To any jazz fan who's thinking about spending big bucks on a Bird vanity item: Instead, please consider spending a comparable amount of money on Parker recordings that you will donate to schools and libraries in your area. Or on other activities to foster and propagate jazz in your community.

Just buy the regular kind, and leave it on the salad bar for a day or two. -

Boogie Woogie and Stride recommendations
Spontooneous replied to TheMusicalMarine's topic in Recommendations
For boogie-woogie, don't forget Pete Johnson! The first volume on Classics will do very nicely. The sides with Joe Turner, Buster Smith and Hot Lips Page give me religion. -
Thanks, Lazaro. I was wondering how long it would take for somebody to agree or disagree. I was listening to it quite casually when the notion hit me, about eight bars into the form. And I didn't hear anything after that point to dissuade me. The whole form is there pretty clearly, it seems to me. I'm ready to make a "Hawk Plays Monk" compilation CD with this one, the "I Mean You" with Fats and JJ, and some Riverside tracks.

The famous pic of Monk, Parker, Mingus and Haynes (sorry I couldn't turn up a better scan quickly). Suppose THESE four guys had decided to form a working group and call it the Modern Jazz Quartet.... -
I really enjoyed their "Simplify Your Life With Brian Ferneyhough."

And Stump Evans, on those great Jelly Roll sides.

Me for Bartok, Shostakovich 1, Carter, Schoenberg and the Bridge "Phantasm." Overlooked gem: A brief concerto by Willem Pijper. Sounds kind of like the Ravel Concerto in G, though more compressed and less fizzy. Pre-dates the Ravel by a couple of years. Another overlooked one: Aaron Copland's. Another: Martinu wrote five piano concertos, but the Fourth is the one that really sticks with me. Una mas: Symanowski's Fourth Symphony is a piano concerto-lite in disguise.

Two Jarretts I wouldn't be without: "Belonging." I really love the European quartet. Maybe I'm crazy. "Dark Intervals." An ECM solo disc that gets overlooked. Very intense -- and, yes, darker than most Jarrett.
-
So is "Gesualdo for Lovers."

A Little Gem That Gets Less Littler & More Gemier
Spontooneous replied to JSngry's topic in Recommendations
I think Knepper was in Claude Thornhill's band about this time. That might have influenced these things too. (A friend of Free For All and me, Arch Martin, was the other trombone with Thornhill. The section had two trombones and a french horn, he says.) -
Ack! Now I have to go get some Niehaus records. Darn it, Larry!

A local store didn't recognize the artists' names on these, so they failed to jack up the prices as they would for a scratched-up "Sidewinder" or "Miles Ahead". Therefore, for $3 apiece, I just acquired lovely copies of: Moods for Girl and Boy, Harry Carney The Unforgettable Guitar of Hank Garland

That's a stumper. Maybe Eric Schneider? (I almost said David Schnitter, but he's got a new album...)
-
Jackie McLean? (If not Red Rodney.)

Who you used to NOT get, but now do
Spontooneous replied to slide_advantage_redoux's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Rooster Tom's gonna hurt me for this... Joe Henderson. His solos on the Blue Note classics struck me as abrupt, abrasive and short-breathed when I first heard them. Only later did I come to the heart and the humor. (P.S.: "Point of Departure" isn't a very good way to sell Andrew Hill. "Black Fire" and "Shades" are the ones that got me.)
