Packing day, we'll be off tomorrow for three weeks in the North East of Germany. "Good spirit" says it. A favorite of mine. Quote

paul secor Posted July 22, 2016 Report Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Jug Band Blues - Jim Kweskin & the Jug Band with Sippie Wallace and Otis Spann (Mountain Railroad) Despite the billing on the cover, this is a Sippie Wallace record, with fine backing by Jim Kweskin's Jug Band and Otis Spann (on four tracks). Spann plays some magnificent piano. On the CD reissue on Drive, Mark Humphrey's notes tell the story that Vanguard, the Kweskin Band's label at the time, rejected this record. Given some of the music that they did release, it's hard to understand where their ears were at. This is a wonderful record. The CD notes also contain an interesting anecdote of Louis Armstrong telling Ms. Wallace's manager in 1967: "This lady was a star. And don't you ever forget it." Louis told it like it was. edit - just checked a discography because I was curious about the recording date - November, 1967 - and it turns out that the label that rejected this record was Reprise, not Vanguard. Apologies to Vanguard. If it had been Vanguard, perhaps they might have issued it. Edited July 23, 2016 by paul secor Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Jackie McLean "new soil" (Blue Note, stereo 47 w 63rd DG ear). Not sure why, maybe an early stamper, but this is one of my best sounding original blue notes. I have a fairly good amount of originals and they all sound great but for whatever reason this one just leaps out of the speakers!! Edited July 23, 2016 by Homefromtheforest Quote
