That is a great Mosaic set. For some reason, it doesn't get the accolades. Maybe because it's Columbia & not Blue Note?

Yes, it is a gem of a set. If my memory is right I bought it in the LP version when it was on 'last chance' on the Mosaic site. Those were the days..

Norgran MG N-1017 - Bud Powell " Jazz Original" - rec. 11 & 12 1955

 

Quite a strange record indeed. My copy is titled "Bud Powell 1957" . There are some tunes that Bud rarely played. "That Black Old Magic" returned to his set lists one decade later after he had returned to New York, as well as "Though Swell"  and "Someone to watch over me". It´s interesting to compare this slightly stride version with the ballad version he did 10 years later on "The Return of Bud Powell", which is my favourite version.

lovely live record and great sonics on this one!

I love Pharoah Sanders and have loved his music as early as the 70´s when he put out all those great records for Impulse I think. When I was in my early teens I got his first record "Live at the East". 

What personnel is on this one ?

I think this one is from the same time like "Soul Station" and is another great record. I think Soul Station and this one are my favourite Mobley records.

yesterday on the King's annual birthday flea market, I didn't even try, but a year ago, I actually managed to find an album from my extended wish list... so playing it again on the occasion (even though commentators pointed out that the King lost quite a bit of weight over the year, so that there's substantially less King to celebrate this year than a year ago...)

It has Danny Mixon on piano and organ, Calvin Hill on bass and Greg Bandy on drums. It’s a Pharoah favorite being very groovy and accessible but also creative and original in sound. Pharoah didnt sound like an exact Coltrane copy yet but had his own thing.

This is one of my favourite Sanders records. There is a real smoothness to it, along with a lot of brawn.

You mean the Sabu album?  That is killer!  It sounds very ahead of its time to my ears, like proto-bugalu in places.

Read your interview with him again when playing the album, thank you so much for that, it's a very useful resource on an aspect of the Dutch Jazz scene that hasn't been covered that much elsewhere 

[Royal Oak]

Today I bought a copy of Mark Murphy's "Rah" from a charity shop. This an album I bought on CD in around 1995, which I'd never heard on vinyl until today.

I could probably sing every note of that CD, so often did I listen to it all those years ago. As such, I was most surprised to hear that "My Favourite Things" on vinyl contains several choruses not present on the CD - new choruses referencing Miles, Coltrane, Anita O'Day, Basie, Cannonball etc. I wonder why these were cut from the OJC CD?  

What the heck? There is another track on the LP which didn't make it to CD

EDIT to add - all explained by Wikipedia - lyrics considered "inappropriate" by Richard Rodgers...

thank you! Yeah, I feel like it is pretty unique and I was so glad to get to know Herbert a bit.
