jeffcrom Posted June 27, 2015 Report Posted June 27, 2015 Bunky Green/Willie Thomas - In Love Again (Mark). A kind of hard-to-find one, I think, from 1987. Mark is an "educational" label, which records lots of college ensembles, all-state bands, etc. Quote

Clunky Posted June 27, 2015 Report Posted June 27, 2015 Â Aldo Romano/ Jean Francois Jenny-Clark------Divieto Di Santificazione-----(Horo)Â Perhaps my only album of bass/drums. There is brief recitation of poetry. The whole thing has a melancholy air . Quote
sidewinder Posted June 28, 2015 Report Posted June 28, 2015 Bill Evans 'Interplay' (UK Riverside, mono)Â Quote
Clunky Posted June 28, 2015 Report Posted June 28, 2015 Manny Albam------ A Gallery of Gershwin------(Coral)Imaginative recasting of some familiar Gershwin tunes for orchestra and up to 8 hands. Bought primary for Eddie Costa. Eddie does get some of trademark lower register runs in here and there. The orchestra doesn't bog things down and it's jazzier than you might expect.  Albam as an arranger seems to be a mixed bag- he's no Gil Evans or Bill Holman.  I don't get a consistent style to his arrangements. He tries plenty and things are rarely straight down the middle. His run of Coral albums Jazz New York, The Blues is everybody's business, West Side Story and A Gallery of Gershwin make for an interesting body of work. WSS is probably the pick but they all hold interest. The Corals being Decca pressings leave lots to be desired , nice heavy glossy covers though. Quote
Clunky Posted June 28, 2015 Report Posted June 28, 2015 Next this classic. Mono UK Vogue , sounds great of course. Quote

Clunky Posted June 28, 2015 Report Posted June 28, 2015 The Jody Grind-----(BN Liberty)Â Been on the look out for this as it's another favourite which sounded a little dusty on CD. The Liberty original has a gatefold sleeve as a do a number of other Liberty sleeves of that era (New York Now and a Papa Lou title IIRC) Quote

jeffcrom Posted June 29, 2015 Report Posted June 29, 2015 The Early Benny Carter (Everest). Wonderful music from Carter's 1936-37 stint in England. This is an inferior, incomplete issue, but it's the way I first heard these recordings back in my college days, so I'm fond of it. And the sound is acceptable if you fold down the fake stereo into mono. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Never on CD.A friend's label was going to do an authorized version on CD (a two or three-disc set, can't remember)Â but the label ran out of money and the project was scuttled. Ornette had even agreed to do liner notes, if I recall correctly. Quote

Clunky Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015  Gary McFarland -----Point of Departure-----(Impulse) 1972 reissue but none the worse for that. Still has lovely heavy glossy GF sleeve. I've not played this in a while and it's a very good album. Quote
