Ricotti & Albuquerque------First Wind--------(Pegasus UK)

 

 

Prog-jazz-rock-blues that works well enough. Superbly recorded and yet this probably heading to the for sale pile. I need the space/ cash etc

If only it was an instrumental mix I'd have it off you in a trice

Is Andy Bey on all tracks? His presence would make me think avoid. 

 

Bey's a very prominent presence throughout so if you're not a fan I'd suggest avoiding

Prince Lawsha - Firebirds, Live at Berkeley Jazz Festival vol.1 [Birdseye]

Side 2 is particularly striking - Lawsha and Caliman weave a lovely tapestry but the Hutcherson, Williams, Moffett trio also come into there own.

Sounds like it might be the same guy. The Phil Moore I know was a pianist and arranger.  Is it from the 1950s or 60s?

NP:  Prokofieff:  3rd Symphony & the Scythian Suite - Leinsdorf & the BSO - RCA (stereo)

The album is not dated, but according to other sources is from 1967.

New Orleans Jazz at the Kitty Halls (Arhoolie)

Bill Harris, The Harris Touch (Emarcy)

Albert Harris:  Bacchanal - Conducted by Frank DeVol (Columbia, mono)

An orchestral suite inspired by the Greek Gods.  Amazing to think there was a time that a major label would have released something like this.

To Hear the World in a Grain of Sand (Soul Note)

That looks like a very intriguing combination of musicians. How well does it work?

For me, it didn't work. This kind of fusion project (backed by a big budget festival) is rarely, if ever, more than the sum of its parts, particularly on record. But I'm probably biased and I'd also like to hear Paul's opinion.

Anyway, it might be useful to know that the original LP is still available (Cam Jazz).
