Chico Hamilton--El Exigente (The Demanding One) (Flying Dutchman)

Do the notes say whether the title track is by Harold Ousley?

MG

No liner notes on this Bob Thiele produced live recording--it doesn't even say where it was recorded, only copyright 1970.

Band is Arnie Lawrence on electric sax, Steve Swallow on bass and Bob Mann on guitar.

To respond to your question, there is no tune called El Exigente on the album, making the title a bit puzzling.

On first listen, the songs are appealing, Hamilton and the rhythm section sound very good, but Arnie Lawrence plays the most strident electric sax I've heard. I'm hoping he sounds better on second listen (or I'm more receptive), because the first time around he mostly ruined the recording.

Peter Warren - Bass Is - (Enja German orig)

cool LP, one side a bass quartet with Dave Holland, Glen Moore and Jaime Faunt, the other side adding Barry Altschul, Stu Martin and Steve Hauss on drums, John Surman on baritone and Chick Corea on piano clusters/guts.

I had a nice little session last night with the following:

Live at Sweet Basil vol.1 Abdullah Ibrahim w/Carlos Ward (Blackhawk)

Mine's on Ekapa... never saw a Vol.2 of this one, strangely.

Nor have I. I strongly suspect there wasn't one.

MG

My copy says Ekapa/Blackhawk. Does your copy have Blackhawk on the label too? If not, I wonder if mine is a reissue on the Blackhawk label. I've never seen a vol.2 either.

Er (blush) mine was taped off the local library copy, which was Ekapa 004. Goodness knows how they got an original over here...
