...and did you know there's a site dedicated(?) to "Hair" recordings?
http://ovanwerven.nl/Studio/Studio_Albums.htm
What a great thread......that's why I LOVE this place!
Thanks everyone!
BTW I have no real preference for either of the two volumes of "Conversations with Warne". Get whatever's the cheapest, soulpope, and see what you think.
I must admit I don't play this one very much; I much prefer their other recording from 1978 "Conversations with Warne" which has the same personnel but omits Lou Levy on piano. (I wonder if that's why I prefer it?)
Anyway, I never knew that Steely Dan were involved in its production. What's the story behind that?
I believe it is/was mostly to neighbouring countries. So for The Netherlands both Amazon UK & DE.
Since when has the UK been a "neighbour" of the Netherlands?........
The two albums on Atlantic were/are available as a two-fer on Collectables as well. All the tunes, I think, were recorded in April, 1956 so you can probably check your Dragon albums to see whether you already have them.
Just noticed that this is coming out next week:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Atlantic-Jazz-Legends-Various-Artists/dp/B0009UXOG8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1396336337&sr=8-1&keywords=Atlantic+Jazz+Legends
20 album for less than £3 each, a real bargain.
It'll make a good door-stop too.
Please let us know what it sounds like if you get it it, etherbored. I'd be interested to learn what the mastering's like on this series.....there's nothing worse than "loud" fusion!
