yup, that one is live and also very loose. eyyy

very nice to hear that live track! (One) Tension has always struck me as more in the "classic" hardbop theme-solo-theme vein than Ramwong, where the group play is even more intense and where the solos - as individual as they may be - much more strongly serve the entirety of the piece than on (One) Tension. So I was positively surprised that this early ('62) piece was so much in that Ramwong pocket. Maybe it was just the theme and group-tone in which it was stated, I need to hear it again. The latter day quintett stuff I have heard (1968) is again much looser but with the theme merely serving as a base from which to depart in long winded solos without much apparant melodic linking to the theme and the overall development of the piece. Then again, I am talking about live stuff here. Is there any more studio material from the Quintett? Anyhow: I listened to the radio show "live" like MwGA and it was a very nice ride! Swiss German isn't my strong suit, but with some effort I could understand all of it.

In the booklet to the Intakt overview set "Jazz In Zürich", it is mentioned that Voerkel's heritage to the world is a mere half dozen albums. The set includes a duo piece with Irène Schweizer on drums. Also Lüscher is featured in the set with a duo piece with Nathanael Su (alt. sax) from the album Smada on the Altrisuoni label: www.altrisuoni.com Not much, I'm afraid; I will be curious to find out more myself.

yes, keep your head up!

I'd say Costa, hitting plenty middle and lower keys, takes quite some from the Tristano bag as well, which I don't necessarily hear that strong in any of the others.

1951, Red Norvo records for Decca (Dancing on the Ceiling), feat. Tal Farlow 1956, Lee Konitz records for Atlantic (Inside Hi-Fi) 1964, Roland Kirk - Live in London (Harkit), ctd the next day

yes, that part! I have gathered it is him, but... weird

here goes! een: I think I recognise Warne, the other tenor is territoria rasa for me. Good stuff! Obviously these guys have played together more than once, very nice blend of tone and phrases, lots of little itty-bitty beng beng neeyick going on; of course with Warne it's rarely anything else. There is plenty of Marsh out there I still need to explore, this is definitely part of the plenty! (Now catesta can put me out in my drawers by pointing out this is not Warne...) twee: and more two tenors and this time I am completely without guesses. Very nice in that laid back kind of way. Nothing much truly exciting happening, but sometimes that's what counts. Good grooves and a drink to sip. Nice contrast to the first track which is in a similar tempo but has much more shards flying around that might hit you in the eye if you do not watch out. drie: beginning to see the light with Hawkins prowling in the background and Cootie (?) talking through his trumpet. If tenor number one is Hawkins, I cannot tell who is number two (same goes for Cootie and Mr X), but it all sounds verra familya. Throw in some mean trombones to add some grease to the dancing knees and growl till the throat dries out. This swings like a lambs tail, just that two shakes ain't never enough. vier: this one has had me stumped since the first time I heard it. Wassdis, a piccolo and a bone? And whodat on the ivories? Very familiar, and I'd even wager a guess at Hank Jones here. Geeetarrr has some Burrell in it, but some stuff doesn't fit with that name... (I see Jim R did post here already, good!) Then a flute that doesn't ring any of my bells. This is good stuff! and I am curious. vijf: Elveeen! yas? Trumpet sound familiar, piano comping is getting mightily on my nerves with its obtuse denseness and bored repititions, I mean, come on! it sounds like the guy is playing a nursery rhyme on the black keys only and want us all to applaud him for that. Shee-itte. This really ruins it. ... okay, solo points out this is Andrew Hill Must be that Jimmy Woods date. Andrew must have been pretty pissed it wasn't his date or some such. WTF? It's been long since I "enjoyed" Andrew Hill's playing, I blame it on my having a too good time to be interested in his black clouded style. Good player, hell yes, but not for me, not now. The guy sounds like an eternal depression where no sun don't ever shine. zes: this is nice, but no big cigar, just nice. zeven: more of the just nice and a bit long too. what's the tune? acht: huh? Has a touch of Pepper, but definitely not him. Crank Carunch Clinck!! and there it is! On my shelves (thanks brownie)! Zut alors! negen: big fun and mucho power, but really no idea who's playing here. I like it good enough. Take no prisoners me mateys! harrr!! tien: Von! elf: this is just whack. WTF? goes on and on and on and on and yeah it's big fun and all that, but what's the idea? Khenkhekhenggh. And then there's this tenor towards then end (Hawk yes?) and it all sort of explodes into something we've all been waiting for. What's the story here? twaalf: harrrrrrrrrr! This stuffe is tight. it's dunno on trumpet and then, suddenly... it's Lockjaw on the tenor! harrrrrrr! tight doesn't even begin to describe Lockjaw. harrrrrrrrr! dertien: Sounds like latter day Benny Goodman to me. No clue who else is there. Strange sound with the piano echoing off on the extreme right and some digital ditter on the audience clapping. The drums get into this weird whack digital pea-sack sound as well... In spite of the way cool clarinet, this makes me want to pull off my headphones and hope halloween will pass in silence this year... brrrr.... veertien: ooooo! nice! vijftien: Erroll fer sure, but then? zestien: trumpet a plenty, sounds like one of those Pablo deals with trumpet summits and the like. Terry and then ?? and then ??? (sorry I got distracted...) over and done, damn nice ride!

oh they are, but the search that Alfred posted isn't. Just do a new search

Guess those guys didn't come to Philly in 1926, either. ← so some artist visited your town less than 80 years ago! why are you complaining? heheh. that pic with the trust company stuffed between those high high buildings is pretty awesome, should prove inspiring!

how about giving the Wilen credit to the Gil Cuppini album?
