      What vinyl are you spinning right now??

      By jazzbo · Posted

      Moving from one silly odd recording to (IMO) another. Sun Ra: Space Is The Place (Music From The Original Soundtrack) 4 disc set (2 cds, DVD, Blu-ray) cd 2 I bought this set when released and have hardly listened to it. My interest in Sun Ra has waned though I have continuing collecting. . . which is silly. . . sound here is certainly improved on what was released before. One of these days I need to watch the American Masters on Sun Ra, and re-watch “Space is the Place.”

      So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

      By jazzbo · Posted

      It seems odd still to wake up and it’s warmer. Decided to start the day with a favorite. Discussing this album elsewhere led me to locate it on the shelves and replay it. I think it’s masterful. Slim at the height of his powers as an instrumentalist and of course as a vocalist. The personality and the verve of this music makes me glad to be awake and alive and attentive. “How High th Moon” is amazing here. I found myself imagining a nice big bowl of potato salad. Slim Gaillard “Rides Again” Dot/Verve cd

      That session of 16 March 1956 (Captain Jetter/Nuzzolese Blues, etc) is very nice indeed. Pulled it out the other day during a "U.S. visitors to France" moment.  The session recorded the day before for the Club Francais du Disque (I Found A New Baby/Charlie Was in Rouen/Crazy Rhythm/Charlie Went To Cherbourg) is also worth a listen. I now see I discussed it briefly with King Ubu in this thread in 2007 (19 years on now ... this decidedly makes me feel OLD! ) For some reason the French original 10" has always gone for insane prices. I had found a clean copy of the German 10" release of this back in the early 90s and later was surprised to see the prices the French 10" on CfD went for on eBay even in the early 2000s. But it's been reissued several times by now. That 1961 Paris session has escaped me so far. Apparently reissued a million times in Japan but nowhere else ever. Will have to check it out anyway.
