  1. Really interesting thread, thnx to ep1str0phy - I really do love bass :-) ad Jimmy Garrison ) It took me rather long to appreciate him via his "classic" Impulse recordings with Coltrane (the fact mentioned before from another poster, that Impulse recording engineers in general didn`t do a lot of favors to bassists by keeping them low in the mix was not too helpfull either). Revelation came via a Nathan Davis date from december 1967 bringing to light "Rules of freedom" (released on Polydor) and featuring H. Hawes, J. Garrison and Art Taylor. The rhythm section has some effortless interplay and gives a the same time each of the players "room to breath".....listen to J. Garisson.... Another "enlightening" came via the John Coltrane 4 Live at the Liederhalle Stuttgart from 1963 (formely bootleg LP, now sort of bootleg CD), which features inter alias some breathtaking playing by J. Garrison on "Impressions"..... and from then onwards... ad Ron Carter) Wouldn`t like to comment reg his pun on J. Garrison. I don`t really dig his bass playing overall - for me it often seems to be sort of "lightweight" and it`s his playing on the 60`S M. Davis 5 recordings which injects them a "bottomless" touch....to which extent this is only due R. Carter`s individual contribution or to the concept of Miles Davis........ Another poster - "AllanLowe" mentioned Ronnie Boykins and the great Wilbur Ware beings his faves beside Jimmy Garrison - I would like to second his opinion and add another one - the great (late) Jimmy Woode and his playing from the mid sixties onwards.
  2. Good spot! I wonder if this is the start of a new series of releases...or not? Look at the "source"......if they would reissue a series, this would become more "traceable" abd therefore the question of legitimity could pop up faster....with a "limited series of 300" the issuer in question is on the "safer" side anyway...just my 5 cent worth...
  3. another small chapter of the (in)famous horo reissuing story....... http://www.jazzmessengers.com/jazz-messengers-picks/george-adams-don-pullen-quartet-first-recordings-2lps-on-1cd-
  4. Whenever you find time for listning and feedback, your impressions about the sonics would come highly appreciated !!!
  5. I´ve already asked Laurie, but she doesn`t know and the Storyville website doens`t give away any infos neither :-(( ........
  6. Dear all, as this Art Pepper performance @Yamagate in 1977 now being reissued as Double-CD by Storyville, could somebody pls enlighten me whether the new release features a remastered version or is this still the same "master" as used sice the early eighties via several releases ?? Thnx for any info in advance Emil

  8. Hi guys, based on the the german language version of popmarket http://de.popmarket.com/help?highlight=shipping it seems to me that there IS international shippment to Europa etc Best Emil
  9. a personal fave - with me a true (but to most unknwn) classic http://www.cosmicsounds-london.com/DUSKO/bobby.htm

