LF: Gerry Hemingway - Slamadam/Perfect World
colinmce replied to colinmce's topic in Offering and Looking For...
I saw that. Did you just get a CD, or did it come with at least a fascimile of the artwork? $15 for just a CDR seems excessive. -
Looking for these two discs, one or both, for a decent price. Just PM me with an offer if you're looking to sell.

Waiting on the hatOLOGY edition, CLICHES, to arrive in the mail Shorn a couple tracks, but it looks like a good one.

GEORGE E LEWIS above all else. Second on MRA, Hemphill, Bang & Lowe. Would also like to see Ran Blake, Andrew Cyrille, more David Murray, John Lindberg, Dave Douglas, and Hamiet Bluiett.

Revelation. If you're looking to unload them ... RIP to Mr Fischer, as well. An original thinker for certain.

Bought this one a few years back but never listened til now. Albam describes the program as more concert style than jazz and he's certainly right, but it's a nice listen indeed. Just goes to show how supreme musicians can elevate something that would've otherwise been sure syrup.

albums where the rhythm-section is the real draw
colinmce replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Also worth mentioning is RIP, RIG & PANIC with Kirk, Davis, Byard & Jones. That one is a bitch. One of the most hard-driving, ass-kicking jazz records ever made largely due to the rhythm. Goddamn. I should probably know -- but were Byard, Davis and Dawson (all three) on any other (non-Ervin) dates together? They are on the Jaki Byard Experience LP along with Roland Kirk -
Self-produced LPs of the LA free jazz scene
colinmce replied to colinmce's topic in Miscellaneous Music
I knew someone here would have it and I'm not surprised it's you I'll keep my eyes ever peeled on eBay. I've had tremendous luck scoring Carter LPs at auction dirt cheap with no competition whatsoever. As always, Buy It Now prices for the very same records are stratospheric. -
I love this date, but just have the Fresh Sounds CD. What's the gatefold like? Any good? Swings throughout. Recording quality what you would expect from a club date in 1959.
-
I see. That doesn't sound good.
-
Can I just verify that the error amounts to a poor-sounding trombone solo? I can live with that I might add that I'm still chugging along with the Murray box but I just. don't. get. it. Love Murray in other settings, love all the players, but the arrangements sound so, so off. Just like, not right. I don't know what I'm missing here. It just sounds wrong.

Really enjoy the Ellington, too. The Hampton looks nice, but like something I'd be fine buying on LP. The JJ has some good tune choices but 60s big bands are rarely my cup of tea. -
http://markweber.free-jazz.net/2012/01/24/the-early-lps-of-the-free-jazz-scene-in-los-angeles/ Really interesting reminiscence of the scene in LA during the 70s. I only wish there were sound samples. I'm dying to hear that John Carter live LP.

PM on Braxton.

Lee Morgan Mosaic disc 3 (Blue Note set)
colinmce replied to ghost of miles's topic in Offering and Looking For...
Great music, and a rare Mosaic that can be purchased in full on individual CDs. -
who else would you like to have heard play/record w/ Miles?
colinmce replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Artists
Right, perhaps I should have put that under "people I wish he recorded with more". I'd love to hear him in a quintet setting. Miles did a session with Stan Getz in 1950: Miles, J.J. Johnson, Stan Getz, Tadd Dameron, Gene Ramey and Art Blakey : Conception, Max is Makin Wax, Woody´n You, Ray´s Idea, and Old Black Magic (with Stan Getz featured) -

colinmce replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Artists
As far as people he didn't ever record with, it's hard for me to say. I think a session with Getz and Haig early 50s would be beautiful. I also think he would have done very nicely with Coleman Hawkins. A shame, too, that George Russell never arranged a group for him. As far as people I wish he recorded with a lot more: Lee Konitz, Lucky Thompson, Al Cohn, Kenny Clarke, Horace Silver, and of course Bill Evans. And lord would it have been great to hear him accompany Billie in a small group, but the timelines just don't jibe; she was too far gone by the time Miles came into his own Of course, my post mostly revolves around his Prestige period. Sorry. -
Dusty Groove is listing Nine +1 Tristano Compositions (For Warne Marsh) for release in June. Hat has this listed among possible reissues, though of course the original title is 8+3. Hoping that this is an accurate listing, it would be great to have that session available again.
-
Great interview-- I had no clue he was recorded so widely with Quincy Jones. A tad disappointed the interview didn't move into the sixties. Such great, interesting playing on the Revelation sides. I would have liked to hear about his processes and thinking, and maybe more on the scene of that era.
-
I should say I don't know if these are brand new, so apologies if this is old news. But usually when reissues crop up like that on DG's front page it means they are new releases.
