  1. Lytle is one of the good-vibes ( ) musicians that never fails to brighten up my mood. The Village Caller" is a very nice groovy album!!! Yes, that's the Tuba label twofer CD, not as bad as that review wants to make us believe. These probably would have been on Riverside hadn't that label folded Just before. My last vibes purchase was this: which is much better than the bland commercial Atlantic pictured above (Jazz for the Jet Set).
  2. The only "A Night In Tunisia" I could find in Bruyninckx that possibly could be the one in question is listed under a December 29, 1945 broadcast from Billy Berg's, with the infamous Gillespie/Parker/Jackson/Haig/Brown/Levey line-up, but whereas the other three tracks popped up on various Klacto, Spotlite etc LPs, this is said to have been issued on Philology W80-2. So maybe....... There is no respective entry under Pettiford's name. The Philology CD otherwise contains Parker live tracks from 1951, 1952 and 1954.
  3. This was one of the LPs Schlitten produced for MPS in Germany. Pausa released quite a number of these in the US. Bruyninckx lists the tracks as follows: Autumn Leaves The best thing for you is me Just friends Momentum Nobody else but me We'll be together LP # was 20.21757, recorded July 21, 1974
  4. All of Adam's Apple - my Wayne Shorter desert island disk. But there is a lot of great soloing, of course. On soprano, the duet with Zawinul on oneWeather Report LP, and some of Native Dancer.
  5. ... but only on one track with a lengthy solo (Soulin'). I'd recommend it - was my first Pearson, and I still enjoy it.
  6. Has anyone here got the Rhino Rascals box set? Does it merit the high price?
  7. Now will I have that same look on my face that he has after his encounter with these ladies?
  8. I remember Jaco's bass sound to be pretty enervating on this one.
  9. I know there's the Chess box - but anyone got the two Bear Family reissue CDs and can compare? how's the sound, and which selection would you recommend? As always, many thanks!
  10. Here's that review I linked, to water some mouths:
  11. Still noone that has listened to this?
  12. My barber co-owns his shop and has neat little slots for the tip money on the bar, so you can decide anonymnously how much you give to whom. But as he does the washing and all himself most of the time, I tip him.
  13. Not among the best RRK on Atlantic in my personal opinion, 'Rahsaan Rahsaan', 'Left and Right' and 'Inflated Tear' are stronger. Yeah - but my favourites!
  14. Go figure why there are no mixed tennis matches.
  15. Same here!
  16. The only label box I have is the 2-CD Cobra box - at thetime it was the only way to get the Otis Rush master takes in one place. Other music on it is good, too.
  17. That's probably the one I pull out the most often, too. If they only had included all the lyrics ... I don't have too many rock box sets, the only one I pre-ordered was the Buffalo Springfield, 'cause I simply love their music. The Cream is great too, and it is absolutely classic material!
  18. ..... and it took the Japanese 20K issue to find out?
  19. Here Comes Whitleman - Atlantic Bright Moments - Atlantic A Meeting of the Times w. Al Hibbler - Atlantic
  20. Not only the piano sound: basses sounded thin, drums tinny, with the kickdrum almost inaudible, a trademark Schlitten unfortunately carried along to many Muse recordings - courtesy of his studio/engineer preferences. Strange, 'cause Paul Goodman at the RCA studios was capable of much better sound. Must have been Don Schlitten"s taste.
  21. Chronologically, it was a Blue Note session with Tommy Flanagan, Oscar Pettiford and Shadow Wilson, with Frank Foster on some tracks, part of which was released on Kenny Burrell Vol.2. The first issued was the Prestige with Cecil Payne, Elvin Jones and I don't remember who else. The first Blue Note LP had Kenny Clarke, Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers and Candido Camero. All great ... First Burrell sideman date was with Gillespie on DeeGee, IIRC, with Coltrane in the band ...
  22. He does!!!
  23. KnoWare!
  24. DING DING DING DING DING!!!!!! OR, to put it in the exact words in which I conceived it, "One Degree of Blue Note" B-) Cool theme, yes? Think I'll go and edit my original post and emphasize the connecting elements ... Congrats to Mike Weil for pointing in the right direction and Jim Sangrey for bringing it home! So teamwork strikes again! Cool idea! The only disappointement after reading the answers was the Les McCann track - too superficial for my taste. Otherwise, all soild or great music. Thanks!
