jeffcrom Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Today's vinyl, so far: Bobby Watson - No Question About It (BN) Oregon - Friends (Vanguard). The friends are Bennie Wallace, pianist Larry Karush, and percussionist David Earle Johnson. Don Pullen/Chico Freeman/Fred Hopkins/Bobby Battle - Warriors (Black Saint) Kind of all over the place, in a way, but it's all jazz, baby. Quote
jeffcrom Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Dexter Gordon - Manhattan Symphonie (Columbia) Basie Jam #2 (Pablo). Basie, Lockjaw, Benny C., Terry, Al Grey, etc. Hells, yeah! Quote
JSngry Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Don Pullen/Chico Freeman/Fred Hopkins/Bobby Battle - Warriors (Black Saint) That album can try the stamina if you're not up for it, but if you are....WHOO-HOOOOOOO!!!!! Quote
JohnS Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Don Pullen/Chico Freeman/Fred Hopkins/Bobby Battle - Warriors (Black Saint) That album can try the stamina if you're not up for it, but if you are....WHOO-HOOOOOOO!!!!! I saw this band in London at a time when the jazz scene was very dull, dominated by soul and funk. It proved that jazz was actually alive and well! Edited June 9, 2012 by JohnS Quote
sidewinder Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Today's vinyl, so far: Bobby Watson - No Question About It (BN) Another group I have good memories of seeing live. On deck - Dick Morrissey 'Storm Warning' (UK Mercury, mono). This one is a match for anything of that era on Blue Note. Quote
BillF Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 On deck - Dick Morrissey 'Storm Warning' (UK Mercury, mono). This one is a match for anything of that era on Blue Note. Ah, yes. One of the good ol' good uns! Quote
mjazzg Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 opening track is so joyous previously listening in response to the Brackeen thread and realising why the news of his possible current situation made such an impact Quote
sidewinder Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Ian Carr/Nucleus 'Elastic Rock' (Vertigo, swirl) Quote
jazzbo Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 I read such good things about the new LP reissues of the Hendrix catalog from Columbia that I tried some out at bargain prices. Amazing sound! Axis sounds astonishingly good. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Bar music! I used to have Betters' hit single 'Do anything you wanna' back in the day. It was a real groove and I've always regretted not keeping it. MG Quote

colinmce Posted June 10, 2012 Report Posted June 10, 2012 This AM: Bill Evans Trio - Live (Verve, 1964) Billy Usselton Sextet - His First Album (Kapp, 1957) The Evans features what might be his most textbook playing. I like it though. The Usselton is nice. This is the original pressing, but it was reissued by Fresh Sound. Intriguing front line of tenor, bass clarinet, and trombone. Well arranged, but not overarranged, with Usselton sounding kind of like Paul Desmond on the larger horn. But just kind of. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 10, 2012 Report Posted June 10, 2012 Huh - I don't know Usselton at all! Now: Albert Mangelsdorff - Folk Mond & Flower Dream - (CBS Germany) Quote
