jeffcrom Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Steve Kuhn - Ecstacy (ECM) Clarke/Boland Big Band - Sax No End (MPS). Not with this cover, unfortunately - mine's half of a cheap two-fer. But what a great album. Quote
brownie Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Johnny Hodges 'The Eleventh Hour' (Verve, stereo) Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Earlier today: Johnny Littlejohn - Funky From Chicago (Bluesway). Kind of battered, but I've never come across another copy. Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Eric Quincy Tate - Drinking Man's Friend (Capricorn). Stripped-down Southern blues/rock from my youth. During the summer of 1974 I must have spent 20 bucks playing "Brown Sugar" (not the Stones song) over and over on the jukebox. Quote
JSngry Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Johnny Hodges 'The Eleventh Hour' (Verve, stereo) Love that one, it's one of those "stealth" MOR records where they make you think it's all polite, but it's really not that at all. Oliver Nelson is the culprit, blame him! Quote
Bill Nelson Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Dumped 'Eleventh Hour' at the last Atlanta Record Show. It's irritatingly uneven. Eight years later, Nelson and Hodges reunited for the masterpiece, 'Three Shades of Blue'. (Less than two months afterwards, Hodges checked out in May, 1970.) Quote
brownie Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Hampton Hawes 'The Sermon' (Contemporary) Recorded - by Roy DuNann - in 1958, released in 1987! Quote
Clunky Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Following Jeff's very interesting post re Oliver Victors. Always liked "Struggle Buggy" largely because it was on one of the first jazz records I ever heard. Quote
Clunky Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Earl Hines Grand Terrace Band Victor LPV 512, ace Budd Johnson tenor sax solo on XYZ as hard a swinging a tune as anything form Basie with Johnson sounding like a slightly more muscular Prez. Great transfers. Quote
Clunky Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) slight change of style, I like this one, Mats is not completely over the top and the music has a reflective quality. Live recording from 2009 in Vilnius Barry Guy Mats & Gustafsson Sinners ,rather than saints NoBusiness Edited March 2, 2012 by Clunky Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 The Immortal King Oliver (Milestone). No need to ever play side one again - the Jelly Roll Morton duets and the Creole Jazz Band Paramounts are readily available in better sound. But side two has some rare QSR recordings featuring Oliver as sideman with Clarence Williams and Sara Martin. Quote

sidewinder Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 Horace Silver 'Six Pieces Of Silver' (BN 47W6rd side 1/NY USA side 2/DG both sides, ie. early UK import, mono) Quote
BillF Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 Horace Silver 'Six Pieces Of Silver' (BN 47W6rd side 1/NY USA side 2/DG both sides, ie. early UK import, mono) Lovely music! Not so sure about the photo, though - Horace as member of the dirty mac brigade! JohnS told me that Alan Barnes turned up for a gig recently in a Columbo-style raincoat. Perhaps there's a jazz tradition there! Quote

brownie Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Ahmed Abdul Malik 'East Meets West' (RCA, Living Stereo) Edited March 3, 2012 by brownie Quote
BillF Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 It all began here: Ah, yes! I'm sure I recall a composition by a British jazzman called "Pipe and Gannex", but I can't trace it. Anyone remember that one? Google just gives me a pub in (appropriately) Prescot! Quote
Clunky Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 Prompted by JLH's thread, spun this again. It really is a fine album, every bit as ambitious as any Gil Evans score. I think this will make for a fantastic reissue by JLH. The sound of my copy PJ-77 is really good and I can well imagine a fine remastering in stereo will be even better. Coker sounds great on tenor and I agree there's a Warne like thing in his playing Quote
Clunky Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 First Marquee Moon Television - prompted by an interesting article in Uncut next Surrealistic Pillow Jefferson Airplane- UK stereo version- which IIRC is quite different in track listing cf. the Amercan issue Quote
