No.

You know, I'm willing to bet that the majority of people feel the same way. Music? What music? I can't even name one of her albums! And if they wouldn't be dancin' around all the time in sexy outfits nobody would watch their video clips either - I bet most just wait for some intentional wardrobe malfunction to occur

So that drummer sounds like Mason to you .... And the guitarist like Ritenour ... It seems so Randy, nobody knows but the two of us!

I KNEW you would run to Chris Genzel's Maupin disco, but he doesn't have it either - I wouldn't have given that hint if I had known it was listed there (Yes I know I am a bastard) I offered Genzel to send him some data, but he never replied ...

I love "One Flight Up", but the mix annoys me: The drums way up front on the right channel, the horns at a distance with lots of room ambience. Like the drummer was in a booth and the rest of the band in the large room (you remember that studio from the 'Round Midnight movie? 9 CDs for the Prestige box set? Did he record so much for them? I counted 10 LPs that were released back then, with a maximum of 45 minutes playing time, and one CD with unissued live material.

The talk about the different action of the two instruments reminds me that I read about several baroque harpsichord players refusing to play organ as they were afraid to ruin their delicate touch on the harpsichord - most organs back then had very heavy action, in German language organists were called "Orgelschläger", organ hitters!

Jack McDuff plays more piano on a track or two on the Cadet double LP "The Heatin' System". Nice and bluesy. Melvin Rhyne played piano on a track or two of two rather obscure CDs: Mark Ladley Trio, "Evidence" (Altenburgh Records, 1993) Jimmy Coe Big Band : "Say What?!" (Time Records, rec. 1987, CD available from Jazz Record Mart). Rhyne plays pretty strong piano, he started out on piano, but without the subtlety we expect from good pianists or know from his organ playing.

Not only in "out" music, but in general it is often used as an expressive means to leave a dissonant chord unresolved, like an unanswered question. (There is a Charles Ives orchestral piece of that name, I'm not sure if it uses that device, have to take a listen again). Even a musical layman will feel the resulting tension. "Out" music has more to do with the avoidance of consonance altogether, among many other things.

I find it very interesting how many listeners describe that Hodges as being shakespearian!

It's an upright, but with one of them dreaded pickups just coming up around that time, they sounded really awful, no bottom, no warmth. I'm thankful for technical progress in that particular respect. I hate the bass sound on that record, and I don't like the conga playing - sound like he overdubbed the bells and stuff later, which are nice, but his conga playing is hard, not smooth, and not in the pocket with the drummer. I like the music as a whole, the tunes, the guitarist, and the reed guy. It is Maupin, but as I said, not the Headhunters, it was recorded in 1974, and the bassist (not Ron Carter) and the drummer where the rhythm section for a pretty famous West Coast pianist at the time. If this doesn't help ... ... you will have to wait for the answers thread

My sincere condolences, I'm sure she rests in peace. Take good care of yourselves and your family, I wish you all the strength you need right now.

I checked it again: this album is not on AMG, though all the musicians involved are. I didn't know it is such a rare LP: a GOOGLE search brought up only 6 pages where it was mentioned. Phew! An AllTheWeb search brought up another webpage of a used records dealer who has a copy for $ 25.00.

I don't wanna spoil Randy's fun - or yours - but it's not the Headhunters, although the sound leading you to such a guess may be the clue. It's not Sam Brown. The guitarist did not exactly play guitar in one of the bands of those two down beat poll winners.

Good heavens! The guitar indeed sounded familiar. I will order this the minute I can read here which CD this is on! I love it, and my wife loves it too!

Don't blow your cool, it isn't! B)

We will not have to worry about the future of organissimo BTs!

Same here. This mellow track always slipped through my attention. Strange, since it is the clearest reference to his West Coast beginnings on all of his Blue Note albums. Real close to the stuff other West Coast doorbellists like Ayers and Feldman played in such a tempo.

After reading your hints and some detective work, I risk a wild guess and suggest this guy for the fusion guitar track. Have trouble playing sound samples at the time, so I cannot confirm this way. I will buy this! This is the type of fusion guitar I missed back then, Holdsworth is excellent but too cerebral, diMeola too egotistical ....

I just missed one of his newest CDs on ebay by half a buck! Has anybody heard his Highnote CDs?

In other words: Is this the new company? http://www.shoutfactory.com

Is there a website of this new company?

But, really, the best way to increase the post count while not polluting the board with silly remarks is to post and to remove it later: ever noticed the deleted posts are not deducted? May that reduce the fear to delete silly posts.

I bet this would never stop even if the post count was invisible on all parts of the board!

In music theory, a resolution stands for the process of bringing back the harmonic progression back to the root, or a dissonance back to consonance.
