sidewinder Posted August 24, 2014 Report Posted August 24, 2014 Hilton Ruiz 'Strut' (RCA Novus) Yikes what a "classy" cover haha... Nice album - where else can you hear Sam Rivers with Mongo Santamaria ! Nat Adderley 'Sayin' Somethin'' (UK Atlantic mono - Polydor pressing) Side 1 a bit ropey with Tony Hatch covers etc. but side 2 kicks ass.. Quote

jeffcrom Posted August 25, 2014 Report Posted August 25, 2014 Sheila Jordan - Body and Soul (Japanese CBS/Sony). With a great band - Frank Wess, Kenny Barron, Harvie Swartz, and Ben Riley. Quote
jeffcrom Posted August 25, 2014 Report Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) The Original Klezmer Jazz Band (House of Menorah). A 1984 klezmer/dixieland fusion offering. Only fair-to-middling, despite the presence of some big klezmer names like Henry Sapoznik and Pete Sokolow. Later: Why would anyone imitate one of those horrible 1920s Ted Lewis vocals? Ouch.

jeffcrom Posted August 25, 2014 Report Posted August 25, 2014 The Klezmorim - Notes From Underground (Flying Fish). After spinning the disappointing new find above, I wanted to hear this album - similar in intent, but much better. It was recorded the same year as the Original Klezmer Jazz Band disc, and even has some of the same tunes, but it's a mix of serious and good-natured, while the OKJB is often just silly and forgettable.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted August 27, 2014 Report Posted August 27, 2014 Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder (Blue Note/Music Matters 33 rpm). This is the first in this series that just hasn't imoressed me. Don't get me wrong... it sounds very nice but it just doesn't stand out from other issues I have heard. It's also the second (out of 10) titles that arrived with dish warp on side 1. The first one was much worse (I exchanged it) but this is still not good. I may exchange it. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 Humbi & Handa of Angola (rec. Gerhard Kubik) - Musee Royale de l'Afrique Centrale (BE) Comes with a sizable book of musicological analysis and is pressed very cleanly and quietly. Quote
