Holy Ghost

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:

Kept both copies because I like the RVG remaster, but dug the King sleeve too; perfect 1967 era artwork:

😎 Now playing:

My favorite:

This is sick footage! Cool as fluff!

Been meaning to revisit (I am in the M's). One of my favorite Mobleys. Sonny Greenwich is the surprise, he's edgy and brings a different sound to the table. Good stuff. Superior West Coast. Found this one in a cut out bin!

I didn't even know he passed, much belated RIP. Everytime I saw his name on a record, I bought it, dude had an amazing groove. Thank you for being part of the great music you have left us. I get what you mean. Eddie Gladden has that sound on Larry Young's Mothership. It's deep.

Right up there with Virgin Classics, Decca is a great classical music label.

Great sleeve art...wait I get the "8"; four seasons + concertos. 4 +4=8 🤯

My wife bought seats for the season at Severance Hall, this dude blew us away back in October: Piano: Daniil Trifonov. Program: Brahms, Franz Welser-Möst, conductor. We still talk about it today. Can't wait, next is Mozart's Jupiter Symphony in January, same conductor.
