what an angel.......cheers
-
Well....I was fairly new to this site .....shame there ain't more of the show though but I could not believe it was there. I remember seeing a video advertised years ago and never figured it was this one.....Sorry to repeat an old thread although always good to give a bit Grant Green new air!! They do have some lovely other vids too....one scorcher with Lonnie Smith and Ronnie Cuber Andy
-
If this has been shown eslewhere or needs moving let me know but I was Sooooooooo excited
-
Courtesy of Youtube.com..........apols if you have seen this before but it blew my mind just to actually see him play.....in colour WOW Part of a video with Barney kessel and Kenny Burrell perhaps
-
ok no problem I downloaded it and then with winzip I extracted it to my desktop and opened with quicktime player. Hope that helps
-
Its a video that I am playing now (watching Harold mabern hammer out the tune!)....thanks for this....a real find! Bertrand is right with it being from Soul! Have patience and it should work fine with quicktime Andy

actually they were just giving you advice so as not to cause the board trouble with people asking for cdrs of availble cds. You are not the first person that they have reminded and I am sure that you will not be the last. It does seem however that you have 'issues' with a few people that perhaps you need to settle. Don't seem that hard to see to me. I am very gald that you have lots of lovely cds and bootlegs. Well done.

OJC, Riverside, Fantasy,BN LP reissues...
andybleaden replied to ASNL77's topic in The Vinyl Frontier
I can support the recommendation. Early Records have been very good with me over the years and very reliable. As far as England goes..........(sharp intake of breath ) Manchester used to have Decoy records but they are I think gone now........Vinyl Experience .....good ish for 2nd hand.....King bee ( in Manchester) where I flogged loads of my old OJCs but years ago. Birmingham used to have a jazz shop .....cannot remember the name that did good japanese reissues but we are talking 10 years ago?? Soul Brother Records did mail order.....but a little pricy... Ebay wiped a few of em out as they were all a little pricey I thought Zweitausendeins (german mail order) did ojc lps but I might be worng.....(frequently am!) Go with the ones from True Blue or Fantasy direct....or concord whoever has em now Failing that.....its ebay As for Blue Notes......well.....that would be telling -
Hmmmmm Never looked at it that way before I must admit I bought the cd years ago when it first came out and loved it ever since. Thought it was a cracking set in all......Moontrane in particular.......maybe it because I liked bum A notes
-
Bought it when it came out on cd in Japan and never listen to it that much but its not that bad either. However Blue Note has released a lot worse domestically so as for this one ....who knows.......best go and stick it on again for that extra scientific audit that I am famed for .......
-
Yeh I missed this the first time around...dunno why.......just downloaded and its kickin.....and so is the other one (awakening).....also snagged a grachan moncur lp ......exploration.....sounds nice too! Three in one day on a free (re) trial
-
Shame on us Penance shall be to listen to more John Patton
-
oh my god .......had these two for years and never realised I need to get out less!
-
People seem to be disappearing up their rear ends on this one. Whether you like it or not is up for debate without all the other clap trap pseudo re writes of Blue Note history. Not the greatest tune on Blue Note...what should be??...I do not care . All that I know for sure is when this tune comes on.........old Andy's foot starts tappin' Good enough for me any road. Infectious at its best in my opinion......and yes sure there are other much more lovely Morgan records but this one .........from the intro til the end has me after all these years --since I first heard it gets me movin'
-
prestige lps NOT on OJC....
andybleaden replied to chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez's topic in Miscellaneous Music
I think there are loads ....got the Ruppli thing which gave me loads of things to drool over Check the online guide though as its easier There are shed loads of Gene Ammons and Sonny Stitt things and all the groove holmes and jack mcduff stuff I think there would be a few years left at least of OJCs should they ever continue -
Quote from Ed As for Hill's chops, I've heard it all before. I knew a guy in Boston in the 60's who was associated with Berkley (Berklee? Berkeley?) and Herb Pomeroy who use to rant all the time about how Andrew Hill couldn't play the piano, had not chops, blah blah. Yessir ! Same as that other non starter when people said John Coltrane...could not play a decent tune an all that other bull Same with Ornette Same with Don Cherry Blah blah Rubbish 'I do not understand' does not equal that this is rubbish Save maybe Kenny G

who SHOULD OF that guy sold Fantasy to
andybleaden replied to chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez's topic in Miscellaneous Music
actually it sounds like complete rubbish ( I will use a clean word) if you ask me. No disrespect intended and all that. Surely an example of a going concern having gone. Nothing more. Better than some firms I am more than sure -
Rush busted again!

I personally do not think the evidence will stand up in court -
new Andrew Hill and Bobby Hutherson Selects!!
andybleaden replied to tranemonk's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Cannot wait for the Hutcherson and the Andrew Hill I had most of the Hutch on LP and then sold them but kept most on cdr so its good to get nice clean copies of what I think is an overlooked period which is marked as being 70's therefore not so hot. The Andrew Hill is an unexplored era for from his work so I also look forward to hearing that also. Bit more of a treat I guess as its all new to me like some of the earlier mosaics used to be Thumbs up all round Mosaic -
What the F*ck??
andybleaden replied to slide_advantage_redoux's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Not in Britain. There's a doctrine about "reasonable force" over here, which generally doesn't include killing someone, unless you can show that your own life really depended on it. There have been a few celebrated cases here in which even wounding a burglar with a gun has led to prosecution and guilty verdicts. Nobody agrees with this. However, the implication of the alternative is that people start arming themselves and this seems like the thin end of the wedge in creating a society like the US. So, in this case, I think I side with the narrow interpretation of what a person can be allowed to do. MG and make sure self defence is self defence not shoot em in the back when they turn their back! which I believe was what the chappie in question did in the UK Back to the US Not sure how I would respond to a blokey comig at me with a gun and I think he should have had an exhaust pipe inserted to remind everybody where he got caught! As for the law about dragging em back in your house , it reminds me of when I used to work with people in hostels years ago and the paperwork when the committed suicide was that bad a colleague murmured about dragging out on the street before ringing the police. Also reminds me of the story (probably myth) of the Transport policearguing that people who through themselves from train bridges were only dead when they hit the ground...hence it was a normal police matter not Transport Police who were only interested if they died on the train or tracks -
Where the Hogs Come First
andybleaden replied to Christiern's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
yeh I remember reading about hell holes like these where the poor workers are supposed to keep their tools/knives sharp in their own time which usually means that they get blunt and then they really start to hurt themselves as they need to be very sharp and blunter knives lead to more accidents. It is a shame to think that this goes on but when we judge food by price alone there is no other way unless we target the factories and look to increase better conditions. Shame on them
