jeffcrom Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Lou Donaldson - Cosmos (BN UA). I picked this up today, along with some other LPs. I had never explored Lou's Blue Note stuff between Scorpion (1970) and the One Night With Blue Note concert (1985) - some of it looks pretty grim. I don't much like the vocals by Essence very much, but otherwise, this is pretty cool; it's still by a small, funky band - no synths or overdubbed strings. And Macon, Georgia's gift to funk, Jerry Jemmott, is on bass. Quote
JohnS Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Lou Donaldson - Midnight Sun (BN Classic "rainbow" series). My copy has some sort of weird distortion in the right channel on parts of "Candy," the first track on side one. Anybody else encounter this, or is it just my copy? Same thing with my copy. Mine too, so I imagine they all the same. How's the Mosaic? Quote

That's odd Paul, I could see it....must be one of those disappearing images that are discussed in the Forum thread. Anyway, tried an image from another source. Quote

sidewinder Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 How's the Mosaic? Seems OK - although the balance on this track is sort of weird, with Lou panned well to the left and just the drums prominent and bass in the right channel. Quote
JohnS Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 Had to get some more Marion! MARION BROWN QUARTET: More Marion Brown - Good idea, great listening Leeway. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 Lou Donaldson - Midnight Sun (BN Classic "rainbow" series). My copy has some sort of weird distortion in the right channel on parts of "Candy," the first track on side one. Anybody else encounter this, or is it just my copy? Same thing with my copy. Has this ever been on cd on its own? To check the distortion I popped a cdr I'd made from my copy into the computer and the song titles came up. Quote

Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Still a spine-tingler. Oh yeah. Can only second those feelings. Marion had such great musical sensibility. I would love to see him get a big box Mosaic. Edited August 20, 2011 by Leeway Quote
Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 I had the pleasure of being able to spend some time with Virginia Genta saxophonist,and David Vanzan, drummer, also known as the Jooklo Duo, during their recent tour in the U.S. They are the nicest people you could meet. Watching petite Ms. Genta completely dominate a massive tenor sax is a thing of pleasure. They can really turn up the heat. LIVE IN LISBON, is a duo recording of Genta with free jazz-rock drummer Chris Corsano, recorded on a rooftop in Lisbon. Occasionally you can hear some birds chiming in. The sonics are not band considering the rooftop location. Genta and Corsano are FIERY! Quote

Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 AMALGAM: PRAYER FOR PEACE. 1969. No Business Reissue. Trevor Watts, Jeff Clyne, John Stevens, Barry Guy. Watts blows me away like he always does. Saw him touring this year with Veryan Weston. Both wonderful people. And they played great. Watts talked about Derek Bailey and John Stevens. Those guys were the fountainhead. Quote
