Fourth Generation (Whilrwind) Leader is drummer Juan Chiavassa and it possibly can be streamed on Amazon Music Jazz Album Reviews: A Round-up of Recent Recordings - The Arts Fuse

9 is Helena, the last track (#8) from El Chico. Chico and Gabor, but no Dolphy

It will be the first time on the continent. I have played the worlds in Australia, Malaysia and England, all many years ago.

I'm headed to Accra, Ghana to play in the WESPAC championships Nov 12-16.

On 2, Wayne Shorter does solo on tenor eventually.

Also track 4 on Black Forrest

Timings and a quick compare lead me to ID 2 as The Barbara Song composed by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill. In other news: Grant Green – First Recordings – CD (Compilation, Remastered), 2013 [r13568700] | Discogs If six was nine ... well it is.

So who gets JSngry to willingly listen to ECM? Maybe Jimmy Giuffre? That might not be later than Gil Evans. Charles Lloyd?

1. no clue 2. Gil Evans, probably from The Individualism Of 3. Keeps the mood wonderfully. Wayne Shorter? 4. I think this is to be found on the Classical shelves. I was thinking maybe part of Debussy's sonata for Flute, Viola and Harp, but I hear a other instruments in there too, so no. 5. Introduces subtle vocals, still keeping the mood. I'd be surprised if it is actually who it sounds like, Norah Jones. 6. Taking the tempo up a bit. Could easily be on the Black and Blue label. Illinois Jacquet? 7. Trumpet feature with a hint of (Brazilian?) percussion. Kenny Dorham? 8. Conga heavy beat in the intro. I should know this if it's McCoy Tyner. The piano playing is of that level. 9. Latin percussion, flute and guitar. Gabor Szabo? Chico with Dolphy? 10. Expressive tenor sax. Ben Webster?

Well done Organissimo Forums. All tracks identified. #6 had me from the beginning of the first time I heard it. One of those tracks that wraps you in a sound world from the start - others that do that for me are Soft and Furry by Johnny Griffin, Africa by John Coltrane, and McCoy Tyner's intro to Coltrane's Body and Soul. Escoffery's solo keeps the mood going for me. If I couldn't tolerate showy playing I'd have to give up Art Tatum and James Carter - and to that I say - no way! And Joe Locke sneaks into my top 5 on the instrument, although I wouldn't expect everyone to agree.

It seems Ken Dryden is a fan of the sax on #6. I was surprised to find out that the saxophonist was born in the UK, but lives in New York City now. The marimbist/vibist has more records as a leader than the sax, but this is the saxist's date.

Got to see him at Big Ears with the second generation of Coltrane and Garrison. I have known and respected his name for almost 50 years.

Zeena Parkins, Ned Rothenberg and Tomas Fujiwara are the jazziest of the new adds

Pick one out for me.

At this point, I have no objection to unlimited disclosure of performance enhanced (Shazam) information. Still hoping Tim Webb avoids spoilers and gives it a go.

On to the clues. For 3 and 4, Thom's phrase "familiar adjacent" is definitely in play. Horns from 3 and 4 have appeared on BFTs in this decade. A participant in this BFT has praised the album containing 3 on this forum. A horn from 4 has been described as a favorite by one of the participants in this BFT, but on a different horn. And a participant in this BFT included a track from the same album as 4 in a BFT from an earlier decade. 6 is more of a challenge. Recorded in 2007. The sax has recorded several albums as leader, but a different member of the band may be more familiar to the participants.

Which matches mine. And this is where it started for me.

No Blythe, No Higgins.

1, 2, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12 are identified so far by artist and title. Two musicians known on 8 No musicians IDed on 3, 4 or 6

Yes, #12 is Prayer. No Buddy Rich or Le Rex. Thom was correct about the decade of #4. I don't agree with the "Horrific" part. #6 does not appear to be a recent reissue.

And Thom nails the bass on 8, it is Jamaladeen Tacuma. And the piano on 12 is Keith Jarrett. Elvin, Mingus, Gonsalves and Dickerson right on target, and Bang and Garzone despite yourself. I will drop clues on 3 and 4 in about a week if Tim hasn't gobbled them up by then. 6 is likely to evade identification. I first became aware of Jamaladeen Tacuma under his previous name Rudy McDaniel when Walt Dickerson brought a test pressing of his second Steeplechase album, Serendipity to WRTI, the Temple U radio station, all jazz at the time. He spoke highly of the teenage electric bassist.

Thought you might find another name on further listening. The sax on 8 is George Garzone.
