Some very nice Kent Carter playing on there ....

Duke Jordan's "exile classic" with a very telling cover photography ....

Hope Vol. 2 will surface in not too distant future ....

Peter Tosh "Mama Africa" (EMI) 1983 .... long-standing fave ....

A summary so true (also for a number of other artists) .... unfortunately love was not the drug here ....

🤓 ....

David Ruffin "My Whole World Ended" (Motown) 1969 .... a golden voice ....

"Tower To The People" 😎 ....

You're right about the treasurous box set, nevertheless "The Soul Of ...." is a collector's item in its own right due to the mistakingly exclusion of him singing "Ace Of Spade" but instead featuring a fabulous version by the songwriter Melvin Carter .... so better keeping both 😎 ....

Dvorak Symphony 9 Kondrashin VPO (Decca) 1983

Obviously 👍👍👍!!!

Enough rain in the mountains, not so much in the east and the forecast here in Vienna is more than 34 degrees (aka 94) for most of the coming week ....

Bob Marley & The Wailers "Exodus" (Island) 1977 .... another warm summer night in Vienna/Austria ....

Al Cohn "Rifftide" (Timeless) 1987 .... feat. excellent Rein De Graaff (p) ....

Don't wanna be too negative but late(r) Sonny releases to me are marred by his choice of musicians .... btw certainly not the case with "East Broadway Run Down" ....

You've in for a treat ....

So there's still hope for me 😀 ....

Being a Rollins fanboy (at least regarding his recordings until 1966), but this Impulse album left me somehow undecided .... as often as I (re)listened ...

What were your impressions after having revisited this Rollins euvre .... ?

Is this from May 1966 .... ?

Dvorak Op 74/105 + Janacek 1 Smetana Quartet (BBC-Legends) 2006
