There ya' go! A contrast-and-compare of the original performance with this... reimagining might be instructive for anybody who's curious about such things. What they did here is waaaay above the norm as far as this type of thing goes

I have bad French, sorry. It is a Shoe Song, however, and from the same time frame.

Which Box Sets do You Regret Buying, and Why?
JSngry replied to northwood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I really like both Hackett and Teagarden, but that specific material was not of particularly compelling for me. -
Which Box Sets do You Regret Buying, and Why?
JSngry replied to northwood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I do not regret not buying The Four Freshmen set. And I am kinda ok not picking up the Bobby Hackett, although if a really cheap deal comes along, maybe. Same with the Teagarden Roulette. But that Four Freeman thing, that's why I will never own every Mosaic set, ever -
I found it in a cutout bin ca. 1972 and wondered how much it would predict early Weather Report Well, not much as it turned out, but still there are moments that are ahead of their time, at least in jazz terms. Plus, the electronics were not commercially-made products. That's perhaps the most impressive part of it all for me. Here is the real Jog Falls. It's in India and generates hydroelectric power. Fitting!

I love how they have a record by Brazil 67. -
For us Westerners, definitely!

Don't thank me, thank my daughter. I was as WTF? as everybody else! She has actually taken time to have learned a little bit of Japanese, since s lot of her musical and other entertainment interests spring from there.

This 1970 LP gave the entire session, along with a good liner essay by Ira Gitler. There's really no good point for not having put it on a single CD.

It's Don Gardner Trio stuff and was a staple of labels such as this back in the day, in part or in whole. -
Why? According to my daughter, this is a jazz telling of the famous story "Momotaro'. It's a folk tale about a boy born from a peach that was floating down a river. She also tells me that the kanji for "Momotaro" are listed in the video title. How about that! Her very first response was "Holy shit, this is incredible!" Check it out: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momotar%C5%8D

MID-MONTH REVIEW + HINTS TRACK ONE - Already ID-ed as Freddie Roach, with Conrad Lester on tenor. Freddie Roach has a little profile on this board Conrad Lester maybe not so much. Feel free to shine some light on Conrad Lester! TRACK TWO - Already ID-ed as The J's with Jamie, who were actually an important group in their main world. TRACK THREE - Already ID-ed as George Braith, who imo can never have too much light shone upon him. TRACK FOUR (HINT) - We have identified the horn soloists, but not the tune itself, nor the source performanceSo...une chaussure confortable pour marcher dans le salle TRACK FIVE (HINT) - The general type of music has been identified. The record itself (or more accurately, where I found it) might be able to be sleuthed if I tell you that it is very unlikely that anybody who was alive when it was recorded is alive today. It's that old. And yes, it is now on CD! TRACK SIX (HINT)- You should not feel bad if this music suggests a type of Strain. TRACK SEVEN - Already identified as the latter-day New York Art Quartet with Amiri Baraka. I guess the audience here didn't grow up on Charlie Chan movies, especially the ones with Mantan Moreland as Birmingham Brown? TRACK EIGHT - Sonny, Max, Kenny Drew. George Morrow, and Earl Coleman bring us back home, albeit with a different energy that with which we left. Earl coleman did that to almost everything he sang. Plenty of time left for new participation and further comments!

There are some Vanguard albums waiting for you. The label, not the club. And Heavy Sounds needs to be heard at least once.

It's the Post-Pandemic Covid Poll!
JSngry replied to Dan Gould's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Last year,I tested positive for the virus after getting both doses. All that happened to me was that I took a few more naps than usual for a few days. That was it. I am over 65, overweight, and have diabetes. I consider the extra naps a blessing. So yes to vaccination. And no to noise. -
An innovator as well as one gnarlyass beard!
