I am a huge Jackie McLean fan and never understood why this one has such bad rep. Love it and I especially think his style blends excellent with Rashied Ali’s drumming. 

Same here, I LOVE it, and .....no influence at all, but a coincidence.....that dramatic effect of the voice, spoken and sung on the title track ....such a thing will be on our upcoming album. 

And yeah. Though this music might have been recorded almost 60 years ago, people still tend to not understand it. But it´s such a natural thing.....it only needs listening.....it´s beautiful !!!!

That would be me to an extent. I struggle with Miles' collaborations with Gil Evans. To the point I just don't listen to them. Every now and then I'll put them on and it's always the same reaction..."nah, not for me"

Yeah, it´s  astonishing....so many people scream over the collaborations with Gil Evans, and here we are some people with big ears, but obviously not prepared for that kind of music...... I love the melody of Concierto de Aranjuez, but not in that setting....Miles is more than okay.....but it would have been great with a small group with guitar. I love "Aranjuez" as a melody really much and even quote from it in my composition "Miss RA´s Choice" since the girl I dedicated it to, was born in Spain, so it´s just a musical "nod" towards the place of her arrival (....hey she claims to be Sun Ra´s spiritual daughter and that´s why she doesn not say "birth country"...but "place of arrival (on earth) 😍)

I like it much more than let´s say "Page One". Especially Andrew Hill brings it to live. I love Joe Henderson, but especially interesting is that "rhythm section" (I hate that word !) with such tough players, who always have thrilled me.

Sounds like an excellent run 😇

after being pleasantly surprised by the excellent Gayle set and Clifford’s recommendation I decided I needed to get this one as well. Great stuff.

you are damn right, loud !!!!!

I heard that group in 1978 at Kongresshaus in Vienna. That venue doesn´t exist anymore, now there is a BILLA market in it🤢

Anyway, it was really loud and I was sitting near the amps, but it was one of the best live shows I ever heard, I heard Max Roach later too, with Odeon Pope and Calvin Hill, but I liked the quartet with Billy Harper more, and liked Reggie Workman more as a bassist.

This is a very fine album. I think some of the albums Bud recorded in the mid fifties were not as good as earlier albums or later albums, but this one is very fine. The Monk tunes like Epistrophy are outa sight, as is Salt Peanuts and a boppish theme on Sweet Georgia Brown. Bud was really in very fine form on it.
