Holy Ghost

It's one of my favorite Jackie Macs. I like the reading, and in a way pushed Jackie to finally blast beyond the Charlie Parker mold, where I feel he finally became his own voice with this record; Demon's Dance too! Then when he retuned to recording again in the early 70's, that "pushing the envelope" spark left in my opinion. A shame. It's got to be the wankiest, quirkiest record Jackie ever did; why I love it!

Yes. Action and It's Time!!!! Jackie's collaboration with Charles Tolliver (later Woody Shaw) was amazing! When Jackie was full-blown, this: And this:

Saw Yes in concert in 1986, recall Jon Anderson being the only original member, but this record is branded 1970's Yes, 2001? Who is on this record? Like Ohio State beat Michigan nice?

Grachan, and now I see Jim Hall below this, I'm running out of time to listen to music!!! Trippin' now

Yeah! To jlhoots, why this record I was talking about in my post didn't carry over: In my opionion, this record was when Jackie graduated from be-bop, to post-bop, to when Jackie went full-blown bonkers genius. Absolutely my favorite Coltrane album, period. Grachan, and now I see Jim Hall below this, I'm running out of time to listen to music!!!

The sleeve art alone is killer!

My favorite Monk Columbia

Lols. Googled, but did not get the Wiki hit, thank you Niko.

Silly for asking, who's Mtume? Sorry still, messed up the spelling, sigh.

Digging this for all the right reasons! Here! Much love for Jack DeJohnette, posting in the Jackie Mac thread.

Not to group Pepper, Getz, nor Baker, nor the West Coast wash all together, but you get a rare view inside "the life" and how you spend your down time.... To add, Miles and Trane had the same problem on the East Coast...

Woah. Gotta absorb what you have on your turntable...meanwhile:

Just curious how you crossed paths with this album (I know nothing about it, and thinking you at least paid $25 and want to recoop your investment).

Love the picture. After BN viz WB it was Joe on Fat Albert, then Bennie Maupin afterwards, right? Maybe a rare live date? When did Joe adopt a Swahili name? Somwhere above this comes up, sorry for mashing numorous posts into one sloppy post.

A must read, JSngry asked me earlier if I read it. Sobering. Art just says, yeah, I was smacked up and did some f'ed up shit.

👍

Solo Monk is part of this set; the other cuts are solo piano from all of his other Columbia albums. There was a single sample disk, similar to Miles' Plugged Nickel:

This. Have this mini-lp issue, one of the most suavist albums of all time.

Wow, the first link is it! Have that teaser disk with Jim Hall, thanks!

Great stuff! Wish RCA, like the Sonny Rollins RCA original albums box set, would treat Paul Desmond's albums the same way. I'd buy that set in a second. I have three of them and would scoop up the others in a nice deluxe original albums box set in a heartbeat.

Gotta be the coolist Bill Evans picture I've ever seen! Now (and I still like the Patrick Roques sleeve):

Funny enough, I think King Japan jacked their own image of Bobby from Inner Glow and used another still from the same photo shoot for the sleeve of Obligue: Weren't these recordings like 8 years apart? Man, Bobby looked good.

Yeah! Just an incredible set. Now:
