king ubu Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Found these two on Saturday, both solo piano LPs: RHYTHMS-SOUNDS PIANO recorded 1978 ? Vercelli Italy LP 1978 Cora 01 1 Niger Mambo (Bobby Benson) 2 Portrait of Vivian (Weston) 3 Willie's Tune (Weston) 4 Hi-Fly (Weston) 5 The Man I Love (G.Gershwin) RANDY WESTON MEETS HIMSELF recorded 28 January 1976 Milan Italy LP 1976 PAUSA 7017 LP Production Associati 70 1 Portrait of Tuntemeke (Weston) 2 Buena Cosecha (Good Harvest) 3 Out of the Past (Benny Goldson) 4 Monk Steps (Weston) 5 Ode to Om-Kel-Thoumt (Weston) 6 The Three Pyramids and the Sphinx (Weston) 7 Sister Gladys (Weston) Anyone knows these? Haven't had a chance to play them yet, but I paid quite a lot for the Cora 01, twice as much as for the Pausa, roughly. Also found his CTI at the same store two or three years ago, and it's a pity that one's not on CD - it's easily as good as the best CTIs I've heard (never been a big fan of the label).

king ubu Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I see in Weston's discography that the CTI has been on CD in Japan, at least... also the pictures (from the website) won't show, sorry for that, but all the info is posted, too.

jazzbo Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Those are pretty darned rare those lps. Hardly spotted, couldn't have had a big print run. The CTI is coming back out again from Japan. Nice record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I see Cora 02 was another Weston LP. Anyone has that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I have both Cora lps. The second is called The Healers. I prefer both of them to the Pausa. Absolutely nothing wrong with the Pausa, I just prefer the Coras. The Healers - Cora 02 recorded in Pointe-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe 1. The Healers (9:08) 2. Blue Antillais (7:09) 3. Blue Moses (13:38) 4. Nite in M'Bari (10:17) 5. A Prayer For Us All (7:55) 6. Nite in Medina (7:02) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Chances are small I'll run into the other Cora, but I'll keep my eyes open then, thanks Chuck! I paid slightly over 25$ for the cora (and half of that for the Pausa), both seem in ok or good condition (I have no clue about the vinyl lingo and abbreviations, so good does not mean beat-up, which is what it seems to mean on ebay...). Anyway, I won't regret it, as I'm a big fan of Weston! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 The Cora LPs are rarer than the Pausa (which I happen to have) - never saw them. If you ever do ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Mike, I can certainly keep my eyes open, but as I said, I paid 40 CHF for the Cora 01. And the first Cora 02 I'd see I'd buy for my own pleasure... I can't do any good vinyl dubs, but I can do some kind of lossy vinyl dubs, if you're interested... I should buy a good external soundcard for my laptop some day so I could hook it up with a good hifi-set and do proper vinyl dubs, but I'm not that far yet.

mikeweil Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Take your time - I'm still not done with the last bunch of stuff you sent me - I'm buried in work! (Non-musical, regrettably ....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
