I might just get my copy out too, thanks for the reminder

Mintish copy, sounds spectacular.

Great as the Horwich CD version is, this LP is definitive.

I'll have to stick with the Horwich CD.

Strange enough but I never ever had heard the Akyoshi-Tabackin band and it seams the only Akyoshi I ever heard is that piano solo on "I can´t get started" on the Mingus-Town Hall Concert, which sounds very similar to Lennie Tristano. 

It seems that Lew Tabackin as travelled much as a single with local rhythm sections in the last years, I somehow missed it. 

 

And I see so many postings about Eddie Palmieri, mostly from members who in general have very similar favourites like me, but before you posted that name, I haven´t even heard the name of him.....

He is primarily known as a salsa pianist, but he had jazz ability and aspirations and several of his classic records find him stretching out and exploring much more than salsa normally allows for. He is probably the first name that one would associate with salsa expanded to jazz level.

If you are interested, I'd say that the records with which to start are Superimposition and The Sun of Latin Music.

Nicely done issue of this music.  Grant's live dates add something. The two sets offered up by Resonance a few years ago are very good too.

Saw Lew Tabackin just the once at a California Club (somewhere in the SF Valley). Really nice club, evening and excellent music as I recall.

United Jazz and Rock Ensemble on Mood Records - 'Round Seven'.

Charles Mingus presents Jazz Workshop Vol 2 (Vogue UK 10”). My Dad’s record. 5 trombones stretching out, one track per side.  Willie Dennis and JJ Johnson stand out. Great live sound, recorded in Brooklyn 1953. Must track down Vol 1.

Mark Styker mentioned this last week or the week before in one of his Twitter posts so I picked up a copy.

Yes you mention it and I remember I must have it somewhere. When I was a youngster, I bought a lot of those "Spotlite" LPs, I think there is also one of Bird in Paris, but they published anything that was recorded of Bird, may it be good, may it be sad, may it have a better ore a barely acceptable sound.....

I have a vague memory, that there is also tunes that Bird didn´t record much, some "Strike Up the Band" or "Fine and Dandy" or so. 

There´s also a very long Body & Soul but somehow the local musicians never know if to play ballad time or double time, so I think I remember they not always really together....

The rest might be standard bop repertory like the "Bird in Paris"....

Recently I had an attempt at an LP clear out. This was on the pile for possible onward movement.Once I listened to it I realised that it was a keeper. Better sound compared to the Bird in Paris set , but that too was a keeper.

Somewhere in the racks I have a red Storyville LP which I think covers the same Swedish tour.

Now spinning:

This isn't bad.  But it's not nearly as good as I would like it to be.  The music strikes me as very "studio-y" and docile.  Nobody ever lets loose.  I suppose it's telling that this album never was issued in the U.S. . . . I pulled it off the shelf to see if I still felt the same way since my last listen, and I do.
