Back at the stereo for a bit. Pulled out Dexter Gordon "Our Man in Paris" 24 Bit by RVG Blue Note Japan cd Earl "Bud" Powell on the piano chair makes this a special session. There are perhaps better sounding digital editions, but I still like this one, it's "earthy" sounding to me.

I have some of these works on lp. Some Dgg lp's from a certain era sound strange, no depth, no soundstage, very thin ... this recording/pressing is an example of that phenomenon. EDIT: maybe the best way to descibe it is lifeless. I bet it sounds better on cd though ...

One last bump for a great box set. Total price averages to less than $20 per record shipped! I will keep this listed until Friday, August 8, and then return it to my collection if there is no interest by that time. Offered for sale is a beautiful copy of the Ramones: The Sire Albums 1981-1989 7lp box set. Ramones: The Sire Albums 1981-1989 7 LP, Rhino (2022) RSD 2022 Everything is in Mint condition (slipcase box, records, record sleeves). The slipcase box still has the original shrinkwrap around it, with hype sticker attached, but the shrinkwrap has been opened on its side edge to allow retrieval of records. Records played once. All records are flat and play perfectly. https://www.discogs.com/release/22212301-Ramones-The-Sire-Albums-1981-1989 $123 (+ $10 media mail shipping for this large and heavy box set).

I love it. Sounds great too. I am a fan of Rafael Kubelik's conducting in general.

Listening to this album, as I just got tickets to see him perform here in Paris in September!

Buck Clayton - The Complete CBS Buck Clayton Jam Sessions (Mosaic). Disc 1 is up first. I get the urge to play these jam sessions every now & then and they never disappoint. Such a fun set. Your feet tap no matter your mood. It's the kind of music where I wish I could've been in the studio to see these Jazz greats in action.

8, does not include Sam Jones. 10. doesn not feature Vic Dickenson nor Coleman Hawkins. 11. is not Marian McPartland. 12. is not John McLaughlin. 7. is not Stanley Cowell. 1. is Gerry Mulligan's "Swing House," though obviously not by Gerry Mulligan. 2. is Lee Konitz & Chet Baker playing "Walkin'" with Beaver Harris. 7. is "Be My Love." 8. is Oscar Pettiford. 9. is not by The Three Sounds. 10. is "Easy Does It." 13. is "Crescent." 14. does feature Phil Woods on alto saxophone. 15. is "Some Other Time."

must have been a great night there in London @mjazzg

SF Jazz Collective “Live 2009 – 6th Annual Concert Tour – The Works Of McCoy Tyner Plus New Compositions” disc 1 Dave Douglas on trumpet, Joe Lovano on tenor, Renee Rosnes on piano, Robin Eubanks on trombone, Matt Penman on bass, and Eric Harland on drums

I'll second the nomination of #9 as Gene/Three Sounds. Might be able to figure out if someone names the tune.

Starting off another deliciously cool morning with another disc from the Grateful Dead "Enjoying the Ride" 60th Anniversary box set, Oakland Coliseum Arena, Oakland, CA (12/27/89) [b]disc 2[/b]

Ts-find, excellent 'Bach' pianiste What are your thought about this set ? How does it sound on cd ?

Thanks. I just "Joined"

RIP, big loss. Great director. Sadly I never saw any of his NYC productions live (wasn't yet into BAM aesthetics when I lived in Brooklyn long ago). Must have been interesting to work with him. Scanning his website, Wilson's work seems to have been better received in Europe than in the USA.
