Dub Modal

Looking everywhere online and outside of random YT videos this music doesn't seem to be on any streaming platforms or bandcamp. The LPs can be found for decent prices here and there, but Mosaic does such a good job on sound quality.

Skipping the Desmond bc I have all the other CD issues of that music and am not sure I need more, esp something of that set's size. Would love to have the portion with the valve trombone but...

Not just your opinion. Not to slag any of those involved but these are worth it for Coleman who plays excellent across these songs.

Great. Thank you!

PM for the Byas if still available

A little help. This is one of my favorite hard bop tunes but I'm struggling with ID'ing who takes the sax solos first. I *think* Tina goes first then McLean after Mitchell but damn I'm not 100% and it's driving me nuts. Anyone know for sure?

1 - Nice swinging groove. Sax player has full facility of that horn. Trombone was impressively controlled but the solo was just ok. Sax was better in this tune. Is this the Basie Bunch? 2 - Sounds familiar. Love the song. Great groove and the ensemble plays well together. Feel like I should be able to guess this but nothing is coming to mind at the moment. Trombone here too, and it's very good. 3 - Killer brush work in the intro. Is it Manne on drums? Love this quiet style of song. Drummer is impressive for sure. Corea on keys? 4 - Throwback style with a more modern sounding recording. No guesses. 5 - Wow, short and sweet up-tempo. Not bad at all but no idea. 6 - Really familiar and very good. Tension is fantastic. I know this horn player but I can't name them at the moment. 7 - Swinging tune. Pianist as leader? Deft player for sure. No guesses. 8 - Heartfelt playing and an enjoyable track. No guesses. 9 - Rypdal, McLaughlin or Scofield? Leaning Ryp. I dig it regardless. Definitely not Sco... 10 - Legit. Very nice. I would guess Cuban? 11 - A bit somnambulant. Not sure who this would be. All in all an enjoyable mix. Thanks for putting it together!

Yeah, this is great news.

Marathon in more ways than one 👍

That's a helluva playlist

I'll check it out. The Shipp/Perelman Magical Incantation album wasn't for me but the strings may add something.

Like Moldea's Dark Victory, the beginning of this book includes some interesting connections and happenings in the early jazz scene. This one touches on the earlier part of the post war era too. So far, six chapters in and it's extremely good.

All over the place but specific examples escape me right now. Definitely a thing though.

I'm very familiar with it due to extensive radio/store music play in these parts as I've never been a Shania fan. I still had no idea it had been covered so much and by a pretty diverse group of artists: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/You're_Still_the_One

Tour de force this movie

Have to say the SQ on Sco's Impulse albums are always top notch. This is the only tune from No Country that I've heard and again I'm impressed with that aspect, esp Goldings' Hammond. I have the Past Present album and it's the same way.

Are we at the point where Art's posthumous releases now outnumber his ante-mortem albums? Seems like in the wake of all of these his catalog should be reassessed....maybe?

But weakening fast with many regional players now shuttering. In the US the entire alcohol industry is shrinking, with beer being the fastest shrinking segment within. Smaller breweries that can't compete with larger competitors are strapped and having to make the tough decision to close. One nearby brewery famous for its milk Stout has permanently closed and it's a tragedy.

She's pricey in NC too. I'd like to go but too much 💰 for me.

If it wasn't for Shipp's critique I'd have never known about this album. Any pub is good pub indeed. Initial take without listening is that it's a straight up grift by Andre. Not the first to do so and not the last, although just where this grift will go is anyone's guess. Whoever does his publicity is earning their checks for sure.

Yeah the comping is really good on Echoes too. I think that's his strong suit.

Have to say, I'm getting the Chopsticks reference from Lewis on That Slavic Smile which starts this album off. He makes better on the following track, Echoes, though. Thankfully Milt is on these records.

Yeesh, that's harsh as well. Is it safe to say that outside of OP, the MJQ gets the hottest takes?

Seems like you'd be better off buying from discogs sellers at this point
