jazzbo Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 Tony Aless - Long Island Suite (Roost). I was totally unaware of this 1955 album, but it's good. Nick Travis, Dave Schildraut, Billy Bauer are on hand, as are trombonists "Moe and Joe" - aka Jay and Kai. It has had a Japanese EMI CD issue, but otherwise has resisted digitization. Another spin of this excellent and intriguing album. Given how it looked when I bought it, I'm still amazed at how relatively good it sounds. I've got the Toshiba cd. Neat session.Right now Found a sealed copy. Wish it sounded better, but I really love the music. Quote

jeffcrom Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) Freddie Roulette - Sweet Funky Steel (Janus) Que es? Yes, I wondered, too... MG It's cool, is what it is - lap steel-playing bluesman Freddie Roulette playing instrumental R & B in LA, 1973. It was produced by Harvey Mandel, who plays on a couple of tracks. Among the other sidemen are Sugarcane Harris and Victor Conte, who played bass with Tower of Power and later became a "sports nutritionist" who helped lots of athletes with their doping.

Chuck Nessa Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 McCoy Tyner - Sahara (Milestone) crappy sound, great music. Quote
Cactus Bob Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 Is that an EP? It only looks about 7" square. MG "1365412670">>Looks Fishy huh? It's a CD cover. I never understood why folks melted their discs just to take a shot with their valves. I didn't want to sacrifice a good 8 Track Tape. Next . . . . Ammons & Stitt! ~ You Talk That Talk!

jeffcrom Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 McCoy Tyner - Sahara (Milestone) crappy sound, great music. Yep - from the first notes my thought was, "Who thought that this was what a piano is supposed to sound like?" Quote
