Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 Max Roach +4 = Newport (deep groove Mercury). I still can't get into Draper's tuba solos. They just don't sound... musical? Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Thelonious Monk ~ The Man I Love Black Lion Al McKibbon, bass; Art Blakey, drums My favorite store "Revolver Records" in Phoenix opened a new location near me. Prices are excellent. Picked this up for 3.99 in very good condition. I think that session was recorded at the old Chappell Music on New Bond Street, London. Small studio - on the upper floor of a larger music/music instrument store. When I popped in years ago and saw how inocuous it was it left me gob-smacked that the great Monk had actually recorded there. Chapell Music alright. November '71. That would have been cool to have been there! The lp sounds really good. Chappells was one of the three shops I used to buy stuff from in 1961/2, when I worked around the corner by Berkeley Square. Today, two not quite live albums, both partly live, partly studio John Coltrane - Live at Birdland - Impulse (Jasmine) Slim & the Supreme Angels - More than alive - Nashboro (no usable image on web) Then Les McCann & Gerald Wilson - McCann/Wilson - Pacific Jazz (Fontana UK with REALLY naff cover art!) Pilgrim Travelers - Shake my mother's hand - Specialty Willis Jackson - West Africa - Muse (one of the least naff covers ever!) MG Quote

mjzee Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 The Capitol Adderleys have been shamefully neglected on CD. Max Roach +4 = Newport (deep groove Mercury). I still can't get into Draper's tuba solos. They just don't sound... musical? One album-note writer put it nicely - it was early days for jazz tuba. I think it's like seeing an elephant dancing - it's not that it's dancing gracefully, but you're supposed to admire that it's dancing at all. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Yes, this has been discussed in the "What are you listening to now?" thread. The Capitol Adderleys have been shamefully neglected on CD. Edited March 25, 2013 by jazzbo Quote

jeffcrom Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 Rampart Street Paraders - Dixieland, My Dixieland (Columbia 6-eye mono). Okay, I already feel defensive about posting that I'm listening to this 1954 dollar-bin find. But it's pretty good. I bought it because among the personnel are two of my favorite dixieland/swing musicians: Eddie Miller and George Van Eps, and I knew that the others were solid players. And the album is solid mainstream/dixieland, and occasionally more than that. A dollar well spent. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 This morning Buddy Johnson - Go ahead and rock - Roulette Buddy's last album, a couple of years before he died. Mosty re-recordings of his earlier material but some new gems. Recent posting here reminded me I hadn't listened to this in a good while The Jack Wilson Quartet - Atlantic (Discovery) MG Quote

Nice sound too. Quote
