clifford_thornton Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 I feel like I've seen the vinyl version of Sanders' Africa far less than the preceding three records in your post. Quote
mjazzg Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 Not sure why I went to it after an SME afternoon. Had to dig out from the depths of a cupboard. Good listen, took me back to when I bought it on release Quote

Gheorghe Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 One of my alltime favourites as soon as it came out in the late 70´s on CBS. That was the time, when I discoverd "Bird" due to my first few albums of Miles and Mingus, where Bird as influence and mentor was mentioned. After my first purchase (Savoy Master Takes) this one was my second purchase but at first listening I was kind of shocked and puzzeld by the "terrible sound quality". On this , the treble was so up it had an outright piercing sound. I had to pull up the bass level and completly down the treble and still it sounded "shrill". But after a few starts I noticed the high quality of that exiting live music. It was the first time I heard about Fats and Bud and fell in love with Blakey´s powerful drumming. I can´t listen to this every day, but sometimes I pick it just for the memory of those days when I was thrilled by all that powerful music though badly recorded, and I remember I loved Dan Morgensterns most interesting liner notes so that I could "imagine" how Birdland was in 1950.....

Clunky Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 Steve Reid———-Nova ———-(Mustevic /Soul Jazz Records) 1976 date reissued in 2019. Roughly hewn loft era jazz. Quite impressed by this obscurity Quote
Niko Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 Rampart Street Paraders - Rampart and Vine Chu Berry and his Stompy Stevedores - CHU brought home on my way from work and they're both gorgeous, Eddie Miller on the first one I had never really heard up to now, I really like the covers, too... judging by their catalogue numbers (7080 and 7084) these two must have hit the market around the same time in 1955 but there's no indication that they're from the same collection...

sidewinder Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 Love the cover art on those two Philips LPs ! NY USA mono - more Blue. Quote
Niko Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 so happy with these Philips covers!! Best thing is that I just discovered that the Philips Museum (which is not far from here) has a "Vinyl!!" exhibition until mid-July... Quote

In addition to graphic design she is also a rather well-known "pop" painter, sculptor, and creator of public art installations. Have read a few interviews with her; I'll try to dig them up. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 6, 2019 Report Posted April 6, 2019 Ornette -- Free Jazz -- (Atlantic, orig US mono) just picked up a mono copy for fun, had never heard it this way before... Quote
JSngry Posted April 6, 2019 Report Posted April 6, 2019 Not quite as clean as the Bartok Records LP, but pretty damn close. No scratches, just a few one-time pops. And no noise at all in the quiet spaces. I had forgotten how quiet a well-made and well-cared for LP could really be. Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 6, 2019 Report Posted April 6, 2019 i have a 78 rpm bartock records set on 3 red-coloured discs Quote
Gheorghe Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 A very nice record and some of the tunes from "My Fair Lady", "Paint my wagon" and so on cannot be heard often by a jazz combo. Great line of the 57 edition of the Messengers with Griff and Bill Hardman. I bought this RCA "Black and White" Series in spring 1978 and still have it in good shape. A beautiful thing. Once I met Bill Hardman and told him that the first time I heard his trumpet was on this "Messengers play Lerner and Lowe" and he said "yeah, I remember that date" . Quote

Guess I had images of Andy Stewart Hogmanay singalongs with Blakey on drums . I think the Jazz press reviews were a bit lukewarm as well. Anyway, my loss.. Edited April 7, 2019 by sidewinder Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 i got one too my guys! only this that sucks about it, theres no 78 rpm single from it, which VIK were still manufacturing at the time Quote
