  1. Those Freeman Trio tracks on Mosaic’s Condon & Freeman Decca and Commodore set are what I love about that box.
  2. Well, I'm wondering if you stumped everyone...
  3. More Hamilton. Euphoric and Revelation have some overlap with a few songs but no objection from me. Falling in love with this stuff. Going back a few decades now for this one:
  4. Ok, and I see that Schnittke wrote the score...nice.
  5. Chico Hamilton's Revelation from 2011. This one isn't in Discogs for some reason, and was hard to find on All Music. All About Jazz review is here. So far, of the late Hamilton's I've listened to this one is my favorite. Band includes Paul Ramsey, Nick Demopoulos, Evan Schwam, Mayu Saeki, and Jeremy Carlstedt. After this one, I went to: But the transition sucked and I couldn't get into it. Going back to some Chico for now and will try this again later.
  6. I love disc 3 from this one for some reason. Great set though.
  7. I'm not sure I'm following this correctly - are you saying that Roney would turn his back when photographers would try and take photos in the studio based on what things he misunderstood from Miles?
  8. Yeah, although it's hard to draw the line between some of the hard core punk and heavy metal these days but those communities are full of DIY enthusiasm. A friend of mine has and still loves/uses his mini-disks. I completely missed the boat as by that time I was using a portable Sony CD player and all music money was going toward keeping that tray active. I made mix tapes up until about 2003/2004 but probably stopped buying new cassettes in the mid-90s once I got that CD player. I didn't miss cassettes at all and when I got a car with a CD player in it, I never looked back (a CD-R capable player helped with that transition as well). I have no real nostalgia for cassettes at all, and streaming has dimmed my perception of CDs in a major way. I was already burning them into my iTunes and loading them on an iPod anyway for playing in the car and on walks. Goal this year is to seriously cull the CDs I have...hopefully I get the time to do it.
  9. A small, local record label specializing in punk currently produces many of their acts on cassette, and has done so for years. It's a trait that seems endemic within that DIY genre. I also notice those labels on Squidco that produce cassettes for the AV/noise improv artists/groups regularly sell out. There are definitely some tape enthusiasts out there.
  10. More late work from Chico Hamilton. This one released in '09 and again with Paul Ramsey on bass. Rest of the work done by Ian Young, Jack Kelso, Eddie Barbash, Evan Schwam, Gary DeNigris, Jeremy Carlstedt, George Bohanon and Jose James.
  11. I almost feel bad for the people who think they need to have these records so bad that they're paying arms & legs for them. Almost.
  12. I definitely don't have any guesses on artists, and guessing the theme will take another listen. Overall, good tunes & mix (great bass playing pretty much all the way through). Most were long-ish and took their time to develop. The first one really set the tone as I would guess it takes patience and good control over the clarinet to channel that type of expression. The only misses for me were the fourth track with the voices and the guitar tone on track 8. Thanks for putting this together.
  13. Bengals started dropping 8 back with a shadow on Mahomes in the 2nd half. Chiefs offense didn't/couldn't adjust. The lack of a quality rushing attack was definitely a weakness that got exposed.
  14. I saw a lead that he may have played bass for Kirk Franklin, so if that's the same guy then those may be accurate as well.
  15. On Believe, the song Christina really features Ramsey's bass. I don't see any further credits beyond Chico's 2014 The Inquiring Mind.
  16. Joining in on Chico with this one: Paul Ramsey, Andrew Hadro, Evan Scwam, Cary DeNigris, Jeremy Carlstedt, George Bohanon, and Fontella Bass round out the crew. Recorded in 2005 with one track from 2000. Released in 2006.
  17. I dig how you research and put these together; especially the inclusion of obscure artists and/or albums. Very much appreciated and enjoyed.
  18. Which movie is this one? And does it have subtitles?
  19. Man, the convo in this thread ain't easy to follow. So far I think the tally is: 1 - Bill Easley with the album linked to its All Music review that KD wrote 3 - John Board from I don't know the album 4 - Is this the Benny Waters track? 5 - Russell Garcia with the track linked to YT. I like this one better the first time I heard it. On follow up listening it's kind of meh. Unfortunately. 6 - Richard Hollyday doing his McLean impression on the album that's pictured in the above post (right? I actually have no idea) 7 - Capt. Growls but I'm not sure whose alias that is. 9 - Frank Foster & George Arvanitis live in France somewhere 10 - Well you Needn't...this has to be the Clayton Bros correct? James Spaulding on alto ID'd. 11 - Is this the Hal Singer track? Whoever recorded it shortchanged the sax player with this sound. I just keep thinking "Take some sudafed and advil and come back in 20 mins" 12 - Gene Harris' Little Light 13 - Percy France Track 8 is remaining a mystery so far right?
  20. Never listened to Bergonzi or Garzone before, so giving these a try.
  21. Excellent trio record. Patitucci is ridiculous on bass.

    "In charge" is definitely a description I think applies. Very much in control of the horn and expressive - there's a lot to love about his playing.

    Looks like he's touring with his trio this year: https://www.lewtabackin.com/itinerary.html And he just wrapped up some shows at Birdland in NYC. The second show on 1/7, per his website, included "Lew Tabackin Trio plus very special, mystery guest, tenor saxophonist. Not at liberty to give his name, but should be an amazing encounter" Anyone know who that was? Or did it not even happen?
