Mozart - String Quartets K.589 and K.590 - Vienna Quartet Schubert - Piano Sonatas D.784 and D.850 - Ingrid Haebler

Last night. Bobby Previte "Second Arrow" band. Angelika Sanchez on piano and keyboards, Matt Bauder on tenor sax, bass clarinet and flute, Wendy Eisenberg on electric guitar, Jerome Harris on bass and Bobby on drums. The Local in Saugerties. New LP is out.

5. Oh, it's a clarinet, maybe Jimmy Giuffre?

Alvaro Enrigue: Now I Surrender

Obviously correct on tracks 2 & 4l Track 5 is not a bass clarinet. Track 6 is not Harrison-Blanchard.

#6 is April in Paris but I don't have this recording or recognize the artists. The Thad Jones version (from The Magnificent...) is the one imprinted on my memory.

$26

2. It's "God bless the child" from his masterpiece "To my queen", with George Tucker. Just I got a japanese vinyl reissue in the listening stack. Another batch: 4. Great hard-bop. I got this: "The rat race blues" by Gigi Gryce on Prestige. With Richard Williams, tp; Richard Wyands, p; Julian Euell, b; Mickey Roker, dr. 5. I like a lot this bass clarinet, but no idea who is. 6. Not my fav style, sounds to me like neo-bop from the 80s, maybe Harrison-Blanchard?

Obviously track 1 is "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes. Track 2 is Walt Dickerson, but Richard DAvis is not present. Track 3 does not feature Kenny Burrell nor Rufus Reid.

Unfortunately, that highly regarded release is oop and difficult to find.

Yes, a portrait by Thomas Hart Benton titled "The Sun Treader".

Miles Davis “Milestones” Sony 2 SACD set. In 7" packaging. Stereo version SACD.

It was around that time that he played with John Martyn.

That was aleady in 2015! https://www.discogs.com/release/7480681-John-Stevens-Away-John-Stevens-Away-Somewhere-In-Between-Mazin-Ennit

Is that a portrait of Ruggles used for the cover? Very nice. Who panted that? I should look for this release.

Spinning this once more. I really like this compilation, made with love and understanding, and good sound. Quite a few alternate takes used. Vocalists were an important part of Ellingtonia and are not really done justice, me thinks.

Even colder this morning than last! Better than too hot for me at least. Started off with the SHM-SACD of John Coltrane “Live at the Village Vanguard.” Great sound! Timeless music. 500×491 35.7 KB On to a new arrival, the Elemental Records cd of Bill Evans “At the BBC.” Great performances from Bill with Chuck Israels and Larry Bunker. The sound . . . this one is one of the worst sounding of the RSD Evans releases. Distortion is the worst sin, the original recordings seem deficient.

I'm a 1990s boy. Peak Womad. That's the sort of trauma that takes expensive therapy to overcome.

Eddie Harris – Instant Death

I listened to the first 3 (the art of duo). 1. "Smoke gets in your eyes"? Sax-guitar sounds similar to Lovano-Frisell. Nice. 2. I love that vibraphone. Top. It's Walt Dickerson with Richard Davis? 3. I don't recognize the theme. It's Kenny Burrell in the 80s? Maybe Rufus Reid on bass? There is a live duo but I don't have it.
