jeffcrom Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 :tup :tup Buncha thumbs up on this one - one of the best of that Time-Life Series. For those who don't know, this is Frank Teschemacher's complete recorded output, plus a side of "possibles." For me right now: Sonny Rollins - The Cutting Edge (Milestone) Montreux, 1974. Not considered to be one of his best, and it's not. But it's pretty good for this period, and I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 I bought Going Places by The Tijuana Brass when it was brand new in Nov. of '65. I'm sure I still have it in a box somewhere, but I haven't heard it in decades. I've just now finished listening to it at lala (before it goes away the end of this month), and I was struck by what a workout the drummer went through. I never appreciated before how important he was to the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I hope your copy is mono. The stereo sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's odd, since Alpert ran the record company and could have used whatever musicians he wanted (I assume). Or was it that he didn't start touring until he had got four hit LPs under his belt?

MG Actually, I always thought it was fairly common for big name musicians to have separate touring bands. TJB started as a studio project, so that may have been a part of it. Maybe it took a while for the personnel to stabilize and for the band to fall into a consistent groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But most bandleaders weren't owners of record companies. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
