LUCKY_THOMPSON_DANCING%2BSUNBEAM-676023.

Lucky Thompson - Dancing Sunbeam (ABC-Impulse, 2 LPs)
1956 trio and quintet sides with Oscar Pettiford, later issued on CD by GRP-Impulse as Tricotism

Superb music and excellent-sounding vinyl. :D

 

Remember this one coming out - almost by stealth. Probably paid for byprofits from John Handy ‘Hard Work’?  Will dig out the 2LP set.

Just now - Atlantic black label:

Dudu Pukwana - In the Townships (Earthworks/Virgin, rec. 1973)
with Mongezi Feza, Biso Mngqikana, Harry Miller, and Louis Moholo

Anyone know who plays piano on this record? No one is credited, even though there's a piano player throughout. I know that Pukwana started as a pianist, so it would plausible for him to have played the piano.  But that would have required over-dubbing -- and the music doesn't sound over-dubbed; it's VERY live-sounding (and fantastic!).  Makes me wonder if the pianist is Chris McGregor.  I suppose he could have been prevented from being credited/named for contractual reasons.

Just wondering.

Reviews of that album mention some overdubbing and Pukwana on piano as well as saxophones.

Came out originally on the ‘Caroline’ subsidiary in Virgin’s early days, when they were a bit more adventurous with jazz releases.

Ah, so it was him!  Very good.
