What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[jeffcrom]

Dewey Redman - Coincide (Impulse). Hard-core, even for Impulse. And really good.

[kh1958]

Dave Brubeck Quartet, The Last Time We Saw Paris (Columbia)

[Kevin Bresnahan]

Kenny Dorham - Una Mas (Blue Note). Blue label Liberty Van Gelder pressing. It's pressings like this where I realize that those bright RVG CDs aren't so far off from the original LPs as I originally thought. Rudy liked his midrange.

 

[kh1958]

Stan Getz, Voices (Verve)

[sidewinder]

Jutta Hipp ‘At The Hickory House, Vol 2’ (Toshiba). Another great sounding reissue. 

[paul secor]

Ben Webster: Did You Call? (Nessa)

The best late period (say, post 1967) Ben that I've heard

[Dmitry]

Robin Kenyatta - GIRL FROM MARTINIQUE

US ECM pressing from 1973, promo. A very strong record, very confident playing by Kenyatta and the band. Is it on cd?

Followed by 'John Jenkins/Kenny Burrell' (Toshiba). Another humanly-affordable reissue.

I've this issue too. It sounds so different from the Conn. cd which has much more high frequency information. The Toshiba LP sounds fuller and arguably less thrilling perhaps even dull by comparison . I've kept both?

[Royal Oak]

 

^ While I prefer later Horace, all Horace is ace

Strange, didn’t sound that deficient to me at the high frequencies. In fact, much better all round than I was expecting. I have the Music Matters 2x45 and will have to check how that lines up. No doubt, even better still.

The Anniversary box of 4CDs is great by the way too.

Yep, I got it as a present from a dear buddy of mine. While no t a great fan of compilations, this is an awesome slice of the CTI oeuvre, I enjoy it a lot. Whoever compiled it, did a superb job.

[Dmitry]

Willie Bobo - BOBO MOTION, original 1967 mono. I'm sure stereo sounds more interesting, but this is what I got. A nice, funky album, displaying technical mastery of those on it. The band personnel is not listed, I hear someone similar to Plas Johnson there. It's a top of the line, swinging band.

All the tunes were arranged by Bert Keyes and Sonny Hill, names that are not immediately recalled by my unencumbered memory.

Also dig the cover.
