Leeway Posted November 25, 2011 Report Posted November 25, 2011 Indestructible, indeed! First heard it in the 60s and its power's undiminished. Had to visit with Lee Inspired by a recent thread: Quote
brownie Posted November 26, 2011 Report Posted November 26, 2011 The Great Jazz Trio 'Direct from L.A.' (EastWind Direct Mastering) Quote
sidewinder Posted November 26, 2011 Report Posted November 26, 2011 Stan Tracey 'Under Milk Wood Suite' (UK Columbia Lansdowne Series, mono) The Great Jazz Trio 'Direct from L.A.' (EastWind Direct Mastering) Nice one ! I'll dig that one out later. Chet Baker/Steve Houben (Carrère) Picked up Chet's 'Let's get Lost' DVD for £3 at the (not to be mentioned) place so that will be tonight's viewing. Quote

jeffcrom Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Bobby Naughton/Leo Smith/Perry Robinson - The Haunt (Otic) Beautiful! Thanks to Leeway for making me aware of this one and to Chuck for pointing me to Mr. Naughton's website, where it's for sale. Quote
jeffcrom Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Bud Shank - New Groove (PJ stereo). It's been awhile, and I had forgotten how good this album is. Quote
jeffcrom Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 After spinning Leroy Jones and his Hurricane Marching Brass Band of New Orleans (Lo An), I turned to the album Rebirth Brass Band founder Philip Frazier calls "The Bible:" Dirty Dozen Brass Band - My Feet Can't Fail Me Now (Concord) It's still stunning 25 years later. My copy, bought the week it was issued, is still in near-mint condition, but I might look into the Floating World remastered CD. It's always bothered me that you can barely hear the bass drum on the LP - that's arguably the most important instrument in a New Orleans brass band. (Read Louis Armstrong's comments about bass drummer Black Benny Williams in My Life in New Orleans.) Quote
jeffcrom Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Another New Orleans brass band LP so obscure that I couldn't find a picture online: Imperial Brass Band - A New Orleans Street Parade Live in Paris (Sandcastle). This was trumpeter Alvin Alcorn's band, and was a pickup band, rather than a working group, I believe. This was a mid-70's concert; I heard clarinetist Ralph Johnson at Preservation Hall a couple of times years later, and trombonist Freddie Lonzo many times. Quote

kh1958 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Henry Red Allen--Feelin' Good (Columbia mono two eyes). The inner sleeve was still sealed. Quote
Leeway Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Cecil Taylor, "Fly! Fly! Fly! Fly! Fly!" (a silly title that has probably harmed the album's reception). On the PA USA label, per the album jacket, MPS International under license to Pausa Records. Carefully and indeed lovingly recorded in Germany at the MPS studio, this is like having a private Cecil recital in your living room. Clear, warm, close recording, great presence. Cecil plays on an excellent MPS Bosendorfer Grand Piano Imperial. You can hear Cecil's amazing technique here (not to mention a bit of his humming). Generally overlooked Cecil album I think, well worth looking out for. Quote
Leeway Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 McCoy Tyner: ASANTE. Blue Note. Andrew White plays sax on this album. I checked out Mr. White's Wikipedia page. Turns out he is a native and long-time resident of Washington DC. Graduate of Howard University. He has played sax, oboe and electric bass professionally. Pretty interesting career. Quote
