roach_max~~_chattahoo_101b.jpg

Max Roach - Chattahoochee Red (Columbia). Never on CD, as far as I know. I usually spin this one every year on MLK day; the first track mixes excerpts from Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech with Roach's drums. It's kind of magical, and the rest of the album is equally excellent.

Hugh Ragin - METAPHYSICAL QUESTION - with John Lindberg, Thurman Barker. CECMA LP.

I bet that's a good listen?

It is, although not a grab you by the lapels album. I think Side 2 is the stronger. I've listened to this several times now, and like it more each time. There is that sense of higher artistic aims about it.

Just listened to the long 18 min title track 'on youtube. Tasty - Lindberg and Barker really lay it down. You feel side two is even stronger - definitely added to the 'wants list'

Savoy Jazz LP reissue of the original Savoy issue (as "The Futuristic Sounds of Sun Ra"). Besides some excellent music by Sun Ra and the Arkestra, this is a really good sounding LP (produced by Tom Wilson). Surprisingly ( to me anyway), the reissue carries liner notes by Milo Fine.

Earlier:

Henry Threadgill Sextett - Rag, Bush & All (Novus)

Warne Marsh - The Art of Improvising (Revelation)

Tyrone Washington - Natural Essence (BN Liberty)

Still not totally sold on the last one. A bit stiff to my ears. I suppose I'm in the minority there...
