  1. You haven't heard his last two releases--Saturday Morning and Marseille? Both are very good records.
  2. The Amazon description says it is solo piano except for three tracks which are duos with James Cammack.
  3. That sounds like a music festival I would like to attend.

  5. The Tenors of Yusef Lateef and Von Freeman (Yal)
  6. Amazon has the Kenny Burrell for a lower price than some of the others (currently $26.99).
  7. Yesterday I listened to the Tone Poet version of Introducing Kenny Burrell, a record I have never run across on LP form even as a Liberty. It sounded beautiful. Quiet surfaces. No warp. Attractive cover with very nice photos in the inner sleeve. I must be missing some terrible flaw.
  8. All of the CD2 tracks are in acceptable sound. Highlights are T Bone Walker playing with Luther Allison on T Bone's track, then T Bone Walker backing up Big Mama Thornton.

  11. Yes, it is good. I also heard Tom Harrell presenting the music from Something Gold... at the Village Vanguard, but Dave Douglas was the second trumpet on that occasion.
  12. The ghost of Bob Weinstock appeared and said no? I had the opposite reaction to hearing part of one of her live sets. She didn't seem ready to me. But then again, I don't really care for Betty Carter either.

ARTISTS Magos Herrera, vocalist Johnny Gandelsman, violin Colin Jacobsen, violin Nicholas Cords, viola Michael Nicolas, cello
  14. My bad memory. 1972 or 1973, approximately the last time I listened to the LP, sure is long ago..
  15. Getz is definitely on. The recording quality is very good. I've been very pleased with it. If you are a Stan Getz fanatic (like me) it is essential. If not, it's another very good Getz record.
  16. Mountain, possibly. They are not in the movie or on the first two record sets. And I heard Leslie West say something like that in an interview.
  17. World Music Unleashed 2019 World Renowned Musician Steve Smith (Drums), Plus Gourisankar (Tabla), Aboss Kosimov (Doyera), Tony Monaco (Hammond Organ), Indrajit Banerjee (Sitar), Indradeep Ghosh (Violin), Eduardo Cassapia (Oboe and Flute) and Brajeswar Mukherjee (Vocal). Friday, September 6 @ 8 PM Bates Auditorium UT, Austin
  18. On the first CD, two of the eleven songs I find to be unlistenable sonically (Luther Allison and J.B. Hutto). One track (Otis Rush) is recorded very well (why not release this whole set?). The rest are in between, listenable (for me) but clearly audience recordings. The music quality is good to great (B.B. King's wonderful track, for example). I haven't ventured into CD2 yet. Actually, reading the fine print in the notes, the reason the Otis Rush is so sonically different is because it was actually recorded at a concert for the 1970 Ann Arbor Blues Festival.
  19. As I listen to this, the sound is wildly variable. the Otis Rush track sounds like a professional recording, while the Luther Allison cut sounds like Dene Benedetti was there with his wire recorder.
  20. Agreed. I think they must have played longer sets than 4-5 songs, judging from Magic Sam Live, which releases his set in full on two sides of an LP, as I recall.
  21. For the Blues fans in the house, there is an interesting new release recorded live at the 1969 Ann Arbor Blues Festival, which might be the greatest assemblage of blues talent at one place ever to occur. The recording quality is not great, but seems acceptable for the most part. With my Time Machine, I would surely pick this Festival over Woodstock; an easy call. https://www.amazon.com/Ann-Arbor-Blues-Festival-1969/dp/B07SQ66W35/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2MA27X3OZHAYN&keywords=ann+arbor+blues+festival+1969&qid=1565367858&s=music&sprefix=Ann+%2Cpopular%2C154&sr=1-1 Tracklist ANN ARBOR BLUES FESTIVAL 1969 - VOL. 1 1 Dirty Mother for You – Roosevelt Sykes 2 So Glad You’re Mine – Arthur “Big Boy” Crudup 3 Too Much Alcohol – J.B.

  22. Thanks for the attention and the comments!
  23. Don't tell them about that fire. Shhhh….
  24. There were original recordings on Trip? I did not know that.
  25. Well, Clifford Brown sounds so glorious on the Emarcy pressings... Those Trip LPs were everywhere in the 1970s. They were below-average pressings in an era when the average pressing was below-average compared to the 50s and 60s. I bought a fair number back then, but I would not today.
