where?

you mean his signature grumbling hum-along with the bass notes or what?

...wäre kühl

knew I had seen this one online somewhere...

"Wie het kleine niet eert, is een grote lul."

I still don't understand what this thread is all about

three pretty rare LPs from the early sixties, among the first 12"LPs released in the GDR.

somewhere

I'm really getting that Disney feeling...

amazing, that's where Pryor comes in I guess, and that road to desire and eternity.

Lots to read with my backlog on guesses and answers, but OP huh? and Fathead too... and there's a theme as well. It's not GREASE just like last time then?

Me needs to be fast here as I saw Dan has already posted the answers! So without further ado - and without peeking at the answers, here are my guesses for disk zwei. Track eins. Sommerzeit. Rather ornate version with lots of tingling straight from the backroom of the bar. Initially pretty cool for its atmospheric quality, but the stomping part that starts halfway through with the audience interaction has more of a fun jam session work out; also with the geetarr suddenly jumping out from behind the stage curtains. I have no real clue who's playing, but as I cannot imagine the former fanatic wants to fool us twice by excluding the man from his BFTs, I'll drop Gene Harris's name here. The ending is a bit abrupt, wassup? Track zwei. Airy geetarr with some pretty tune I might have heard before. Sounds rather recent. Nice. The tenor is a bit of a surprise dropping in after a third of the tune is over; has some not so engaging licks in the first part of the solo, I find; bit too elevator-y. Picks up later though and steers free of that pitfall. Pretty, a bit long, and completely clueless. Track drei. familiar tune, or at least some familiar phrases in there. Nice tenor! No clue who's playing here, but me likee. Piano sounds like this isn't from the olden day either, but rather fairly recent. The piano went on too long for my tastes. Track vier. woa. some bad ass seventies film flick intro. Mofos with ugly hairdos, gold chains and buttoned down shirts terrorising the filthy streets next to the railroad tracks that lead to desire and eternity, Kentucky Fried Danger Seekers featuring Richard Pryor in a devastatingly destracting role. Powerful sax in the Bostic vein (but tenor). No idea. Track fünf. that's Poppa Lou introducing a tune, but my ears tell me that Dan is effing with us here, not too good an edit with the voice not rolling off but being cut sosuddenly. Chicken Shack follows, sounds like it might be Lou, but it's not, moreso as I think this is a tenor we're hearing here. Pretty cool, nice to hear this tune in a different version for once. Nice breathy, funky sax; no clue who's playing. an elder statesman? the guitar section is a bit of a let down with the drums sounding so thin; nice grumbles from that geetarr though. Track sechs. fun stuff from days gone-by done anew. sound's a bit awkward, especially on the piano. Otherwise this is a swinging affair, Some old guys having fun would be my guess. No names to drop I'm afraid. Track sieben. organ cum piano, very nice. yet another tenor I do not recognise. pretty greasy in the blues department. Track acht. more unidentifiable (for me) tenor sounds. This one is playing one cool, lazy ass, check this out, solo that says Bad Mofo in that Plas Johnson way but with more air and growls. Trumpeter ain't too bad either.... The rockabilly drum/bass combo I could do without. Track neun. more big tone, meet you when the lights are out tenor candy in three incarnations. Second one lays it on a bit too thick, and the third one sounds like Houston Person. Holley on bass. Can't be too difficult to find this one out, but I'm too lazy. makes me give that power tool grunt, hawrrr, hawrrr!! Track zehn. and one more again. Some nicer sound from this tenor, bit more Getz and Turrentine in the mix. No idea. Song is willow weep for me. Sounds like an R&B player trying his way in jazz. Stands up pretty good I'd say. Thanks a bunch to Dan for providing an interesting lot of tunes with many having that little extra bite that makes me growl and grunt. Off to reading the answers!

Becks smells and gives you a headache. Almost as bad as Holsten (Holsten knallt am dollsten).

well Geoff, that was pretty wild. Not something I'd listen to all too often. Some surprise melodies, however disjunct, emerging from the chaos, would have been cool. Pity there is only the pounding, the widely spaced single notes, and the small one hand figure. But I'm an old fashioned tart and by no means an expert in this kind of improv, nor a particularly ardent fan, so let's see what the specialists have to contribute.

hey crap, here I am clicking away on a link in the today's active topics listing and ploing! the answers! damn, I need to get my stuff together and write up on disk 2. I believe I heard some nasty trickery by ole Dan there...

yes happy birthday, wherever you are, hope all is well.

30 000 books lost 40 000 books damaged lots of unreplaceable works among them

huh? wassup??? damn, I need to wake up, being lulled to sleep by all the offers of Japanese Wonderdisks around these places. I hear that Alan Shorter is the thing to start an early morning, so I'll have that please. But what do I see? It is without the all important Obi!!! You'll need to drop the price mate! Or could you tie one around it before you send it my way? thanks!

Speaking of Distel and Jaspar and Urtreger, they are also featured on 8 tracks of the Sacha Distel Jazz Guitarist set (JiParis Hors Serie 01).

is the deck complete?

I put them all under the "I" of Ibrahim.

for Ubu, now listening: Schwinggg! great drive and relentless playing on a wild version of bye bye blackbird. As I wrote before elsewhere on this board, I hear some Kirk in Von Freeman, probably just a twist of a personal nature, but the blues driven forward moving phrasing reminds me of that master of the horn(s). As do some of the tonal inflections. This is not to say that they're hard to tell apart, just that neither is alone on his planet in the universe inside my ears.

ah yes, but it doesn't all need to grab to the same extent now does it? It's pretty stuff to have playing in the background yet rewarding enough at close listen. Nothing spectacular, nothing earth shattering, not even memorable really. Yet nice.
