jeffcrom Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 Gene Roland - Swingin' Friends (Brunswick stereo) Some pretty good friends on this one. Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 Watching ten or so minutes of the mainstream pop culture festivities on television at midnight was so bizarre that I needed something real to experience before going to bed. So like Leeway recently, I spun: Sam Rivers - Hues (Impulse) Almost half of this album has been reissued in more complete form on the Trio Live CD. But the rest hasn't, including the only six released minutes of the fabulous Rivers/Richard Davis/Warren Smith trio. Here's hoping that the 1971 Boston concert and the 1972 Rochester, Minnesota show will be issued in full one of these days. Quote

Wouldn't there be a possibility for another Mosaic Select, collecting all the Impulse trio material? Seems only Yale has appeared completely (on the "Trio Live" CD which I'm spinning right now).

Leeway Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 GIANT STEPS. John Coltrane. Atlantic. One of those great albums that are all of a piece and consistency, with all the component parts superb, forming one coherent whole. Is "flawless" too strong a word? I think not here. Quote

The complete 1973 Molde, Norway concert is also on Trio Live. Quote
Leeway Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 Another album I consider flawless. No, my personal list of such albums is not very long, but ASTRAL WEEKS is certainly on it. I've had the album since its release in 1968. Recently, I sprung for the Kevin Gray mastered 180 gram reissue pressed by RTI, which I am listening to now. Sounds great to my ears. Quote
Leeway Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 May I say, another great, indeed, flawless, album? Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Sam Rivers - The Tuba Trio, Vol. III (Circle), which was actually from the first set that night at the Bimhuis, and the Sam Rivers side of Flutes (Circle), which I think was from the same set, based on the liner notes from The Tuba Trio.
