Homefromtheforest Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 "Zyatshi" would be a most welcome reissue; I wonder if anyone has heard or knows about these tapes??? Imagine only those close to the source... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmce Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Stopped in at a Salvation Army and turned up a Bud Freeman 10" on Allegro. Pretty beat up, but I'll give it a spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homefromtheforest Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Jeff Clyne/Ian Carr 4tet "Springboard" (polydor, UK). Man I've forgotten how awesome this album is...and so interesting to hear different versions of tunes that appear on the Rendell/Carr group albums...

clifford_thornton Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 yeah that's a good one. I asked MD about reissuing it and his opinion was "meh." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Zbigniew Namyslowski/ Karin Krog----------Jazz Jamboree '75 Vol.2---------(Muza) Recorded October 1975 in Warsaw. Krog is only on one side (2 originals and 2 Gershwins) , the other side has a long tango like piece for quintet. Both interesting sides, well recorded but not the greatest pressing.

colinmce Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Stopped in at a Salvation Army and turned up a Bud Freeman 10" on Allegro. Pretty beat up, but I'll give it a spin. Good side, the highlight of which is "The Atomic Age", a brilliant duet with Ray McKinley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homefromtheforest Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) "Eastern Sounds" is a lovely record. I had that same Fontana mono issue but sold it because it was no better then my late 60s prestige issue. One day I'd love to hear the original USA Moodsville issue to see if it sounds any better.

mjazzg Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) Just arrived direct from ECM Germany yesterday.. Any good? I like Eick's leader dates but at the same time have a sneaking doubt that a narrow furrow is being ploughed with them - danger of diminishing returns. I see there's a violinist added this time but the ECM site clip didn't really suggest there's a major departure in sound.

You must have had a duff copy I guess. Just given this one a re-spin to check and no complaints here. It looks essentially unplayed and I think came from the archive of 'Gramophone' magazine, probably a major plus factor. No doubt 90% of the copies that made it this far have sadly been hammered to death on record changers and sonically oliterated by styli like knitting needles !

My copy was super clean; I'm not saying it didn't sound good...just that it was not an improvement on my later USA prestige issue. Yeah I hear you...it's getting tough to find clean old jazz albums that do not have groove distortion, etc. Just arrived direct from ECM Germany yesterday.. Any good? I like Eick's leader dates but at the same time have a sneaking doubt that a narrow furrow is being ploughed with them - danger of diminishing returns. I see there's a violinist added this time but the ECM site clip didn't really suggest there's a major departure in sound. I really like it; bit less "melodic" then "skala" but I can tell this will be a grower. I'm a big fan of Eick's albums on ECM though so you are getting a biased opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll call it informed opinion .......the 'little less "melodic"' probably makes it a 'yes' for me Have you seen him live at all? I've only done so with Haarla's 'Northbound' band, I keep missing Jaga Jazzist and I'm not sure he's played leader dates here yet. I'd like to hear him stretch out a bit on some of this ECM material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
