I do, too , only label for which that is true, (not counting the 21st century Doug Carn album) and agree.

Saw her at the Philadelphia Art Museum a number of years ago, along with LWayne some past board members, and it was marvelous. My wife also loved it. I grab her CD's as I see them at sane prices.

I am used to seeing six month limits listed on the tray cards of Japanese reissues like that. Makes no sense to me, but there it is.

The only thing I can figure is that Impulse didn't want to go to a third CD, but that's a mistake.

Rhino is coming out with an expanded 2-CD set of the Mingus trio album with Hampton Hawes. 8 bonus cuts, six are alternate takes, and two are blues improvisations. At $22, I will probably pass, as I find the original album to be routine rather than special ('Money Jungle' with Ellington is special).

McCuen/RCA did some interesting Harold Vick dates in the mid-60's. Also Rod Levitt and J.J. Johnson albums.

From the samples, I'm simultaneously in the "made quesy by it" camp and the "who does that" camp. Don't know if I "like" it or not., but I do know I want to listen again. Even the title is subversive. Warwick never charted top 40 with 4 of the 11 songs, those were the Carpenters, B.J. Thomas, Jack Jones. Clearly Bacharach/David, not Warwick, was the unnamed target. And the arrangements both magnify and mock the originals. Who does that, indeed. We really need a Charles Stepney Chess Productions box set.

I still remember the gut punch of hearing "There Is" on the radio for the first time. And same for "I Can Sing a Rainbow"/"Love is Blue". Can't imagine what Peggy Lee (who I like) and Paul Mauriat made of that one.

Didn't know that Dells album existed - must check it out! Dells late 60's/early 70's period (my favorite) has not been well served in the CD era.

For the uninitiated, try this masterpiece on for size, then proceed to Callier's "Dancing Girl" if you dig this.

There were two Strata-East albums by that group - this one and "We've Been Around". Both very worthwhile. The best way to get the music is on a 2CD set by Smith on Claves, which contains both albums, an outtake from the first album, and 30 minutes of 1982 recordings: https://www.discogs.com/release/1990925-Warren-Smith-The-Composers-Workshop-Ensemble-Warren-Smith-The-Composers-Workshop-Ensemble

I pay them their $12/year "membership fee" to cut out the adds, and it's well worth it if you are a frequent visitor.

I have one of the CTI records. And 'The Dude' by Quincy Jones - that album is her great moment.

Same here! LOL!

#mysterysolved? So #3 is cut 5 from the CD issue of this?

I like that Baikida Carroll album. A lot. Really interesting musician.

Towards the challenge. If I own the album, it's on CD, which means I have the tune as a bonus cut.

Thanks David, all good to know. The last Hubbard album with "wow" factor for me was 'Outpost', but I didn't hear him live after the VSOP 70's period except for a Dizzy memorial where he and Faddis were showboating, much to Wynton's annoyment. Those three were the trumpet section in the band that afternoon.

#3 is really driving me crazy.

Well past Hubbard's prime, can't find a set list. Onkel Po series is fabulous, surprisingly so in many cases. Will wait for some feedback before jumping.

Yeah, "Boogie Stop Shuffle" was the one I thought of immediately when I saw the topic.

I know him mainly from the early Steve Miller Band albums, but he did a lot beyond that.

Anyone familiar with these three titles and able to describe them more objectively than the usual Dusty Groove language? I'm likely in on all three on CD, as the label is of great interest to me, but would like to know more if possible. The Cox and the Woodard came out on BBE CD a couple years ago, and I picked them up then. Sphere - Inside Ourselves Contemporary Jazz Quintet - Black Hole Maulawi - Oruntunds