  12. Ferdinand Ries - subject recordings are highly recommended !! http://www.amazon.com/Ries-String-Quartets-Vol-1-Ferdinand/dp/B000CGYO8G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1287739959&sr=8-2 http://www.amazon.com/Ferdinand-Ries-String-Quartets-Vol/dp/B00111WS2U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1287740018&sr=8-2
  13. While reading this thread, I wondered that FRIEDRICH GULDA never was mentioned. His Beethoven Sonatas are "state of the art" for sure, either the unbelievable 1968 recordings (available as bargain box) http://www.amazon.com/Beethoven-Piano-Sonata-Concerto-Box/dp/B000BQV52A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1287739523&sr=1-1 or the just recently released 1954/55 recording(a little pricier) http://www.amazon.de/S%C3%A4mtliche-Klaviersonaten-1-32-Variation-Bag/dp/B003L544SK/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1287739670&sr=1-2
  14. Like Paul mentioned, probably 81 tracks are a little bit too much as Syl Johnson was not the most versatile singer (to me !!) - nevertheless thumbs up for this labour of love supplied via the guys from Numero !!
  15. Great news this will be released as CD`s too !! KR Emil
  16. "given the length of the songs, and knowing how Pepper could drift in those late days between brilliant playing and pseduo-post-Trane wandering" in said one week stay @ronnie scott`s both the late art pepper and pianist milcho leviev were at their best and based on the part we do know (i.e mole lp`s "blues for the Fisherman" and "true blues") it would be of a suprise, if the remaining - previously unreleased - tracks should lack quality. hope this will see as 4 (?)cd set the light of day too...should be eventually no problem, as the remastering is already done.....the lp set is (even for diehard pepper followers) VERY expensive ;-(( kr emil
  17. Finally. after a two year hiatus, Universal Austria released the second 2CD set featuring vintage recordings of Austrian all time jazz great Erich Kleinschuster with guest stars. CD1 features Jimmy Heath and Art Farmer at their peak in 1968 (giving a valuable addendum/comparisson to Mosaic`s current "Single" reissue of "The time and the place" featuring the same line-up some two years earlier !!) and CD2 Slide Hampton&Jimmy Woode in early 1971. Again the production is clearly a labour of love and interested board members can obtain this via ( i `m not holding any particular interest in this onlineshop ) www.redoctopus.at Let`s marvel with with releases like this one as long they "keep coming".... Best, Emil
  18. From Jazzmattazz NEW Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Brotherman In The Fatherland (Hyena Records) Apr 4 Any infos on that ? Cheers, Emil
  19. Boardmembers, as the summer starts fading away just wanted to remind you that the second installment of the Erich Kleinschuster reissues, this time featuring Art Farmer, is in preparation for late fall 2005. As seemingly Vol. 1 with C. Jordan and C. Jones is still NOT available in the U.S (at least based on Dustygrooves website), this is still in stock with the austrian store mentioned earlier in the thread. I`m counting the days for Vol.2 Cheers, Emil
  20. mikeweil although i do also prefer a bass sound "up to the fore", i think we should settle for what we got ( and this is great music). Speaking of sessions recorded in germany in the 60s and early 70s, i would love to see somebody having the guts and start issuing the NDR workshops in a similar series finally like the kleinschuster project. the concerts i know (nathan davis/ted curson/jimmy woode etc from 1966 and the fantastic rahsaan roland kirk from 1972 feat. a dazzling 12min plus version of "volunterred slavery" come to my mind !!!) are top notch. hope this will happen sometimes..... cheers+grüße aus wien emil
  21. any new impressions on the kleinschuster cd ? cheers, emil
  22. jsngry, glad you like the cd. thers is alot of more tapes late that existent with fantastic music from the sextett featuring phil woods (two great sessions), art farmer (at least four sessions), charles tolliver (very good), john surman (outstanding !!!) .......it runs like a river in the stormy season. next release is scheduled for late autumn 05 (hence current cd is titled vol.1) rooster ties, i`ve submitted all the details to dustygroove and the are planing to import. glad we can share great music like that, best greetings from vienna emil ← rooster ties & us fans, just saw the update of the dustygroove "upcoming" page featuring Erich Kleinschuster/Carmell Jones/Clifford Jordan -- Erich Kleinschuster Sextet with Carmell Jones & Clifford Jordan . . . CD . . . Late June, 2005 best regards, emil

  24. jsngry, glad the cd made it to you. i`m very much looking forward to hear you impressiones. as i stated, j. henderson at an early peak of his capabilities and clifford jordan simply convincing as usual - the cd is dominating my player since its arrival at my place !!!!! greetings from vienna, emil
  25. Thanks! That link doesn't fully load for me right now, but I'll keep trying. ← After much perseverance and invaluable site translation by e-mail/hand-holding by the Red Octopus staff (once again, it seems that everybody in the world can handle English, but dumbfuck Americans like me can't handle anything else...), I got an order placed. Ended up being a tad pricey (a little over $40 after shipping), but I figure it's two of my favorite tenorists, it's previously unissued material, it's a 2-CD set, and it's a limited edition (geographically as well as numerically, it seems). If I overpaid by a few bucks, so be it. Such are the ways of the Carpe Diemist. ← jsngry, glad you finally succeeded. it seems the postage cost is aprox the same as if ordering from europa via dustygroove. nevertheless, after listening to the music you most likely will rate this as bargain of the year .............enjoy&best greetings from vienna, emil
