So does PC's arco (as on Red Garland's 'Groovy')!
Really ? Wow . He might be my least favorite with the bow .
-
I don't have a favorite arco solo , but if I did it'd probably be one by Richard Davis .

Posting a Phyllis Diller or Dolly Parton cover would be too easy , and I like the challenge of sticking to the jazz realm , so I'll start with this one :

Afaik , the last with the orange & black label was 9152 : Mel Brown - Chicken Fat , and the last with the red & black label was 9229 : Pharoah Sanders - Best Of (twofer) .

The rub of analog technology is that transferring to digital must always be done in real time, ie, play the tape while recording it another format. There is no alternative.
Not true . High speed digitizers are available , at a price , but even if it were true that digitizing had to be done in real-time , how would this be "the rub" ? If you're too busy to listen to a tape as it's being digitized , then you're likely too busy to listen to the resulting digital copy , so why bother with digitization at all ?
I'd love to see one of these "high speed" digitizers. Can you show me one?
Well I could , only then I'd be doing your homework for you

Couldn't locate a bigger image...
A little better...

Uh-oh , it looks like regular users , i.e. those who haven't paid $48 to become WVIP members , can only stream 10 hours a month . Wish I had known that before I checked out that Four Freshman concert....

Two dozen new concerts now available .

Played this tonight and remembered this thread...
For the Japanese it's all about authentic reproduction , which is why this misspelling , which appeared on the original 10-inch LP cover , wasn't corrected for their reissue . I suppose we should be thankful that they're not reissuing 10-inch LPs on Mini CDs !

Donald Byrd's "Up with Donald Byrd" on Verve is another and, in my view, better for a Soul fan than "I'm tryin' to get home".
I can't agree with that ; I think a soul fan would have a greater affinity for the gospelish I'm Tryin' To Get Home , than for the AM-radio pop commercialism of Up With Donald Byrd , which is a really weak record in my opinion .
BTW , why isn't this in the Recommendations forum ?
-
If your friend would like to hear more jazz with wordless vocalizing you might suggest these :
Donald Byrd - I'm Trying To Get Home
Freddie Roach - All That's Good
Andrew Hill - Lift Every Voice
Max Roach - It's Time

Dick Hyman has got to be a contender .

Am I the only one who gets a stuttering, jittery feed of all/any of this material from INA?
Nope

There's a strange error on the Fresh Sound CD , Joe Gordon & Scott LaFaro : West Coast Days . Track 4 is listed as It Could Happen To You , and Richie Kamuca announces it as such , but the tune played is actually the Sonny Rollins tune , Paul's Pal . Some sloppy tape splicing no doubt , but it's pretty peculiar that the error wasn't noticed and that the correct tune wasn't identified , since both are fairly well known tunes .

"With its modern design and popular choice of repertoire, the JAZZ CLUB is not only opened for Jazz fans, but for everyone that loves good music....."
.....Or anyone wanting to own a CD that looks like it came out of a vending machine at Starbucks .
Most Jazz Club CDs reflect the current insane remastering habit of maximizing the dynamic range and EQ compression.Actually , the loudness problem of recent CDs is a product of minimizing , not maximizing dynamic range . Is it just your subjective impression that JAZZ CLUB CDs are even more compressed than other jazz CDs , or have you actually measured and compared them ? Not that I would buy them either way....

I like LaPorta a lot; if you haven't seen it, pick up his autobiography.
I got to know him a little bit around the year 2000; he still played great.
I asked him whatever happened to Wally Cirillo: "He died from the first Swine Flu vaccine."
That's a real shame . Back when that happened (1977) , Cirillo was only 50 years old . He was still playing and composing , and had recorded with Joe Diorio in Florida .

So you're one of those people who need peepal eh ? You lucky dog .

Woods' brief solo on Gerald Wilson's "Portraits" LP is the high point of that album, but I think the notes in the Mosaic box credit it to someone else.
I hadn't noticed this , but you're right ; Doug Ramsey credits Woods' solo on So What to Teddy Edwards (!) and his solo on Aram , to Joe Maini . Eliot Tiegel's original notes at least mention that Woods is a soloist ( without identifying on which tracks ) .

Not me , I'm more impressed with her flexibility in being able to pull her knees all the way up there - lady's a contortionist of some kind .
