Duke-Ellington-New-Orleans-Suite-362907.jpg

Following on from the Spike Hughes 78s earlier today , a natural progression to one of the best by the Duke. Had the CD for years and it's been a favourite but this LP edition recently purchased for £1 sounds wonderful.

re- muddy sounding larry young liberty/heaven on earth

no, not just your copy. frankly this is how a lot of the period blue notes sound. espically noticible on our modern eqipment, compared to what people were playing these on in 1967.

almost every time, im okay with it. the sound of the bass espically still will sound much more lifelike that on a sterile mcmaster cd.

scored this recently, great lp. cant say i knew it existed. i think vik was still cutting 78s at this time. (they went really, really late). would love it if the album had a single!

Dannie Richmond- (Gatemouth)- decent hard bop date,nothing extraordinary but the side long Cumbia and Jazz Fusion gets pretty heated. Good sound from RVG. Not come across Gatemouth until I picked this up in NYC recently.

Adam Makowicz - Naughty Baby (RCA Novus)

I'm going through my LPs, trying to decide which ones to get rid of to free up some shelf space, and this one got placed in the "maybe" stack. I got it years ago, after reading Max Harrison's praise, but only listened to it a couple of times. Well, I'm not sure what didn't connect back then, because I really enjoyed it today. It's a program of Gershwin, with Charlie Haden on bass (sometimes joined by Dave Holland) and Al Foster on drums. Makowicz's playing is really interesting - he leaves lots of spaces for someone with so much technique.

I hope I find some stuff I'm willing to get rid of....
