Chico Hamilton Quintet - With Strings Attached [Warner Bros, France]

this is fast becoming one of my favourite Hamiltons, especially now I've replaced a noisy copy with a much nicer one.

(still don't like the cover though, sorry TtK :))

Krzysztofa Komeda——Komedy 1———(Poljazz)

pieces from 1965 and 1962, with the former more interesting. It features Stanko , Urbaniak and Zbigniew Namyslowski a.o. Not of the highest level but still pretty interesting.

Everyone's favourite

Wiki states this was repeated from 1950s to 1973. I'll have caught it in its last few years

Tony Oxley---------Tomorrow is here-------(Dossier) 🇩🇪 

 

Sounds immense but quite approachable really. Gerd Dudek, Barry Guy and Johannes Bauer and others feature in the sixteen strong orchestra

I'd've been nearer the middle. I remember it seeming quite old fashioned by then.

The Oxley certainly sounds worthy of investigation.

Now if they had played the music to The Woodentops it could all have been very different...

Just looked up the Oxley. Four drummers apart from him! No wonder it sounds immense

Thanks for the positive comment. I'm always surprised (though pleasantly) when someone else knows and likes some of the music I listen to.

The problem for me is, when it comes to jazz, this only happens online.

Really appreciate your varied taste in music -  somehow quite often mirroring mine ....

Good to hear. I wish I had your breadth of knowledge and taste in classical music.

Same here.

I second the first sentiment here (the second only for the occasional Jazz title)

I'm often intrigued by the titles posted and seconded by you both, especially, but not only, the music from Africa of which I have a small smattering most usually of the more famous and obviously commercial names. So to see these LPs is a delight. I've so far resisted chasing any down but today's Kora (?) duet may have to be the first exception to that rule.

now listening to this because it was posted elsewhere on the board  today

Agreed .... mostly happens with similarly addicted friends from the past .... probably we are sort of dinosaurs ....
