Big Wheel Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 How are these albums? Do they live up to the reputations of the august personnel (Newborn, John Simmons, Roy Haynes)? If so, seems like they would be prime candidates for a reissue from Blue Note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 I mentioned these on another Newborn thread. I had a UK issue twofer years ago and didn't care for it that much so I disposed of it fairly quickly. The pressing quality wasn't that good anyway. Lord says that all the tiltles are on one tOCJ. I certainly like to hear this music again now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitry Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 PIANO PORTRAITS is his strongest Roulette Lp, imo. Don't know if it's on cd or not, but the material and playing are first rate[and beyond]. Blues For Left Hand Only is a virtuoso piece, if there ever was one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
