Renotte was from Liège in Belgium, and his music shows more modern Italian and German influence than French. He who likes Haendel's suites will probably have a taste for this.

Horace Parlan was Kirk's regular pianist at the time. Getz and Rhyne probably sat in - as I said, Rhyne had played with Kirk when both were still unknown, before Kirk recorded his first LP for Bethlehem.

Melvin Rhyne had played with Rahsaan very early in his career, c. 1955. This must have been a happy reunion. Rhyne was in New York for a session with Wes Montgomery for Riverside. https://resonancerecords.org/product/rahsaan-roland-kirkvibrations-in-the-village-live-at-the-village-gate-cd

Hi all, Nils Winther of SteepleChade records is looking for some photos of Pony Poindexter for an upcoming CD release of live material. Does abybody here have any? I only have the Polaroid that is posted on the first page of my Poindexter disco. Thanks a lot!

What in the world has a Dürer self portrait to do with Bach?

The two "unreleased" Village Vanguard tracks were included in the box set from that gig a few years after. Nothing that isn't available elsewhere in more complete form, which most completists probably have. No idea about the mastering, but if it's by Hoffman, it probably sounds great.

If the Heath Brothers gets a CD reissue, I finally might get to hear that one.

Yes, that's what it's all about. And they had blues roots, too. They were Alexis Korner's rhythm section before Pentangle, he thought they were the best for Renbourn, Jansch, and McShee. All other folk bands in Britain had rockish rhythm sections that all sounded similar.

Exactly the same here. Would be nice. I just have one Hank Mobley cover on a wall above a window. Pim, how many LPs do you own?

I bought that album as soon as it was out. Saw them live when the second or third was out, neither Thompson nor Terry Cox. The jazzy groove was missing.

I definitely will check this out. Hart and Cyrille!

R.I.P. He always left a good impression when I heard him on a recording. There were quite a few pianists like him on the West Coast, but they all were good.

I saw the reunion band live, unfortunately after Danny Thompson split. McShee was great, but the rhythm section was disappointing. What set Pentangle apart was the jazz sensibility of their rhythm. No other band band like that. Later on I saw McShee and Renbourn as a duo, a friend had taken me to an obscure folk club down the Rhine. Wev had a glass of wine or beer after the gig, very nice people.

Me too. Had not played this in maybe ten years, Rather simple blues riff tunes among the originals, but the feel and groove was much more lively than I remembered. And Wes always delivered fine solos.

I thought it was my connection. Glass fiber below the road, but the old thin copper telephone cables from there, for forty apartments. But other sites load as always.

He led the jazz big band of the local radio station for several years, the news of his passing was reported on their news pages today. R.I.P. This was his farewell concert:

I wonder if I ever get to watch this over here.

Pentangle was such a unique band. Superior musicianship.

R.I.P. He had such a big sound, I think the best of all British bass players. I think hearing him on the Pentangle albums may have been my first exposure to double bass, it definitely started my love for that sound.
