industry give me blank stares when I brush off 8 million dollar offers. I don’t want 6 tour buses, 15 tractor trailers and a jet. I don’t want to play stadium shows, I don’t want to be in the spotlight. I wrote the music I wrote because I was suffering with mental health and depression. These songs have connected with millions of people on such a deep level because they’re being sung by someone feeling the words in the very moment they were being sung. No editing, no agent, no bullshit. Just some idiot and his guitar. The style of music that we should have never gotten away from in the first place.

...There’s nothing special about me. I’m not a good musician, I’m not a very good person. I’ve spent the last 5 years struggling with mental health and using alcohol to drown it. I am sad to see the world in the state it’s in, with everyone fighting with each other. I have spent many nights feeling hopeless, that the greatest country on Earth is quickly fading away.

That being said, I HATE the way the Internet has divided all of us. The Internet is a parasite, that infects the minds of humans and has their way with them. Hours wasted, goals forgotten, loved ones sitting in houses with each other distracted all day by technology made by the hands of other poor souls in sweat shops in a foreign land.

When is enough, enough? When are we going to fight for what is right again? MILLIONS have died protecting the liberties we have. Freedom of speech is such a precious gift. Never in world history has the world had the freedom it currently does. Don’t let them take it away from you.

Guys, if you have by chance clicked on the previous youtube video I posted, you may have guessed I was messing with you, and that's right. I couldn't resist.

That's obviously pretty elaborated contemporary jazz music. I found it nice, hinting at the supernatural.

This other one is a prayer, simpler than the previous, definitely.
