kh1958

Roy Brooks, Understanding (Reel to Real)

Jimmy Smith, Live at the Village Gate (Metro) Dizzy Gillespie, Cornucopia (Solid State)

Alice Coltrane, Ptah the El Daoud (Impulse)

Charlie Byrd, Byrd by the Sea (Fantasy) Errol Garner, Contrasts (Emarcy)

I thought both discs were excellent. It captures well the Roy Hargrove I remember from live performances.

Alice Coltrane, A Monastic Trio

Little Freddie King (81 year old New Orleans blues legend, who sounds nothing like Freddie King), gets vaccinated, a blow by blow illustrated account. https://www.nola.com/entertainment_life/music/article_aaeb5b60-ea5d-11eb-ad84-775aba2e5214.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitternoladotcom&utm_campaign=snd

Harvey S Trio with Mike Stern and Alan Dawson, Going For It (Savant)

Taking a quick look at her twitter, it appears that last November she made some tweets that make her sound like she was voting for Trump. She appears to have retweeted some videos that I don't have the energy or interest to watch, so perhaps they are controversial. I don't see much of interest or controversy since the election.

I like most of Cassandra Wilson's records, some of them quite a bit. I've seen her live three times over a long period of time, and all concerts were terrific. I even met her once long ago early in her career when she played in a Deep Ellum club to a tiny audience; she seemed very nice and was certainly beautiful. Stanley Clarke I haven't followed closely, but the time I saw him play with McCoy Tyner was great. And the time I heard him leading a band was also quite good. Billy Hart is a great drummer. Donald Harrison, most recently I've seen a couple times with Lonnie Smith and also with the Cookers. A fine musician. It seems like a perfectly reasonable list of winners to me. Maybe not the best list possible (Donald Harrison is no Billy Harper), but all four are master musicians.

Lee Konitz, Stereokonitz

David Moreno, Spanish Guitars (Capitol)

Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Golden Butter (Elektra)

John Mayer, Indo-Jazz Fusions (Nimbus)

John Foster is the pianist on the unreleased Ronnie Scott's recordings from August 14-15, 1975. He is also the pianist on the excellent concert recording, Live in Chateauvallon 1972.

'Blues For Some Bones', which appears also as 'John's Blues' on "Stormy & Funky Blues". Liner notes also list 'Stormy Weather' (even that is mistitled 'Stormy Monday') and 'I'll Remembered April' (sic) to have been played as part of Ellington medley, but neither of them are recognizable.

Listening to Turiya Sings, as Ravi Coltrane explains in the notes, this is not the same as the cassette release. This is simply the raw tape of Alice Coltrane on Wurlitzer organ and vocals, without the additions/orchestrations which were on the original release..

Stan Getz Quartet with Chet Baker, Quintessence volume 2 (Concord)

I had an email from Resonance earlier this week that my CD had been shipped.

Review in Dallas Morning News. https://www.dallasnews.com/arts-entertainment/music/2021/07/15/dallas-trumpeter-roy-hargrove-gets-an-encore-with-first-posthumous-album/

Yes, I believe the story was the tapes (and other unrelated tapes) were stored with Capitol records and someone there ordered their destruction without contacting the owners, including Mr. Mingus.

We are talking about this CD, not the one above:

I do have the LP reissue. It included an EP (33 and 1/3) which has the Monterey Jazz Festival version of They Trespass the Land of the Sacred Sioux, in two parts. This is the only release of this song, to my knowledge. In addition, the anthology, Monterey Jazz Festival, 40 Legendary Years, has another song from the Monterey performance: Don't Let It Happen Here. The online Mingus discography says: Tracks recorded at the Monterey festival (owned by VOA) are: The Arts Of Tatum And Freddie Webster Don't Let It Happen Here (Malpaso 9362-46703-2) They Trespass The Land Of The Sacred Sioux (East Coasting EP ECEP-1) When The Saints Go Marchin' In

What? The album was recorded for and released on Mingus' private label back in the 1960s. For many years, this was probably the most obscure Mingus recording. Much later, Sue Mingus reissued it on LP (I believe with the Jazz Record Center), dubbed from a clean original LP, as the concert tape could not be found. The Sunnyside release is the CD version of that reissue.
