I almost went to see him in CT but had to back out at the last minute. It turns out that was one of his last live gigs. Quote

At least we have the records. 5 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Ray Barretto - The Other Road ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Quote

During the CD and MP3 age, which is when I was listening to the record most, the temptation to change midway through the second track was always quite strong. Yesterday I was really struck by how much more I enjoyed the whole record on LP. Shape of Jazz to come is a very fine early Coleman Album, it is still swinging and very easy to acces for people who still have to learn to make the transition from tonal and straight ahead to more steps beyond certain bounderies. It´s interesting, that one of the tracks "Lonely Woman" was a favourite of my mother. Born 1921 in Europe it might have been quite unusual for an old women to listen what though now is "old", then was "modern". She had her things she loved and spinned over and over again: Mingus´ "Meditation on Integration" with Dolphy, "Pharoah Sander Healing Song" and Ornette Coleman the "Lonely Woman" or one certain harmolodic theme that was on an Impulse Album and later was with string quartet.....i think "Prime Design Time Design"......

They got it in a couple of weeks ago and I showed restraint and common sense then but yesterday thought "sod it, won't see one of them again if it's still there I'm having it".

Rabshakeh Posted August 18, 2024 Report Posted August 18, 2024 2 hours ago, Teasing the Korean said: The Hi-Lo's Happen to Bossa Nova - (Reprise, mono promo) I think this is one of their more underrated records. One of my biggest problems with the Hi Los is that their music doesn't have much place for rhythm. At least this one has to deal with a beat. Perhaps it leads to a dilution of their sound, but to my ears it is an overall improvement. Quote

Which can be a good or bad thing, depending on your mood. Quote
JSngry Posted August 18, 2024 Report Posted August 18, 2024 Pre-Columbia Hi-Lo's had plenty of rhythm. That stuff has resisted CD way easier than it should have. But there is the Columbia album with Marty Paich: Quote
