It is indeed Lonnie Johnson, sitting in with McKinney's Cotton Pickers masquerading for another record label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tapscott Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 Could really have picked several from Shelly Manne and His Men, Complete Live at the Black Hawk, but I'll go with "Cabu" by Roland Alexander from Disc 4 - wonderful solos from Richie Kamuca and Joe Gordon. On this and so many of the tracks Manne gets the tempo just right for the soloists to really tell their story. Rhythm section has a great feel. Outstanding stuff all around. P.S. Ira Gitler is mildly critical of Richie Kamuca's playing in his review of Vol 1. (reprinted here). May I say that I think Ira was wrong. Richie was really at the top of his game on this session.

A Lark Ascending Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 A toss up between: 'Spitfires' by Chris Wood - a perfect piece of restrained political song making. or: The slow movement of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21. Back in the 70s this was colonised by the Easy Listening bands - people like James Last. Hearing it this afternoon, distanced from the schmaltz, it sounded gorgeous.

jeffcrom Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra - "Lovable" from 1928, for Bix Beiderbecke's brilliant eight-bar solo. Bix is sometimes hard to appreciate, because so much of his best work appears like gems in a thrash pile - wonderful solos, sometimes very short, on lousy songs, with horrible singers, in dated, overblown settings. But it's worth the effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeBop Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) Bill Evans - Interplay (the album, not just title song) Don't often get to hear Evans really swingin' hard over up-tempo things. Freddie Hubbard really changes the experience from hearing Evans in a trio, which is what I'm accustomed to - Kind of Blue aside. Jim Hall is nice too, but Freddie is FIRE.

jazzbo Posted October 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 "Working on a Building," that old song re-done by Cowboy Junkies for their "Trinity Revisited" cd and dvd set. Great recording/film all around, but there's something really special to my ears about this track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Gus Cannon: "Poor Boy a Long Way from Home" from Memphis Masters (Yazoo) Beautiful slide banjo That entire session is amazing - even though it was recorded 1927, it seems to reflect what was going on in African-American music in the 1890s: slide banjo, picked banjo blues, banjo ragtime, and what (unfortunately) used to be called "coon songs." Amazing stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) Hugh Ragin; Golf Coast Groove from Feel The Sushine on Justin Time. But it could have been almost any track. Ragin has a lovely tone and a great command of the instrument. It's about time he poduced something new.
