  1. Do know "Manteca Suite" - and agree that Latin BTW latinized music favours trumpet players with more "punch" (by incident Chocolate Armenteros comes to my mind ....). So with "Aztec Suite" me didn't expect a "different" Farmer but simply more from Farmer ....
  2. Interesting thoughts regarding Addison Farmer not filling the spot of a Latin bass player properly .... but to me Art Farmer makes his presence felt not sufficiently - at least least not to the extent I would have wished for ...
  3. Both are excellent recordings .... each listening reveals previously unheard subtleties ....
  4. In case missing the previous reissue in 2011, Herb Geller's excellent "Fire In The West" ist part of the "Atlantic SHM-CD" series ....
  5. Charles Davis R.I.P ....
  6. Martial Solal solo .... recorded December 1975 (LP Musica Records MUS-3005)
  7. Superb effort - especially Carter Jefferson and bass master Andy Gonzalez shine brightly .... the Monk Songbook suits perfectly to be "latinized" .... this recording definitely should be shouted from the rooftops ....
  8. On a side note - "Aztec Suite" IMO disappoints (at least from a dedicated Art Farmer follower's perspective) .... quite in the contrary to "Brass Shout" ....
  9. Top notch Beethoven String Quartet recordings ....
  10. Probably time (for me) to dust off these platters .... :

    Very interesting .... thnx for sharing ....
  12. Must have read by Chicago Soul expert Robert Pruter ....
  13. Sounds like an apt description to me ....
  14. Sonny Fortune (as) + Kenny Barron (p) + Reggie Workman (b) + Billy Hart (dr) + Angel Allende (perc) ....
  15. Don`t know the recording you are refering to, but once heard excepts of this one : The vast part of the music was written by Austrian Pianist Fritz Pauer ....
  16. Excellent platter .... fully agree on the Enja Victor Japan pressing - same applies to Terusama Hino`s "Taru`s Mood" and Peter Warren`s "Bass Is" ....
