The only Interface album I could find in my Bruyninckx discography "Modern Jazz", Vol.6: Sm-Z, is this one:

George Wallington Virtuoso - Interface (Japan) YF-7092

Solo piano, recorded on July 5, 1984

Tracks:

Moon Flower

Clearness of View

Beautiful Eyes

Melody

Virtuoso

Temporal

Beautiful to Behold

Heart of Hearts

Oh Foolish Leaf

Sociability

Maybe someone else (Michael Fitzgerald?) can shed some light on this.

Universal UCCC 9129(Cadet)24bit,New Land,Harold/The Peace Maker* 2345

Very glad to see this one coming out. An excellent date from the Land/Hutcherson quintet.

The Lou Donaldson date is real good too, with Bill Hardman, John Patton, Ray Crawford, and Ben Dixon.

Anyone familiar with the J.C. Heard, the Stitt, James Moody's Another Bag, or Al Grey's Night Song?

[bertrand]

I need to get that Harold Land - I gave up on Verve.

How does one order from Tanno? With customs etc., how much will these set me back?

Thanks,

Bertrand.

Just e-mail Hiroshi at hiroshi@earlyrecords.com. He takes PayPal, and his shipping rates are very reasonable, especially when compared to Japanese internet stores like HMV Japan, Tower Japan etc.

I don't know anything about U.S. Customs.

[Rooster_Ties]

I see the line-up of the Land includes Joe Sample ( ) . From allmusic...

Donald Bailey - Drums

Bobby Hutcherson - Vibraphone

Harold Land - Flute, Sax (Tenor)

Joe Sample - Piano

Buster Williams - Bass

How does it compare to Hutch's San Francisco?? (Never been a big fan of SF, for which I credit/blame Sample -- fairly or maybe unfairly.)

[ghost of miles]

Very interested in the Land--I'll be sending more yen Mr. Tanno's way.

[Son-of-a-Weizen]

Anyone familiar with the J.C. Heard,

It's pretty good...well recorded....got a little gospel, little jump blues and a little of this & that. It's a Basie affair with Benny Powell, Charlie Fowlkes (misspelled on the LP), Joe Newman, Frank Wess..also Ronnel Bright, Johnnie Pate and Heard's brother Dave playing drums on a couple of tracks where JC sings or plays congas. Ronnell Bright is great on 'Heard the Word' ....and JC lets 'er rip for close to 3 minutes. 'Blues for Sale' is real nice. The one I don't care much for is 'Cuban Chant,' an Afro-Cuban number where Heard plays bongos --- seriously reminds me of Ricky Ricardo in action over at the Club.

[Brad]

Some of the Argo reissues look good.

[bertrand]

Why don't you just wait for Verve to put them out

"Peace Maker" feels a bit more straight ahead / less commercial than "San Fransisco". I return to "Peace Maker" a lot more often. It's closer in feel to the earlier Hutch/Land collaborations, but perhaps with a somewhat more conservative choice of compositions. Sample plays above par.
