Shawn Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 For the most part, this album just did not work for me. It cries out for Miles tough genius: I love it, but then again I'm a fan of Holdsworth so that has alot to do with it I'm sure. Quote

jeffcrom Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) The Right-to-Profit State and All That Jazz. This not-very-promising-sounding promotional LP, recorded in 1967 and put out by the Louisiana Department of Commerce and Industry, is one of my favorite New Orleans albums of the 60's. The band is fabulous - Alvin Alcorn, Jack Delaney, Harry Shields, Armand Hug, Danny and Blue Lu Barker, Chester Zardis and Louis Barbarin. Harry Shields, unlike his more famous brother Larry, never left New Orleans for any appreciable length of time, but I think that he's a far superior player to Larry; one of the greatest of all New Orleans clarinetists, in fact. He has a hair-raising solo on "Tin Roof Blues;" its impact makes me think of Sonny Rollins' "Misterioso" solo from Volume Two. Blue Lu Barker sings one song: "Basin Street Blues." She told me that she had to leave the session early to close on the Sere Street house where the Barkers lived the rest of their lives. I spent a wonderful morning there in 1992.

Leeway Posted January 6, 2012 Report Posted January 6, 2012 For the most part, this album just did not work for me. It cries out for Miles tough genius: I love it, but then again I'm a fan of Holdsworth so that has alot to do with it I'm sure. That's cool. Holdsworth, and Alan Pasqua too; thought this would be killer, especially since I love so much other Tony Williams music. But in this case, it sounds to me like Electric Miles minus Miles. Difference is what makes the world go round. Speaking of which..... Sam Rivers Winds of Manhattan - Colours (Black Saint) This is definitely my least favorite Sam Rivers album. You need not tell me I am wrong, as my friends have already done that I just don't enjoy it very much. I think SR is mostly (not always) at his best in trio formations. At least that is where I like him most. Quote

Wouldn't dream of telling you you're wrong - although I seem to remember that I may have done just that a few months ago about something, but I don't remember what. To me, though, Rivers' writing is as important as his playing. I'm listening to Inspiration by the All-Star Orchestra right now, and am enjoying it more than ever. Quote

What can I say? I had a hard time even getting through the LP. I'll give it another listen at some point and see what happens. Strange how this album ever came together, but I think it works much better than could have been predicted. Geffen LP. Quote
