wolff Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) Just curious.... Question should read, "Which Hutcherson Blue Note gets the most play? Edited February 21, 2005 by wolff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Oblique. Never understood why it wasn't issued at the time...I think the interplay between Hancock and Hutcherson is otherwordly; highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spontooneous Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Of this batch, "Happenings." But "Oblique" needs to be listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Dialogue!!! Sam Rivers, baby!!! But I am eagerly awaiting the Oblique RVG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Oblique has been my favorite for some time. I didn't think twice about what I got Bobby to autograph for me about four years ago after a gig of his here in KC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Hutcherson with Chick Corea. A pity there were not more collaborations between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I really like all the Blue Notes that I have heard, but my favourite is probably the somewhat neglected 'Patterns'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kari S Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Definitely "Oblique". A great session that needs to be reissued. Of these here, I'd pick "Happenings", although "Total Eclipse" with Corea is also good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibes Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I voted for "Happenings," but seriously, without "Oblique," you might as well delete this poll and start all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ayers Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Oblique! That list isn't fair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I would have voted for Patterns myself....but it isn't on the list... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyJazz Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I love OBLIQUE also but how can you leave out MEDINA which also includes the session SPIRAL? MEDINA contains two great sessions of the Hutcherson quintet that included Harold Land. The list should definitely have been more inclusive. Hell a case could be made for the LIVE AT MONTREUX date that included Woody Shaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 OBLIQUE. Either the CD or the King LP, both get lots of airplay with me. After that its 'Happenings', another great one. The 'Dialogue' and 'Components.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Stick-Up. I reeeeeally like '8/4 Beat'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connoisseur series500 Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I listen to "Happenings" the most. Great go-to-sleep music. I like them all, but I haven't heard "Oblique." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 'Dialogue' was the first I heard and it's the one I return to most often. Still have the BN mono copy! Superb sound, much better than the RVG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sal Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Components -- ain't nothin else like it. And Joe Chambers is da MAN!

Joe Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 PATTERNS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I voted for Stick Up but I've yet to hear Patterns, Oblique, Happenings, or Total Eclipse. I plan on getting them all, Bobby is the man! I'm also a fan of The Kicker and even Montara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:.impossible Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 You know, I just realized that I don't own a copy of Stick Up! I was going to vote for Stick Up! as his most solid album, but went with Happenings because it was the last album that I really listened to over and over again for weeks. I've read that Bobby never made the album that his fans wanted to hear, something that reflected what his live groups were doing at the time. People consider all of his albums to be flawed in one way or another, in that they tend to turn toward the end, or that they have a solid string of good compositions, with a mediocre composition thrown in. I can identify with this sentiment and sometime skip over the HAAG, though sometimes I'm in the mood for it! I like all of his albums for different tracks, etc. Dialogue is excellent all the way through, but probably too avant-garde for many. In that respect, you've got to go with Andrew!!! as well. I recall Stick Up! having a real cohesive sound and think it would be a good candidate for Hutch's classic album. Una Muy Bonita! The Kicker is also a solid candidate. Of course, his CLASSIC album stands as Out To Lunch! That is the one that makes Bobby Hutcherson untouchable. So I voted, but my vote shouldn't count because of my indecisiveness.
