J.A.W. Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 (edited) Jeez. . . looks like he's become one of those ignorant zenophobic right wing repub wingnuts. Don't look for an apology. Just look away. I don't think this xenophobic and insulting crap should be tolerated here. Edited July 30, 2006 by J.A.W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 I don't think so either. Jim warned him on the other thread. I believe that it's good of him to warn him and I also believe he will follow through on the next instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kh1958 Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 I did alot of listening over the last day and a half and found the following sale CDs to be quite compelling: The Walter Bishop, Jr. Trio, 1965--with Butch Warren and either Jimmy Cobb or Granville Hogan. Curiously, it was recorded in 1962 and 1963. Walt Dickerson--A Sense of Direction--his second album, from 1961. Charles McPherson--From This Moment On--1968 recording, with Pat Martino and Cedar Walton. Lem Winchester--Lem's Beat--1960 recording, with Oliver Nelson. Elmo Hope--Hope Meets Foster--1955, with Frank Foster. George Wallington--Jazz for the Carriage Trade--1956 with Donald Byrd and Phil Woods.

Hello kh, Glad to hear that Walter Bishop, Jr. is not a total dud. I was a little worried about that one. I missed the Winchester and the McPherson. Don't know what I was thinking! Have the others but havn't gotten to them yet. I have been enjoying the Jazz in Hollywood stuff. This is West Coast Jazz in its purest sense.

The Walter Bishop is a good one, performed by a working group. The liner notes indicate this was his first record as a leader of a trio. The selections are all around three minutes in length.

connoisseur series500 Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 Will there be complaints about his removal were it to occur? Bertrand. Who supports him? Deep leavened his insults with humor. This guy just rants. Nobody will miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 Be glad we're not all so consistent. I thought you were an a+ jerk for a long time the way you were running around calling Norah Jones "a talentless hack" in a series of tirades. I changed my mind about you over time.

connoisseur series500 Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 We should always give people a chance. Banning is anti-American. Whether you liked DEEP or not, he did contribute some knowledge and humor. Aric? Well, I'm with you on that one. (But others might disagree with me.) Wolff needs a one-way ticket out of here.

bluesbro Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 I have to say I own a bunch of Ellington, including the massive RCA box, but I never got around to owning 'The Ellington Suites' until I got the K2 from the Concord sale last week. Oh my! This is a monster. It is already one of my top Ellington's, all time. This one should be recommended right along with "far east suite', 'and his mother called him bill' and 'such sweet thunder'. I havent been able to listen to the rest of my concord order, because I have already listened 5 or 6 times to this puppy and I am not tired yet.

A group of us guys wore out Side 1, "The Queen's Suite", on our vinyl copy at our jazz loving apartment in college in the 1970s. I especially love 'Sunset and the Mockingbird' and 'Single Petal of a Rose.' I am glad that you found this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.D. Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) I'm glad I ordered that as part of my second order! I'm looking forward to hearing it. Ditto (another second order customer). The AMG review was lukewarm at best, but I decided to disregard it. Edited July 31, 2006 by T.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 I'm glad I ordered that as part of my second order! I'm looking forward to hearing it. Me too--in my second order. Aye, me too for my 2nd order. Oof! After hearing some of the other K2 upgrades, I thought to myself how on earth could I have not upgraded those wonderful Ellington suites the first time around. Another 6 or 7 K2 upgrades (same as last order) along with a lot of new stuff, such as the Jazz in Hollywoods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I'll add my two cents that The Ellington Suites is an excellent album. Having purchased both the original LP when it was issued and acquiring the CD as well, I think any Ellington fan ought to buy it. My Concord Sale order showed up Saturday while I was in New Orleans.

marcello Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 My God didn't Ellington have a lot of class! He records the Queen Suite, has copies printed only for the her, and doesn't let it be released during his lifetime. That music is amazing!

Stefan Wood Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Listened to both Jon Eardley cds. Recommended if you like that mid 50's bop sound - the one with Phil Woods and Zoot Sims is very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 (edited) This one is already endearing itself to me big time. She has a great voice and the backing group includes Ken McIntyre and Jaki Byard. Recommended ! Wonder what happened to Honi Gordon? (after the 'Mingus Moves' recordings - the most recent I know of hers). Edited August 8, 2006 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
