king ubu

you mixed something up there... more comin'!

D.D.: glad you liked some of the music! As I said, I didn't do a "funny rat" bft - though THAT would be a very interesting thing! Now that guy on #4 has certainly dug a lot of Brötzmann, sound-wise, heh heh heh! No need to search for such big names... that same pianist has been dissed by you elsewhere.... w: Again nice to hear someone more likes this one! "Whisper Not" is one of my favourite tunes, too, and this track one of my faves of Disc 1. I'm afraid there's no way of buying this disc. I don't even know if there's more than this cut around... Give me the names, please, of each of the three! I suppose you got the bassist right, but I'm far from sure you id-ed the others correctly, too! Thought you'd like this and the next one... not Sauer. Not Kessler, not VDMK, not McPhee C'mon, don't be pretentious That pianist... I'll say no more except you've mentioned him being a favourite several times... You sure you know these guys? Post names if you do... w: Thanks to you! Some very interesting comments! ubu

Lots of "work" for me here... First: to [...] for id-ing the first solo instrument on #15 correctly! Took a long time for someone to hear that... (<--ubu, won't tell you yet who id-ed correctly... hey folks, stop!, hear!, listen!) ubu

Now my "2,3,4": organge center, black around, with four times each the i! (black on white, in squares) and four times impulse! in between (i and ! again white, mpulse oragne). Product fo AM-PAR Record Corp, Printed in USA. That looks like an original, too? Got it for free (in some trade with a guy at that record shop - it was labelled with the equivalent of 30 Euros).

Should be the Atlantic blue/green label I think (mid-1960s). Green and red label would be a 1970s reissue. "Half Note" is blue-green, "Sweden" is orange-purple. So I guess I have a mono original of "Sweden" and a stereo original of "Half Note", yes? WAY COOL! I guess those are - besides maybe the Shelly Manne "3,4,5" and a mono "Love Supreme" that is pretty beat up - my only original LPs! brownie, I should have added some smiley, too...

The amount of Duke... well, in respect of him actually performing, it's not as big as obviously expected by a few who've posted already (and there was no money for an additional singer that night, sorry to say ) Then on "Body & Soul"... more ubu going

My own humble tribute to the great man... his voice is there, clearly to be heard and now properly identified! (Sorry to say it's not Thad, but hey, that was pretty close already!) His playing is hidden somewhere, too...

Obviously I prefer the graphic covers, too... but that one with the guitar lady is pretty cool (and much of its time, I guess, somehow reminds me of that old flick "Barbarella"...) I can't speak about the music - I have rarely ever browsed the hard bossa thread (otherwise I would have noted that couw had posted a link to the site AND mentioned the covers [not only the free tunes] before... ) ubu

Bentsy: I'll revive that JiP thread again in a few days... It will take some time for me to catch up with these, but the Urtreger has been recommended by many (and mostly, I remember, by brownie)! Got my zweit package including: - Tjader Playse Mambo - Booger Heavy!!! - Big Bags - Pepper Adams Encounter! - Getz w/ Raney & Gibbs - Harold in the Land of Jazz (wonder how that one is, Penguin says it's bad) - Ray Bryant Trio - Byrd/Burrell All Night Long - Stitt Kaleidoscope - Ellington Suites - Sims & Gershwin Bros. - K.D. 2 horns 2 riddim - MJQ Concorde - Art Farmer Septet - Art Pepper Hollywood 5CD box !!!

Got it! Wowee!

This was originally released by Gene Norman Presents under Marty Paich's name. First a ten-incher, then a twelve-incher. Both in the '50s. It was also released as 'Tenors West' if I remember right. It was reissued in the late '70s as by Giuffre/Paich when Giuffre became 'famous' Thanks! But... Giuffre famous? How could that happen?

Indeed! I guess Bird lives nowhere in or around Zurich, but that may change tomorrow...

Some vinyl I took out of the shelf, planning to play over the next few weeks (I seldom play my LPs, but there's some real nice ones that - only because they're LPs - are getting much too little air time): - Farmer/Golson: Another Git Together (Japanese reissue) - Art Farmer: "live" at the half-note (old-looking Atlantic*) - Art Farmer: To Sweden with Love (old-looking Atlantic*) - Eddie Bert: Musician of the Year (Savoy, RCA reissue from 1985) - Teddy Edwards/Howard McGhee: Young at Heart (Storyville) - Bud Shank: Live at the Haig (see more here) - Tenors West: Jimmy Giuffre with the Marty Paich Octet (GNP 1977**) - Fru'n Brew: Tony Fruscella & Brew Moore (Spotlite) - Sal Salvador feat. Eddie Costa: Tribute to the Greats (Bethlehem, Freshsound reissue) - Curtis Fuller: Blues-ette (Savoy, RCA reissue from 1984) * how to check if these are original pressings? Not that I care all that much, but I have the LPs at hand and the knowledgeable people here... ** was that the original release? Or did that come out earlier? ubu

Seven Jazz in Paris discs: - Urtreger joue Bud Powell (FINALLY!!!) - both B. Peiffer trio discs - Jazz et cinéma Vol. 4 - Modern jazz à Saint-Germain - Porgy & Bess - Stéphane Grapelli, "Django" Nice little sale (though a wee bit more expansive then getting them on Amazon, but if it's just a wee bit, I like buying in some good - well, ok - stores), and I'll get more...

http://www.sabadabada.com/new_page_2.htm WHOA! Some very very very cool covers there! A few favourites:

"East Coasting" is a terrific album, indeed! A sentimental favourite of mine, too.

Sy Oliver!!!

Looking at that list again I see that the following persons have either not yet received their discs, or just haven't confirmed that they got them in a way that I took notice of: - dutchmanx - Nate (any news? should I have someone send another package?) - hardbopjazz - Bright Moments - Dan Gould - Stefan Wood - gslade - .:.impossible No problem if you haven't had the time to listen, in fact the discussion has only just really started, so there's lots of time left! I would be glad thoug about a short post here, confirming that you got the discs, just to keep an overview and make sure I didn't forget anyone! Thanks, ubu

Uh forgot K.D.! Thought he had been mentioned! Also: Howard McGhee!

Johnny Coles Ted Curson Lonnie Hillyer Richard Williams Don Ellis Thad Jones Tony Fruscella Don Joseph Conte Candoli Pete Candoli Don Fagerquist Stu Williamson Gerald Wilson Bill Hardman Tommy Turrentine Dave Burns

! enjoy!

and I sure do! ubu

So this is from the same source as mine... great to know! I started wondering reading that guy's name rather than "fm" or the name of a radio or tv station.

That was a Duke Pearson album for Jazzline with a two trumpet frontline (Byrd and Johnny Coles) reissued under Byrd's name on Black Lion. Exactly, that one! Coles of course is waaaaay better there...
