jeffcrom Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Charlie Christian/Wardell Gray - Tribute From Sweden (Fran Staterna). A bootleg (from Boris Rose, I think), purporting to be on a Swedish label. The music is pretty wonderful - mostly Benny Goodman Sextet/Septet broadcasts featuring Christian (from 1941) on side one and featuring Gray (from 1948) on side two. Later, toward the end of side one - Goodman plays two measures of pure Teschemacher in "Wholly Cats." Very cool.

sidewinder Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Certainly looks like a Boris Rose boot - typography very similar to some of the Ozone LPs I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 NAANCORE - Dave Rempis (as), Lasse Marhaug (electronics). Aerophonic LP. I like Marhaug's electronics because he is so aggressive, so over the top, and so willing to celebrate noise; there is no inhibition about it. But the real story of this record is Dave Rempis' phenomenal blowing throughout two 20-minute, continuous sides. Rempis sometimes seems like a man blowing a saxophone in the middle of a hurricane, and all the happier for that. Variety, power, and energy mark his playing here. Never heard Rempis at quite this level in KV5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard Rempis at quite this level in KV5 Agreed, Hearing his work outside the V5 on Aerophonic in the last year has been a revelation. Chops, energy, structure, & brains all working in equilibrium: what more can you ask for? Second Spring is my favorite record of the year so far. THE GLEAM - Steve Lacy Sextet : Lacy, Steve Potts (as, ss), Irene Aebi (vocal, vn), Bobby Few (p), J-J Avenel (b), Oliver Johnson (d). I got this for a buck or two on eBay. I thought it was the CD. Quite a nice surprise when it arrived in the mail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Gene Ammons - The Twister (Prestige). Reissue of Jammin' in Hi-Fi, if I understand correctly. I sure like me some Idrees Sulieman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 THE OSLO TAPES - Mats Gustafsson, Lasse Marhaug. Bocian LP. This is perhaps even skronkier than the Rempis/Marhaug LP, NAANCORE. I think Mats is using more "extended techniques" than Rempis does. Mats also seems to be playing more within Marhaug's soundfield, where Rempis sort of plays over and against it. But Mats generates a lot of power in his approach. I really like both of these LPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Claude Thornhill - Dinner for Two (RCA Camden). More pop or "mood music" than jazz, even though John Carisi, Danny Polo, Brew Moore, and Hal McKusick are on various sessions, and there's one Gil Evans chart. That's a description, not a criticism - I enjoy this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imeanyou Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 I picked this up today in a Tokyo suburb- a near mint first pressing with the obi, insert and even a Sony consumer questionnaire. The vinyl looks unplayed, I guess someone got cold feet.. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vinyl is pristine, I think I'll be spinning this for the rest of the week. I have the Sony Master Sound cd set too so I'll be able to check if they tweaked the sound or not.
