mjzee Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 The Capitol Adderleys have been shamefully neglected on CD. Max Roach +4 = Newport (deep groove Mercury). I still can't get into Draper's tuba solos. They just don't sound... musical? One album-note writer put it nicely - it was early days for jazz tuba. I think it's like seeing an elephant dancing - it's not that it's dancing gracefully, but you're supposed to admire that it's dancing at all.

jeffcrom Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Rampart Street Paraders - Dixieland, My Dixieland (Columbia 6-eye mono). Okay, I already feel defensive about posting that I'm listening to this 1954 dollar-bin find. But it's pretty good. I bought it because among the personnel are two of my favorite dixieland/swing musicians: Eddie Miller and George Van Eps, and I knew that the others were solid players. And the album is solid mainstream/dixieland, and occasionally more than that. A dollar well spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 This morning Buddy Johnson - Go ahead and rock - Roulette Buddy's last album, a couple of years before he died. Mosty re-recordings of his earlier material but some new gems. Recent posting here reminded me I hadn't listened to this in a good while The Jack Wilson Quartet - Atlantic (Discovery) MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice sound too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice sound too. Indeed it is - and I had no idea. That looks like a good set, although I have much of the material on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Lou Donaldson - Signifyin' (Argo mono, rather than the stereo version shown here). What a band! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 George Shearing - Satin Affair (Capitol mono). I should be in bed, but I'm still high after the gig. Desmond Egan was in the audience and apparently really enjoyed it - particularly, he said, our version of Ornette's "Mob Job." So I'm listening to this wonderful, corny album from the dollar bin - Shearing and Co. with string arrangements by Billy May. It sounds pretty good in the wee hours of the morning.

jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Gene Krupa - Transcribed (IAJRC). 1946 Capitol radio transcriptions. I've always liked the post-war Krupa band. Lots of Red Rodney here, and some Gerry Mulligan charts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 This afternoon Cootie Williams - Original Hit recordings 1944 - Hit (Phoenix) A wonderful set with a fantastic band including Jaws, Cleanhead & Bud Powell - and the original version of 'Round midnight'.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Dave Brubeck - Re-union (Fantasy). Nice red vinyl pressing. OK music but certainly not all that adventurous. The red vinyl makes it tough to tell that the pressing's a bit beat up but not too bad. I wonder if this is why they did this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Miles Davis - My Funny Valentine (Columbia) Two eye mono. Nice sounding pressing. I still think the latest CD sounds better but I got this for a good price so I thought I'd see what it sounded like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hollywood Saxophone Quartet - Warm Winds (Liberty). Almost put this in the classical thread - one side is Spud Murphy's suite Warm Winds; the other side is Jack Marshall's Gold Rush Suite.
