Dub Modal

Interesting. So the only domestic issues that contain the saw solo are the original US LPs and current streaming versions.

Thank you! I hadn’t gotten around to comparing the Apple Music one yet.

Inquiring minds…

Ok, just found this thread after @JSngry put me on notice about this saw solo. Was it indeed Waits or Workman playing it? I don't think this snafu is widely known is it? If known, it doesn't seem to be much discussed. This may not be Lee's most popular album, so maybe it just hasn't popped up on the radar that frequently...? Definitely shouldn't have been mixed out, and this is perfect for a reissue remedy with what BN has going on in their current programs.

Here's a great story about a record collection as legacy: https://waltermagazine.com/art-and-culture/lasting-legacy-veola-mclean-record-collection/?utm_campaign=later-linkinbio-sorrystate&utm_content=later-26564165&utm_medium=social&utm_source=linkin.bio&mc_cid=a326bd8ab7&mc_eid=2606b5c732 Local store owner bonds with a collector over a shared passion in education, so the store owner buys the lot (over 5,000 LPs) and sales proceeds go to a scholarship fund.

Indeed. Similarly, Billy Higgins' drumming frequently makes me stand up and move. Totally an emotional experience which I'd say is a type of joy. And not the only Billy Stewart song that brings emotion, but it's on my mind at the moment:

Tunes that hit me all the time: Duke & Coltrane's version of In a Sentimental Mood Duke Pearson's Moana Surf Gregory Isaac's Slave Master, Universal Tribulation & Slave Market Kiddus I's Security In the Streets & Harder Marley's Redemption Song still hits so hard, but also that live Slave Driver version and so many other songs from him & the Wailers Bunny's Bright Soul Tosh's Burial Garnett Silk's Mama Africa, Zion in a Vision & Fill Us Up with Your Mercy Albert King's version of The Sky Is Crying Sizzla's No Other Like Jah Pete Rock & CL Smooth's T.R.O.Y. Carlton Jackson's History Hugh Mundell's Red Gold & Green Miles' & Monk's version of Bags Groove I'll leave it bookended by jazz but there are so many more. Emotional to me doesn't necessarily mean tears btw, but includes a strong feeling of being uplifted or getting chills but also moved into that deep melancholy

Much respect for him. First popped up on my radar on that Hemphill "Chile New York" album.

Also noted in that it doesn't seem there was never a Japanese LP made, only a German LP and US/Euro/Japan CDs (and of course, an 8-track!). Seems prime material for these current BN reissue programs.

That was a great opener for this session. Time constraints kept me from going through the whole thing but I'll revisit. It's one of those "radio" style playlists where the songs aren't shown in succession, only what's playing at that moment. Maybe after some time period they convert to listing out the playlist? I had to write these down as they popped up...

Oh yeah. Warren Smith is so good.

Noted

Well, if track 7 isn't Jim Hall then I'm guessing Barney Kessel. Probably incorrect too but I can't think of anyone else at the moment that might match.

For whatever reason this is my first listen to this album and it's phenomenal. Definitely leaves a "what could've been" thought in my mind. It doesn't look this has ever been reissued with alternate tracks, and so I wonder if those possibly exist? If so, would be great to see those released at some point.

Track 7: Is that a Jim Hall live date? Great tune.

I was listening to a new DJ Spinna radio show of "London Jazz-funk" Some of the tracks: London Town - Light of the World Escapee - Daniel Casimir Rude Movements - Sun Palace Movin' On - Outside Sphynx - Brand New Heavies Walk in the Night - Paul Hardcastle You Gotta Get It - Congress Night Birds - Shakatak summer grooves - Mirage Mr moon - Jamiroquai Parisienne Girl - Incognito Can't Keep Holding On - Second Image Then moved on to:

Per the CDC, community transmission rates are still substantial to high across the majority of US population centers. Likely will be more variants, with long-term effects still largely unknown. Hopefully advancements are made in treating and understanding this disease so that future cases years & decades down the road don't lead to more unnecessary deaths.

Sign me up for long-form, live Mingus. I love that live in Bremen set, big time. Looks like I need to pick up both the Jazz in Detroit/Strata & Ronnie Scott's.

1 - Love the tempo and energy. Total concentration from that bass player. Super clean production. Pretty sure I've heard this one before but can't name it. 2 - Nice trio, live recording. Haynes on drums? Sounds like a standard but I can't tell which. 3 - This reminds me of a Freddie Hubbard CTI date. Pretty sure this is a standard too. 4 - Take the A Train... Will have to come back for the rest later...

Thanks for putting this together. It's a reference point for me now, with the recorded firsts - very interesting! I think this is the 2nd BFT that I've participated in where there was an early Cecil Taylor song included and I really liked both of them. Clearly I enjoy his early recordings...

I'm in an early-ECM mood. These two are great for scratching that itch.

Felt the same way after listening to it. It's about as close to rock as I come these days. The groove they got into was great.

Mal Waldron with Fred Braceful, Eberhard Weber and Jimmy Jackson, The Call from '71. Not sure why I never listened to this before as it's phenomenal. Two songs, each stretching over the side of an LP and these guys really dig in. Late to the party on this one, but glad I made it.

Indeed. Rooster Ties’ collection of obscure 70s jazz by no names sounds like it could make a helluva comp.

Well I'm stumped on guessing a theme.
