Dub Modal

Didn’t put 2 & 2 together on geography there but definitely interesting and appropriate! also looking forward to the next season of this series.

Those lyrics are fantastic

He rich

I read more nuance in his statement. Rather than a broad slagging of the genre, it reads like he’s saying club shows he’s seen aren’t what he’d reference as jazz. Maybe he’s been seeing some hacks or hobbyists to come to this conclusion, or maybe whatever style being performed just wasn’t to his liking. He actually comes across as possibly having familiarity with the style and perhaps having an opinion on what he likes as “jazz.”

Interesting. Thanks 👍

How is quad different from surround?

Actually, it may have only been on Apple Music since the show was on Apple TV.

Defiant Jazz was the playlist Helly picked as a reward in Apple TVs Severence. That playlist then showed up on streaming platforms last year. Good set and awesome to hear McPhee getting promoted like that.

Ah, well it'll be interesting to see who it is.

Then my final guess will be Martino, even though it doesn't really sound like him.

I'll take June 👍

1 - Psych elements on that guitar like Szabo, but it's not his sound. Getting some Coryell vibes though. Definite mood track. Really enjoy that psych rock lean. 2 - All right - interesting. The band is jamming. Drummer has a hard time in spots but the synths carry it. 3 - Ok tune. Organist carries it by handling that bass line. 5 - This is like if Bobo Stenson wanted to swing. Strong presence from that pianist. Bass & drums are locked in and follow whoever it is on the keys into the song. 6 - Love the melody on the head. 70s tune? Not so in love with the bass solo even though they're obviously very good. 7 - Not the first song in this BFT with that 70s rock groove. The pianist takes em there but I sense the band doesn't necessarily need to follow him. They do though. Works out ok. 8 - Some real beautiful moments here. The sax (soprano?) has a great sound. 9 - Helluva triumphant opening segued into a noir-ish piece. Mood! Bass clari stealing the show until the sax shows up. 10 - I like it, and like what the sax player is doing. Would almost prefer the pianist not be there. 12 - Another good one. Nice bari sax on another noir composition. 13 - Dig the trio. Giraldi-esque playing. Good song. Thanks for putting this together! Coffey?

Ended at $6100. Someone just paid Carolina Soul’s rent for the month.

Track 3 vibes player sounds a bit sloppy actually. Like they know what they're trying to play but having some trouble getting there. Red Norvo? Bass sounds like some Pablo recording shit. Good player but damn... Track 8 vibist (?) in contrast runs clean, definitely executing what they want to do and you can hear the melody coming through. Not exactly "better" than track 3's player but definitely different. Not ready for a guess here just yet.

Damn Pryor is shocking. Nice set!

If they had to clip a track to fit it on the CD then they really should have done 2 CDs. Maybe better to deal with complaints related to too much space across a set than otherwise.

Unreal and a total bummer

Yeah, I’ve bid on a few and won some from the cheap seats in the past. Their good rep has been well earned. They have albums from all genres that will creep into the thousands just about every auction.

Carolina Soul has great eBay presence and their auctions tend to run high because of a large following that includes international customers. I just saw this today and will watch it just to see how much it goes for.

Man that sucks. They should have made this a double CD then.

Import CDs has sold out of the SHM CD. Not that I was buying that, but goes to show there’s an audience out there for these albums which is a positive.

I didn’t realize they had been acquired by Sapporo. At that point they’re just a part of a portfolio.

Indeed. This is great news!

That’s really not true at all.

Hoffman is good for the classifieds.
