jazzbo Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) John Coltrane "Kulu Se Mama" Impulse Japan UHQCD Obviously I wanted more cowbell. As time goes by it occurs to me that this album is sort of a hidden influential time machine in the Coltrane catalog. The large ensemble pieces seem like a window into the 'seventies. I honestly could be convinced that Miles Davis listened to this intently and it shaped his electric period. And even the other numbers could conceivably have inspired explorations like "Go Ahead John" and "Lonely Fire" and '73 to '75 concerts, and perhaps even the mic'ing and mixing and collage of Miles and Teo Macero. Certainly there was a lot of "spiritual jazz" of the next decade that sprang from this soil. A case could perhaps be made that this album is another reason John Coltrane cast such a huge and long shadow. This new mastering is very good. Certainly I have never heard this sound this good.

Justin V Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 A really strong jazz-funk date. Ray studied at Rutgers with Kenny Barron, Ted Dunbar and Ralph Bowen and was based in New York when he recorded this debut. He was living in Las Vegas when he was hit and killed by a train during a photo shoot for his planned second album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub Modal Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 17 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Darius Jones Trio - Big Gurl (Smell My Dream) (AUM Fidelity, 2011) It's not my favourite of Hutcherson's performances, and his playing does colour the album as a whole, I guess. Hubbard seemed to get everywhere at that point, including places that he probably could have stayed out of. But I think he's good here, certainly compared to the lost soul on some other records from the period. VSOP - The Quintet (Columbia, 1977). This album's a bit like a school reunion. Everyone is a bit heavier and balder, but you quickly remember why you were friends originally. Wayne in particular seems to be relishing his day out away from the family. I've actually never spent any time with any VSOP albums. No reason other than they've never popped up on my radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 Freddie Hubbard "Gleam" Sony/BGO I totally missed this one in the day, and am glad to have this two cd set now. I appreciate Freddie Hubbard more and more as time goes on. He's gone from "okay" to "wow" in my vocabulary, it took me a while to appreciate him fully.

NP: Max Roach - Deeds, Not Words (Riverside/OJC) On a Booker Little kick over the last few days. Gone at 23 years old. Ugh. Just think of all the things he could've done.

No reason other than they've never popped up on my radar. I listen to this first Live one every so often. Obviously it’s a rehash of what went before, but Herbie is more confident and Wayne is on another journey by this point. Downsides are Ron Carter’s awful bass sound and Freddie Hubbard not being in his prime. In the Late 70s rechauffee stakes I’d probably pick Old and New Dreams as my choice long before VSOP, but It’s worth it every so often.

HutchFan Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Echoes of the The Birth of the Cool sonorities. Max and Draper's tuba, I suppose. But the arrangements & compositions too. Edited October 29, 2020 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
