Chuck Nessa Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Shitload of 6 hr sessions here - budget dates without many chances for second takes. Best deal those guys could get at the time and they did the best they could - 'cept for rehearsals at their own expense. Paycheck time.

JSngry Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Your list does not include Hadley Calliman's IAPETUS, so I assume that you have not yet come across it. You need to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasta Posted March 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Chuck- Do you have any information on these sessions? I would love to hear it all, sir! I have read remarks similar to yours, plus some of the guys got stiffed on $$$ as well apparently? Give! ;-) JSngry- Not yet, but it will be MINE one day! Wow, a new poster like myself getting the attention of the heavyweights on the board! I certainly appreciate the responses, and from all my lurking, you gents are the people in the know for sure. Right now I am spinning the Caliman debut LP! AWESOME STUFF! pasta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 We ain't heavyweights, we're just big-boned. Yeah, that first Calliman is some cool shit, but IAPETUS is another thing entirely. Not at all like that first one. Actually, there's nothing else quite like it by anybody, ever, not really. But Chuck's points are also well-taken. CRANKIN' for instance, could have been a much better record than it was with some better preparation and supervison. And that's not the only example. Still, it's definitely a catalog not without items of interest. Chuck disagrees with me on this, I believe, but what with us both being big-boned and all, we WILL survive.

JSngry Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Yep. Good luck, though. From what I understand, it's a bit of a "cult classic". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 I'm fond of one of those Galper records, either GUERILLA BAND or WILDBIRD (can never remember which). Damned funky stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel A Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Someone said jazz died in the 70's. In my opinion, jazz was never less alive than in 1987. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
