Jam session - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jam sessions, however, are generally for the benefit of the performers and not part of a public performance. Jam sessions are often used to develop new material, find suitable arrangements, or simply as a social gathering and communal practice session. Jam sessions may be based upon existing songs or forms, may be loosely based on an agreed chord progression or chart suggested by one participant, or may be wholly improvisational. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Jam_session   (519 words)

Celtic Jam and Session Etiquette and Other Information A Ceili differs notably from a jam or session in that it is intended to accompany dancing (some people will use the term "ceili" to mean a jam/session, or even just any party or get-together where music is played, so ask if you're not sure). Jams, Sessions and Ceilis all share one thing in common - they are not a solo performance. It's a session for all the singers and quiet instruments, where they can be heard, without having to compete with numerous loud instruments all played at breakneck speed. www.celticharper.com /jamsession.html   (1756 words)

Jam Session Etiquette - Voyager Recordings and Publications: Old Time Fiddle Music However, there's more to it than that: different kinds of music have their own expectations as to what the proper behavior is in a jam session, and you have to know what type of jam session you are getting into. Bluegrass jams usually involve lots of songs as well as instrumentals, and there may not be enough instrumental breaks between the verses of the song to give each instrumentalist a solo. In a Texas fiddle jam one fiddler often plays a tune through as long as he or she wants, and then turns it over to another fiddler who does the same thing. www.voyagerrecords.com /arjam.htm   (605 words)

CHARLIE PARKER / JAM SESSION Jam Sessions is one of the notable exceptions.

Amazon.com: Jam Session: Music: Charlie Parker   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) "Jam Session" is the only album I've heard that presents Charlie Parker in familiar company with room to stretch out and with microphones capable of capturing the moment with the versimilitude expected by today's listeners. The ballad medley is excellent as each player gets a song to show their stuff on, but the biggest reasons to buy this disc are the songs "Jam Blues" and "Funky Blues" which are really just extended jam sessions where all the players really get to stretch out. From photos unearthed in the early 1990s and published in France in 1995, it's clear that Bird was a co-leader of this session as well as on equal footing with the entire group. www.amazon.com /Jam-Session-Charlie-Parker/dp/B000004768   (1503 words)

[No title] Cut two, "Phlagan's Flow," opens with a grunge guitar -- it could be a session of any garage metal band -- and then suddenly the clear Keaggy lick breaks out of the background. This song has the feel of a jam session in a typical musician's lair. At about three minutes into the song, Keaggy pulls out his signature sound, created from plucking the strings and pulling the volume up and down with his pinky, giving the guitar the sound of an electric violin. www.cbn.com /cbnmusic/reviews/cvb_PhilKeaggy_Jammed.aspx   (997 words)

Buck Clayton : Jam Session - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) However, he had long been a talented arranger, and he began to emerge from his involuntary retirement (at least as a writer) by the early 1970s. Hank O'Neal of Chiaroscuro Records suggested that Clayton organize and write for some jam sessions that would be in the same spirit as his legendary jams of the mid-'50s. The 1974 jam, reissued on this CD, features such major individualists as pianist Earl Hines (who emerges as the top star), trumpeters Doc Cheatham and Joe Newman, trombonist Urbie Green, altoist Earle Warren, tenors Zoot Sims and Budd Johnson, baritonist Joe Temperley (subbing for an ailing Harry Carney), bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Gus Johnson. www.artistdirect.com /nad/store/artist/album/0,,65955,00.html   (271 words)

Guitar Jam Session - Home   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) And though producer Rick Rubin had become a trusted friend, the Man in Black wasn't around to approve or disapprove, let alone guide, the final sessions. With Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench and slide guitar session pro Smokey Hormel on board (all three of whom appear on earlier Cash albums), along with guitarists Matt Sweeney and Johnny Polansky, the sound is stately and acoustic, but rarely staid, even as the dynamics of earlier recordings in the series are absent. Instead, the songs have a measured, elegiac intensity, the sound of musicians choosing their notes carefully and making just the right choices. www.guitarjamsession.com   (528 words)
