Rabshakeh Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 John Lindberg Trio - Give and Take (Black Saint, 1982) Forgot just how meaty and bouncy this one is. For once, it's not just down to George Lewis. A real trio record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the "bop category" of my listening preferences" there is a lot of good McGhee from the late 40´s and I really heard that most of all boppers you could here the roots of Roy Eldridge. And his playing on those legendary Latin Session with Machito is some of the very best trumpet of that time. Otherwise I don´t know almost nothing about his later activities. He might have had a short comeback in the mid 60´s since I have a nice little Sonny Stitt album on Black Lion, titled "Night Work", and I saw him on a video of a Charlie Parker memorial concert with J.J, Johnson, Sonny Stitt, Walter Bishop, Tommy Potter and Klook. But nothing from later. I heard he died in the 80´s and that his son Boots has or had a homepage on which he showed some rare photos of his famous father.

HutchFan Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Arrived in the mail a moment ago: Mongo Santamaria - Dawn (Amanecer) (Vaya, 1977) I just gave the dusty platter a few spins on my record-cleaning machine -- and the music sounds great.

Referring to Howard McGhee: Yes, maybe. I never saw him live. And I don´t know how he might have sounded at that late stage of his often interrupted career. I only noticed, that on the Charlie Parker Memorial on Video (I think it was done in London), which was in the Mid-60´s, he looks a bit worn out, and his chops seem to be a bit "rusty". Nothing left from the incredible fast runs and high notes he did in the 40´s. So I was not really curious to buy those late albums when they were probably around..... The last sign of McGhee I read was a short time after that brief "comeback". It was an announcement in Down Beat, they tried to raise funds for Howard McGhee, who had some vascular problems I think. I don´t know if his son was with him when he died..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 John Tchicai - Cadentia Nova Danica [Polydor, UK 1968] such engrossing music that cuts through the slightly distant live sound. Must have been great to have been in attendance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's even better. Is that so? I will look for it. I became an instant fan. What a tone on the instrument! Fluid sound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how Allen integrates synthesizers with her piano on some of the cuts. Distracting, out-of-place synths on jazz records in the 80's is almost a cliche. But not Allen's. The way that she deploys them is very creative and interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
