sidewinder Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Wasn't there a Tom Wilson connection with Audio Fidelity? (thinking here of the Walt Dickerson sessions that were on that label). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Jane Ira Bloom - Slalom (Columbia) What do you think of this one? Good; not great. Where I'm coming from - I have exactly two Jane Ira Bloom albums, this one and a more recent one, plus scattered tracks here and there. She's someone I want to like more than I do, if that makes sense. I'm not sure what it is, but I can't get into her music that much. That being said, I've enjoyed this album since I bought it - more than anything else I've heard by her. I do think that her use of electronics is organic, and works better than most such attempts.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Next up: JJ Johnson - J Is For Jazz (Columbia). Nice mono 6 eye record I found in a used bin for $4. I like this Columbia stuff. I should pull out that Mosaic box again. Jane Ira Bloom - Slalom (Columbia) What do you think of this one? Good; not great.

I probably like this a bit more than you but you're right, it's not great. Now "The Red Quartets" on Arabesque, that's great. Never on vinyl though.

I have SLALOM as well, and I guess I would sum it up by saying, it is better than I expected, but not as good as I would have liked. Thanks for both your thoughts; seems there is something of a consensus on this one. A long way from ESP-Disk, but its peculiarities kept me listening. Avant muzak? EDITED because I decided to give this album another listen. It still is a bit too sweet or soft for me, but I liked it more on 2nd listen, and there is a nice feeling of peace throughout the music. First rate musicians here too. Edited December 3, 2013 by Leeway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Al Cohn - No Problem (Muse). This is a nice date, if not a bit predictable. Barry Harris plays his usual stuff, which is very good, but also quite a bit predictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
