    Nice work Macca.

    I think this one is jazz (ish). Acid or nu jazz (or not).

    I don't know, but I though it was worth posting anyway.

    The great Dave Brubeck passed away a few days ago at the ripe old age of 91 (one day before his 92nd birthday). One of the all time great jazz composers.

    Here's Oscar Peterson and Buddy DeFranco with the Gershwin classic 'It Ain't Necessarily So' . Duke Ellington described Peterson as the 'Maharaja of the keyboard' . Oscar does a wonderful job in bringing great feeling to this song. Buddy is equally as good on clarinet

    Hi Guys,

    New to demonland, so be gentle with me ^_^

    I have a love of all things music, and Macca, you have posted a few of my favourites in George Benson and Oscar Peterson. I saw Georgie at the Nice Jazz Festival in 2008, he was simply amazing and Ray Brown (Oscar Peterson's trio), is one of my favourite jazz double bassists of all time.

    Thought I'd start with a gentle one, Blossom Dearie.

    Here's one of my favourite Ronny Jordan tracks . Warms up after at about 1.30 and Ronny's guitar solo from 2.45 to 4.15 is just simply magnificent. This song grows on you like not many others can. Hope you enjoy ...

    I've no idea who plays this song or who or what Lupin III is. But it's a bloody good tune.

    I've been listening to a jazz compilation for most of the day. It's got some great tunes.

    I had a look on youtube but couldn't find many of the songs. So for anyone with spotify, enjoy. And if you don't have spotify yet, it's well worth getting (It's a free app for pcs, but requires a subscription for mobiles)

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
