Egads!!!! Out of curiosity, is it the writing of modern players that is disliked?

Ouch, tough crowd! Haha. So I'm attempting to stay under 40. Let's try: Joe Manis Tivon Pennicott Stacy Dillard Jesus Santandreu (not under 40 but definitely worth checking) Jason Hainsworth

Noah Preminger is making some of the best music to me. His output is tireless and always fascinating Walter Smith III Melissa Aldana Jure Pukl I'll think of more for you old fogies.

I went to the mall with the wife yesterday and found some interesting albums in a store called Book Off. I've been spinning through them, only $3 each and most were still new in plastic! John Chin - Blackout Conception Jason Rigby - Translucent Space Francisco Pais - Not Afraid of Color Ruslan Khain - For Medicinal Purposes Only! and Mat Marucci/Doug Webb/Ken Filiano - 3 The Hard Way I'm going to try and get through the other 5 albums i got later

An album I can put on ANY time I do wonder if the most recent Japanese issue has improved sound clarity

Took a flier on a CD because it appeared interesting. Glad I did, fantastic performance.

Caught the Noah Preminger Quartet with Jason Palmer, Kim Cass and Dan Weiss tonight. Wonderful set

some delicious texas funk

As per the norm now, social media is reporting his passing. Very sad

I was just wondering when the next release for this series would be. I’m in. Is there anywhere to pre-order from?

Disc 1

Which solo are you referring to? I do enjoy his intro to Song of Peace and James Spaulding on Ethos is excellent. The end of the album is stronger to me than the beginning. After a third spin the writing is still good but I'm still not clicking with his solos.

I don't know why I thought this was one of the albums "from the vault", maybe because it was only released on cd in japan.

I came across the cd at amoeba cheap yesterday and decided to buy it based on its praise from members here. I don’t find it that impressive either. The writing is good, woody is great, but I could see why it sat unreleased. Only spun it twice but Tyrone’s solos all sounded the same.

I may be in the minority here but mailing a check is not an effort I’ll make to buy something these days. The only check written is for life insurance and it infuriates me that it can’t be paid online, but it’s a really good deal through my wife’s union.

Yeah, I've gotten in the habit of pre-ordering through Amazon. This also seems like a set that may not be on streaming services. $35 for 5 discs seems reasonable to me

Lee Konitz - Spirits Don't know how I actually feel about this one

disc one which is Gerry and Chet from various albums

Picked this up on vacation for a couple weeks ago and its wonderful. Also got the Pepper I'm playing now:

Gloria Coleman - Soul Sisters Features Leo Wright on alto, Grant Green on guitar, Gloria on Organ and Pola Roberts on drums. Nice little soul jazz set thats dirt cheap on amazon if anyone is interested.

Agreed! Oliver's solo on Stolen Moments is magic. My favorite solo of all-time is Gary Bartz on Misty from There Goes The Neighborhood. It gets me excited every time I hear it. It isn't a flawless solo by any means but it has so much joy in it. His mastery of time is incredible, plus he burns forever too. Its a ride man. I think its accentuated by the Kennys more sedated solo before it. The way he returns to the theme and flies away, so beautiful.

Red Garland - Red Garland's Piano picked the SHM-CD mono version cheap locally simply because it was an SHM-CD mono version cheap and boy am I glad I did.

I didn't say the release was the same as the tape. i made the comment that the tape Naima had was a session tape, thus it was a recording in the order it was recorded...because it was taken with "tape rolling". The need to document when each song was recorded isn't needed because the tape don't lie. Do they give us the order of each song on the tape is a different issue.

Documentation of the session order isn’t needed since it’s a tape of the session. Playback would give you order no?
