Dub Modal

Interesting convo about this re modern remastering choices and preferences vs original intent. This can’t be the only note or song affected.

Very slight correction in that track 4’s album has been ID’d but I don’t think the actual song from that album has been named - unless I missed it. Shouldn’t be too difficult to do anyway.

The writer’s annoyance at the whistle is hilarious

Donation sent. Thanks for keeping this running

The first 3 quarters of that game were brutal to watch. Thankfully things picked up in the 4th and OT. Had the Niners won, game ball should have gone to special teamer Chris Conley who absolutely balled out.

The twitter account cited in the blog article as support for the author’s overall point thinks “Israel did 9/11” which should be problematic enough not to use them as any sort of authority. I’m not familiar with that blog but maybe that aligns with the blogger’s sympathies, and maybe not. Always worth checking sources though, especially on the cesspool of culture that is now Twitter/X. Anyway, I see the disclaimer from Max as less PC and more CYA. As we move further away from 70s cinema, new audiences may need more in the way of an introduction to set the stage so to speak.

Per the liner notes from Echoes of Indiana Avenue, for 6 straight years Wes worked at a radio parts factory from 7am-3pm every day, then had a gig from 9-2am, and then a late night gig from 2:30-5am. Appreciate the link for Buck Hill. He's someone I need to learn more about.

Wow. Similar to Wes Montgomery and probably a whole lot of musicians as well.

Agreed. I would love to see them dip into their 30s and 40 sets. Unless I’m mistaken they haven’t touched these decades in these recent reissue series. I think they may be underestimating the market potential for these.

If I didn’t have to work for a living I’d absolutely make an effort to do this. These digital discographies of most jazz legends are a near complete clusterfuck and a lot of clean up is necessary. Good luck to anyone that makes the attempt.

The Birdland 1953 set. It’s 3 CDs but I did digital only. Forgot to mention I also picked up the Sonny Stitt Acid Jazz & Kynard’s Afro-Disiac. Those Prestige sets are pretty cheap and give good reason to comb thru my OJCs and sell em off.

I ended up getting some Sun Ra, Bud Powell, Jaws and Steve Tibbets. I’m new to bandcamp so these were my first purchases.

AI mashups are going to be epic.

Yep! That’s got to be the OG album that my Savoy CD copy included with another record. Sleuthed! 🍻

lol his defense withered in crucial games. I’m surprised they went with Quinn but maybe the gig was a hard sell.

Yes! Pepper and Cooper on Savoy. This will be sleuthed soon. Good ears man Nice. Thank you

Washington hires Dallas’ DC Quinn as their new HC. My friends that follow them aren’t thrilled.

Ok, back for the rest @Rooster_Ties this sounds a lot like a Miles 70s band. Like it’s from one of those complete sets or something…hmmmm. I dig it though I can’t place it… @sidewinder Is this an Ian Carr track? Or possibly related? I like the rhythm section and really the whole tune. @webbcity Jazz Messengers-ish in the beginning but that’s not my guess. Sounds more current. Bass and drums are laying it down. Wish I could make an educated guess on that trumpet…sounds familiar. Nice tune 👍

Glad this track is being enjoyed by most. I’ll happily take the 3.5 stars! Ya’ll nailed Art Pepper which I thought would happen, and Jim got Bob Cooper too! It’s neither of their date however and it’s not a Paich record either. I’m betting this will be guessed sooner rather than later. Can I ask y’all what makes this sound west coast btw? I’m always trying to train my ears on this stuff and just want to know what y’all picked up on in that regard. I really love how they blend afrobeat into these rhythms and it seems like that’s a calling card of the London scene. I totally missed this one so thanks for including it here 🍻

I had to sleuth but it’s track 3 from this album. Now this is on my radar

Love this idea and happy to be a part of it! Cheers guys… @Big Al lovely tune and arrangement. Would this be bossa or bossa adjacent? Sounds like it might be the pianist’s date, but no guesses at the moment. @Dan Gould Bluesy of course! You’re the king of the jazz blues BFT tracks IMO. This is the kind of song I’d expect to hear at a music festival anywhere in the South. Creeping up on that 2:30 mark is when the groove really sets in and the sax player takes over. I’ll guess Lockjaw or maybe Cleanhead but certain I’m wrong. @danasgoodstuff Fantastic intro. Love the playing. Allen Toussaint maybe? @Eric that sharp attack on the horn here is familiar…hmmm…bassist is all over it too. Love how the song moves from a sax/bass duo to piano/drums duo in such a tight time span. Then they all come together toward the end for that post-bop groove. Nice one. @mjazzg oh yeah, this sounds like a Nubiya song or someone from the current London scene. That rhythmic blend sounds like an Afro-beat inspired shuffle and it is such a groove. Love this track. @randyhersom very soulful playing from that sax. Kind of Mobley-esque but it’s not him. I’ll come back later to finish up. Great collection so far!

I’ve not heard any of these before and haven’t seen most of the albums they were pulled from. Thanks for compiling this - enjoyed listening!

Just seeing EVD’s Hammond was nearly a religious experience. We almost didn’t get tickets as the tours are small. Thankfully some folks didn’t show for theirs and an alert employee let us know. Excellent site and tour. It would be my #1 draw for that entire city that I’d rec to anyone.

I’m really surprised the Chiefs stymied Lamar and that Ravens offense like they did. No one has done that for quite a while. Congrats to them and the 49ers for the comeback victory even though Detroit in the Super Bowl would have been awesome.

Not offended but honestly didn’t know if you were joking.
