  1. A few of my favorites not mentioned are: The Cool World Roy and Diz Dizzy Gillespie in Paris (a 1952 live concert with Wage Legge on piano), and The New Continent. One of the first concerts I ever saw (in 1975, I think) was Dizzy Gillespie, leading a quartet featuring Al Gafa and Mickey Roker.
  2. kh, I bought Historically Speaking about 1969, and inside I found John Coltrane's Soultrane! I didn't bother to take it back to the store. It's a pretty nice record--with Mulligan and lots of Alan Eager. I just bought the LP--found a very nice looking copy at a Half Price Books, but someone had stolen the record, so they gave me the cover--I quickly found for sale on ebay a copy with a good record, and a bad cover--so now I am set.
  3. Gerry Mulligan--Historically Speaking (Prestige)
  4. It's on the classic album, Junior Wells (with Buddy Guy), Hoodoo Man Blues (Delmark).
  5. Wayne Shorter--Moto Grosso Feio (Blue Note, Liberty).
  6. The thesis is a fascinating read. Thank you. I love the story about sending Sun Ra as a substitute on organ.
  7. My Max arrived on Wednesday--no. 2754.
  8. Ray Bryant--Cold Turkey (Sue)
  9. I finally ordered Burning Desire this week and promptly received it, along with the amazing new DVD, American Folk Blues Festival, the British Tours, 1963-1966, and I must say I love the two extended jams, Ezy Rider/MLK Jam (20 minutes), and Record Plant 2X (11 minutes). This CD is entirely instrumental.
  10. Mose Allison--Creekbank (Prestige)
  11. Now you've done it, you've forced me to order. I sense lawsuits coming on. Mind you, on this board I think we could all sue each other. Plaintiff: "Your honor, as damages I seek the defendant's collection of original 1950s-60s vinyl, the defendant's Mosaics, and Van Gelders..." That would be the act of the lowest knave on earth, of course.
  12. Now you've done it, you've forced me to order.
  13. Not too long after this one came out, Freddie played at a club on Harry Hines here in Dallas--I think it was called the Pirate's Cabaret. Marchel Ivery was the opening act. Junior Cook was not present, but George Cables was (on electric piano), and Henry Franklin (on electric bass). The highlight that I stilll remember was the quintet opening the second set with Spirits of Trane, from Keep Your Soul Together.
  14. Yes. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...mp;#entry647871 Most, if not all of the recordings of this group are mono.
  15. haha yea i guess my title is a vague. sorry for that. and no its not spam i just got a chance to check out her music at work and i love to share music i find with others. i hope some of you like Bebel...yes? please then go and check out label mate CeU! saw her live a few weeks ago and her and her band were right on - they had to be as much of the electronics going on were presets that they all incorporated perfectly. her style is a bit more Marisa Monte but with some of the sultriness and voicings like Bebel. the instrumentation that tends toward afro-brazilian is not overtly electronic as it mostly enhances and colors the groove. essential. CéU I really like the CeU CD also.

    I was wondering the same thing--is it a 3 disc set?
  18. They do say on their website that there are two or three months to go with Running Low. The time to panic will be in July or August, or when it moves to Last Chance, if sooner.
  19. I saw the Miles Davis appearance also. I liked it and was inspired to buy my first jazz record--Miles Davis In Concert. Unfortunately, I greatly preferred the TV performance to this record, which completely befuddled me. A year or so later I tried again and bought the much more satisfying Basic Miles.
  20. I saw him at Birdland last October--he was playing with his organ trio. I thought he was in excellent form--I really enjoyed the two sets I heard.
  21. Thanks.
  22. I'd appreciate any recommendations of her best recordings, as the relatively few that I've heard mostly haven't been very appealing, to my tastes anyway, not matching her towering reputation.
  23. Perhaps because Joyce and Gal Costa both have better voices.
  24. 'Sugar' and 'Red Clay' are maybe THE two CTI albums of all time. They are of their era, but very enjoyable. Yes, I wore those two LPs out when I first started to listen to jazz back in the 1970s. Sugar is the better overall album, as I like the whole record; as for Red Clay, I just like the title cut, but what a title cut.
  25. Stanley Turrentine's CTI album Sugar also has some fine Freddie Hubbard.
