Togashi/Lacy/Carter - Spiritual Moments - (Paddle Wheel/King Japan)

Inspired by jeffcrom

That's a great album. Myself, I'm going in a different direction tonight - I've moved on from jazz 45s to New Orleans R & B singles:

Lee Dorsey - Get Out of My Life, Woman/So Long (Amy). I recognize composer/producer Allen Toussaint on piano. This record gets all over me.

Jessie Hill - Ooh Poo Pah Doo, parts 1 & 2 (Minit)

Roland Stone - I Can't Help It/Just a Moment (Ace). With all due respect to Bobby Charles, Roland Stone was the best blue-eyed soul singer in New Orleans. He recorded a fabulous CD, Remember Me, not long before he died.

Red Tyler - Snake Eyes/Walk On (Ace). With Allen Toussaint on piano and Mac Rebennack on guitar.

Ernie K-Doe - Mother-In-Law/Wanted: $10,000.00 Reward (Minit)

Aaron Neville - Tell It Like It Is/Why Worry (Parlo). Oh my god, what a great record.

Oliver Morgan - Who Shot the La La/Hold Your Dog (GNP Crescendo). The kind of bizarre, funky record that could only come out of New Orleans. I saw Morgan perform this song at the Rock 'n' Bowl with Snooks Eaglin and Eddie Bo.

L'il Queenie and the Percolaters - My Darlin' New Orleans/Wild Natives (Great Southern). Originally released on Ignant in 1981, this is one of the great New Orleans singles. On my "45 nights," this is often the last record I play before going to bed - usually two or three times.

And I didn't even get into my stash of Johnny Adams, Eddie Bo, and Chuck Carbo 45s.

Hi all,

first post!

1) Donald Byrd - Byrd in Flight Blue Note(blue,white b, no rvg)

2) Hampton Hawes - All Night Session!,Vol.2 Contemporary(C3546 [M]1958)

Another great D.Byrd recording and the vinyl itself is very good sonically.

H.Hawes could swing as hard as any,and the story of the All Nighters is interesting.

Thanks.

Leroy Jenkins - space minds, new worlds, survival of America [Tomato]

I like that one, and I like the instructions to play one side soft and the other side loud.

I felt the need tonight for some music simultaneously intense and relaxing. I immediately thought of what might be my favorite ECM album:

Jack DeJohnette - New Directions, with Bowie, Abercrombie, and Gomez

Tyree Glenn - At The Embers (Forum)

That's a nice one - I've got it with a different cover.

A little while ago: Ornette Coleman - Who's Crazy (Affinity)

Yes, that Glenn album is a really fine one. With Hank Jones on piano as well. Has this ever been reissued in any format?
