    Another vote for the late 1950s/1960s Contemporary albums: Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section (1957), Art Pepper + Eleven: Modern Jazz Classics (1959), Gettin' Together! (1960), Intensity (1960) and Smack Up (1960), the Japanese release Art Pepper with Warne Marsh (1956), plus the Vanguard set - I agree with couw's assessment of Pepper's playing during the Vanguard dates.

    My fondest memories go back to the mid-to-late 1960s, one amazing rock album after another came out in those years...

    AB, You've been listing several of my favorite albums these last few days, such as these two: I wonder what's next...

    How can you not be sure that the New Orleans band count as jazz? What they play was jazz long before most of what you listen to today was even thought of. Exactly my point. BM, what made you think that it might not be jazz?

    Indeed. One of the all-time greats.

    Ohhhh yeah. The Mosaic sound quality with Malcom Addey at the helm is the best. Ron McMaster does excellent work, with the sound, as well. You may read about my Mosaic/Addey orgasm via my three posts starting here. Mosaic and Malcom Addey. While I wholeheartedly second your Malcolm Addey recommendation, I respectfully disagree with your statement re Ron McMaster remasterings. A case in point (at least to my ears) is the Lou Donaldson set, which sounds terribly loud/compressed on my system, though the kind people at Mosaic assured me it isn't. It makes my ears bleed so to speak... Sorry to spoil the fun

    You're lucky, I decided not to bid on the Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions set at the last minute - it might have cost you a bit more if I had...

    My favorite Booker T track is "Behave Yourself" from the Green Onions album.

    As far as I know Rita Coolidge was married to singer/songwriter/actor Kris Kristofferson.
  11. J.A.W.
    It's a bit loud, but not that bright, at least not to my ears. I don't have a problem with it, and I also have a solid-state system.
  12. J.A.W.
    What was the problem with the Davis Cup TOCJ24? Too loud/compressed, too bright, or?
  13. J.A.W.

    Very true. With "dated" I meant that it hasn't aged very well, on the contrary.

    Cedar Walton's piano on his two Boomers albums doesn't sound kosher either.

    Happy birthday!

    Couldn't agree more.

    That's funny, I'm currently re-appraising my free/improv discs and am now listening to: . I'm not sure I like it, but I agree with David's remarks re Randy Peterson. Loved the McPhee/McLellan, by the way, great interaction between the two. "Pointillistic" is a good description of McLellan's playing. Edit: the Maneri's not for me, I'm thinking about selling his CDs.

    I know, this isn't the place to sell CDs, but if anyone's interested in taking John B's OOP avatar off my hands, send me a PM. It's $16.

    I'm listening to at the moment - so far, so good... Had a first and fairly quick listen to Braxton's Donna Lee in the Universal "Free America" series, and found it rather disappointing; it sounded a bit dated to me, which, of course, isn't that strange with decades-old recordings, but still...

    I second Mike Weil's recommendation of the newer Pieter Wispelweij recording
