Looks like you're having a good time playing with your new turntable. Good for you.

I've liked the Stones for years but have been cautious about getting too many and weaker sets ( ie the earlier and later material ). I'd also avoided "Exile". I caved in last year and can't believe just how good it is. It's right up there with "Aftermath" and "Let it bleed". What other Stones' title did you keep? Between the Buttons. Probably not one of the top Stones records on anyone else's list.

Or it could be Reeds 'n Vibes with Gunter Hampel (IAI) Or the duo albums Marion Brown did with Mal Waldron. Though all of these have been issued on CD, The mystery continues. Calling BeBop ...

Bill Dixon was on BN in the 60s.

I'm just finishing up a spin of The Hawk Relaxes. I don't hear what Cyrille is doing as "ricky-tick, hotel band manner" at all. Rather, Chilton is on the right track - Cyrille sounds young and rambunctious - a little too ready with the fills on ballads; a little too ready to go into double time, but not consciously old-fashioned . "I'll Never Be the Same" contains his most idiosyncratic fills. I like music where every element is "right," but I also like music where one or more players are somewhat subversive and give the music a little "goose." I'm with Jeff on this one. Sounds to me like Hawk was particularly inspired, Burrell and Bright are playing suportive roles, and a young drummer was trying to goose things up a little. To say that he "almost sabotaged the date" is over the top, at least to my ears.

The Raw Harmonica Blues of Charlie Sayles (Dusty Road) This was his first record from 1976. Hadn't heard anything about him for years. Did a Google search and he's still playing and performing.

Thanks for posting those, Jim. Hadn't heard those before. Listening, I was reminded of late Billie or late Pres. The chops aren't the same as they once were, but the the sense of emotion is perhaps stronger than it ever was.
