JSngry Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Man, this is interesting music that I feel I could never get inside of, no matter how hard I tried. I think I'd want to, too, But unless my brain rewires at some point, it's always going to be the "look at" type love, not the "get in" type. Still, love of any sort is as welcome as it is necessary, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you be more specific as to whom you're asking about? Dallas is no longer an isolated pocket of native tongues...not that it ever was...Houston had a say in the languages as well, as did...ah. never mind? I guess what you really want to find out is if Dallas' African-American tenor players still have that "accent" in their playing, and the answer is, well, a few do, a few more try to, and just as many think they might, and some just don't care about that, they're hustling for the same gigs everybody else is. It's a different world everywhere these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 To be fair, I haven't really been "on the scene" here for years now, but I hear things, and...let's just say.. True everywhere, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there isn't exactly a booming jazz scene here. But I would say that the two best tenor saxophonists in the area that I'm familiar with are Rachella Parks Washington (in Fort Worth) and Shelley Carrol (in Dallas), and both sound like Texas tenors to me (especially Rachella).

JSngry Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I've had the HAT Cd for a while now, but seeing this LP for $3.99 (and in good shape no less!), had to get it as an "object", even if it has the Esoteric/Counterpoint label. That cover photo/design is wondermous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 LP 2 - with brother Tommy, Kenny Burrell, Sonny Clark, et al from October '62 Glorious. Crazy that music from this session sat on the shelf until 1978! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitry Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) Cannonball Adderley - WHY AM I TREATED SO BAD? Picked it up last summer in a garage sale in Bristol,RI. Paid a cool dollar. This was the only jazz album they had. Also bought there what I believe to be a genuine Persian rug, for $3. Anyone knows antique rugs ? It’s an excellent, even, quality album from 1967, wish it were recorded better. CD version has 2 bonus tracks. Haven’t heard them. It still has shrink wrap plastic with a discounted price sticker, cover is hole-punched, the punch hole is inside the plastic, which wasn’t punctured. Hole- punched in the Capitol warehouse, and sold to a discounter, and wrapped later?  Edited April 18, 2020 by Dmitry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Just finished: 80th Anniversary version of Art Blakey - Indestructible. Now playing: David Schnitter - Goliath (Muse) Two things... First, WTF is up with this cover? Am I missing something here? Is he supposed to be praying to his saxophone to help save him from those sheep? Second, why does bass sound so terrible from this short period of time in Jazz? McBee's bass sound is so whiny. It's like a big mosquito buzzing around my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
