saw a homeless guy with the hat today--- so of course im all- you like jerry bobby mickey and billy n pigen n phil n stuff? and he looks up and is all: "you mean the Grateful Dead?"
heres an example of a must have early jazz cd over the lp i just found today-
its so clean- so clean. zero surface noise, and this album benefits a lot from that
how about we start a what vinyl are you NOT spinning right now, because even though it was at 0 bids all week and $9.95 then with 0:04 left i bid $111 and then it goes up to god knows what and i loose it at $113.50. FML FML FML
its like the whole cape verdian blues album almost, really bummed about this one
blue note cds did switch up the way the sequence the alternates, first they had them after the master, then later they put them at the end. I like alts to sometimes better understand how the song works, or at miniumum a different set of solos
they were kind of bastards for messing with elvin though, were they trying to show elvin they they are the real big dawgs of jazz, not elvin i mean compared to the duke and johnny hodges et al, elvin was kind of like dave grohl, in a sort of way,
Cast your fate was a big intro to jazz for me, not peanuts score, which to tell you, i associated more at the time with David Benoit doing it, as he did a popular smooth cover verion in the 80s.
is there a deeper connection between Jones-Lewis band + Duke Pearson band. or is it just that they share a lot of members because that was who was around nyc to do that sort of thing at the time. or is there a deeper connection i am missing, eg. duke was in the band etc
yea!! We are are far removed from the reissue era- it kind of died out with smooth jazz, coniencdently. they should sell the catalog again to some who will use. it- whats the value and power of having it w/o using it?
