  1. Yesterday and today, excerpts from these:
  2. I must admit I never liked it, even though I get the pun.
  3. That's what drummer Billy Brooks called "the power of repetition". Nobody complains when an organist holds a chord.
  4. Listen to Shadow Wilson with Monk on this one: https://www.discogs.com/release/1354471-Thelonious-Monk-Quartet-With-John-Coltrane-At-Carnegie-Hall
  5. Not necessarily. There is always a certain low percentage of incorrectly copied 0s and 1s. That is why we need error correction and oversampling. Try copying a CD at different burning speeds and play them back. Quality of CD players has a lot to do with how accurately they read the data.
  6. Interesting view. I found Green's repeating of phrases a welcome variation in playing style, raising the intensity with this insisting way of confirming a phrase. You can just easily get stuck in the necessity to run the changes and the lack of rhythmic variation in a linear bebop style.
  7. That should be one for me ....
  8. He was the greatest, IMHO, and spelled himself Jerry 😉
  9. John Klemmer
  10. One of the most enjoyable albums I bought during the last years.
  11. Drummers: Frankie Dunlop, then Shadow Wilson. Blakey was playing what he always played, Riley was not really an individual stylist, although he really leaned in. Bassists: They all fit in, as long as they were strong walkers. That's what he was!
  12. I'M really curious what your source for this info is! Probably the album liner?
  13. Just found it! BTW this is a very good recording, interpretation and sound-wise, of very rare music, and using the proper piano, a Silbermann copy!
  14. I know, but right now there is no other source for the cover, not even on the label's website. I intend to replace it as soon it is featured somewhere else. BTW I as the poster, see it too!
  15. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ismay_Duvivier
  16. He always sounded young, for sure, and he really could play anything. R.I.P.
