Hints of ‘Speak Like A Child’, interestingly. Often wondered about that one, such an interesting line up. I like the sound of those hints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) I like it ! Herbie produces some lovely lyrical solos and with that lineup, how can you go wrong. Apparently it was an ad-hoc session at Union scale, with Herbie getting twice scale as ‘musical director’. The arrangements were by teenager Jonathan Klein, who plays french horn and baritone sax (!) on the session. Just another routine session for Herbie and co but a quiet gem nevertheless. Both Ron Carter and Herbie have expressed very positive recollections over it. Jonathan Klein apparently hates it. The original US release was only sold in synogogues and sold just a couple of hundred copies apparently. Trunk’s LP version was said to be 500 but I’m not sure if that many were actually sold. A ‘curate’s egg’ (or should I say, Rabbi’s egg) - but an enjoyable and fascinating one. The Trunk LP is a needle drop from one of the rare originals but is excellently done. The master tapes are AWOL. Edited August 4, 2018 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 John Coltrane - Ascension [HMV UK, mono] Replacement for my slightly tired Jasmine pressing I can still remember hearing this for the first time in the first years of my Jazz listening and being scared witless Needless to say a different reaction today although how the neighbours are reacting could be similar On 03/08/2018 at 6:37 PM, sidewinder said: Interesting - one I didn’t know about, put out by EMI India originally I guess Yes. on EMI India. It's on spotify if you want to sample. I think it's a great album, less Indo-Jazz fusion, a la Mayer etc, than Indian musicians (some of whom are Jazz players) playing Jazz, to my ears at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Thanks, I’ll check it on Spotify. NY USA DG mono version. Still the fave (and not interested in the 122 bit super nano bit mapped gold plated CD) . Edited August 5, 2018 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Love the cover, and the music too, although the cover reveals its charms significantly more immediately. But post-Apple MJQ has more differences from pre-Apple MJQ than might be apparent from a non-invested listening. If nothing else, the new recording technology allowed Percy ?Heath to prominate in the mix, and that sorta changes everything if you want it to.
