jeffcrom Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) San Antonio Jazz (IAJRC). This fascinating album has the complete recordings of Don Albert's big band on side one and a well-chosen selection of tunes by Boots & His Buddies on side two. I've always loved the Albert big band; he was from New Orleans, and his band was full of Crescent City musicians: Alvin Alcorn, Louis Cottrell, Herb Hall (Edmond's brother), guitarist Ferdinand Dejan, and even the venerable Jimmy Johnson, who was the bassist in Buddy Bolden's band 35 years earlier. (He's in the famous picture of the Bolden band.) And here's the first recording of of "True" (aka "You Don't Love Me"), which was a hit for New Orleanian Paul Gayten in 1947. And the great James Booker recorded a hair-raising version at Montreux in 1978. Edited February 15, 2014 by jeffcrom Quote

mjazzg Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 the Ornette Coleman Quartet - This is Our Music [1961, Atlantic] possibly the best band photo cover ever. And the music isn't bad either Quote
Clunky Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) Bought today, light scuffs but plays very nicely. Turns out on getting home that I've all the material on 78 already. I'll be careful not to buy the SHM-CD . Edited February 15, 2014 by Clunky Quote

Who benefited more from this meet-up? I did, for sure. i think this is much better than many would have you believe. At least I like it. Good enough for me to buy it recently on CD for the extra takes. (I first knew it in 1960 on the Riverside LP). Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 I have an original stereo issue of this lp; it's a nice session but sound wise could have been better... Quote

Who benefited more from this meet-up? I did, for sure. i think this is much better than many would have you believe. At least I like it. And check out the Wilbur Ware's solo on "Decidedly" - the mono take, if I remember correctly. It's one of the great, odd bass solos in jazz. It's basically a "walking" solo, but at some point he turns the beat around so that he's walking on the upbeats. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 15, 2014 Report Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) Hank Mobley 'Roll Call' (BN 47W63rd mono, DG side 1) I have a Japanese copy of that Mulligan Sextet album in the racks too. Will have to dig it out. Edited February 15, 2014 by sidewinder Quote

These albums along with "transformation" and "penetration" are outstanding IMHO Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Rendell/Carr Quintet 'Dusk Fire' (UK Columbia, mono) Lovely album! I just have the Japanese pressing on Philips but it's in stereo and not a single crack or pop to be heard so I won't complain too much Quote
JohnS Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 The UK London issue. I had this at one time. Quote

I just have the Japanese pressing on Philips but it's in stereo and not a single crack or pop to be heard so I won't complain too much Never heard a copy of the the Japanese reissue LP - only the BGO CD, which sounds pretty good to my ears. Fortunately, this copy was bought before prices hit the stratosphere. Edited February 16, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
