Thanks for the positive comment. I'm always surprised (though pleasantly) when someone else knows and likes some of the music I listen to.

The problem for me is, when it comes to jazz, this only happens online.

Really appreciate your varied taste in music -  somehow quite often mirroring mine ....

Good to hear. I wish I had your breadth of knowledge and taste in classical music.

Same here.

I second the first sentiment here (the second only for the occasional Jazz title)

I'm often intrigued by the titles posted and seconded by you both, especially, but not only, the music from Africa of which I have a small smattering most usually of the more famous and obviously commercial names. So to see these LPs is a delight. I've so far resisted chasing any down but today's Kora (?) duet may have to be the first exception to that rule.

now listening to this because it was posted elsewhere on the board  today

Just found a reasonably priced copy and ordered it. Very much looking forward to listening to it

Junior Mance———Truckin’ and Trakin’———-(Beehive)

 

Grooves in the manner of a snail on diazepam. Engineer Mal Addey partly responsible for the dead sound. There’s a good recording trying to get out but you can’t escape the thought that they were Truckin’ this one straight to the morgue. No ones finest 36mins.

You mean that "Trakin' " should actually read Treaclin' ?  ;)

Debussy:  La Mer, Iberia - Paul Paray & Detroit Symphony - Mercury Living Presence (stereo)

.... Paray takes some passages of La Mer faster than I've heard them elsewhere. 

(IMO) detracting a bit of the composition's magic ....

Agreed, but other passages are really beautiful, and I hear some colors more clearly in places than in other versions.

Now playing:

Berg, Shoenberg, Webern - Ormandy & Philadelphia Orch - Columbia (mono)

A 12-tone extravaganza, featuring a 33-minute suite from Lulu!

Is that the same Phil Moore who was making records in the 1950s, including the amazing Portrait of Leda?

I don't know. I just have this album, not the album you reference. This one has arrangements by Gil Fuller, features a vocalist named Leni Groves and a band including Moore on piano and organ, Hadley Caliman on tenor sax and flute, Joe Pass on guitar, Joe Comfort on bass, Francisco Aquabella on congas, and Clarence Johnson on drums.
