paul secor Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Conjure: Music for the Texts of Ishmael Reed (American Clavé) Usually I have no use for all-star gatherings of this sort (Olu Dara, Allen Toussaint, David Murray, Taj Mahal, Billy Hart, Steve Swallow, Kenny Kirkland, Milton Cardona, Lester Bowie, and many others), but this one sounds just fine to me.

JSngry Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Some shenanigans going on with the mixes here...Side One almost sounds like a 70s RVG session! Quote

brownie Posted February 23, 2012 Report Posted February 23, 2012 Ted McNabb 'Big Band Swing' (Epic, mono) enjoying this after reading Marc Meyer's very interesting report on the album in yesterday's Jazz Wax My copy still has the $2,99 price tag from the Princeton Record Exchange where I bought this! A good investment it was! Quote

JSngry Posted February 23, 2012 Report Posted February 23, 2012 Not really digging any aspect of this one, but maybe a remixing would help. Anyway, whatever happened to Jean Turner? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted February 23, 2012 Report Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Giorgio Gaslini: Nuovi Sentimenti (New Feelings) - (EMI Italy) Excellent, excellent LP! Still haven't sourced the "original" (and its beautiful cover) but the 70s press sounds good enough for me. It's a shame this wonderful album isn't better known. Of the several Gaslini LPs I own, this is probably the most fully-realized sounding. Here's the original front cover artwork: Edited February 23, 2012 by clifford_thornton Quote

jeffcrom Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 Couldn't find a picture of this excellent New Orleans LP: De De Pierce and His New Orleans Stompers (Center). A relatively rare appearance of De De without his wife Billie; George Lewis and Jim Robinson are in the band, as is bassist Chester Zardis, whom I saw in Preservation Hall at age 90, a couple of months before he died. He sounded fantastic. Quote
