The Magnificent Goldberg Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Next up Jack Duff -------The Enchanted Isle-------(Avenue) A 1971 hard bop album with the late Kenny Wheeler adding immensely to the attractive themes. My copy looks clean but has quite a few rough spots which don't really detract too much from the driving music . Never HEARD of that one!!!

MG I used to have this LP years ago but sold it because it did not really grab me much. I bought it because of Wheeler's presence but unfortunately the music struck me as rather so-so. Oh hell - I just realised it's not Jack McDuff but Jack Duff. What a duffer MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Andrew Hill - Dance With Death (Blue Note). This is another rainbow LP that just doesn't sound very good, which is why I think a lot of them sat in the can until Michael Cuscuna rescued them. Trumpeter Charles Tolliver sounds like he's playing in the other room. There's clearly something wrong with this recording and it's much more noticeable on the original LP. Edit: The more I listen to this, I have to wonder if RVG accidentally left a microphone shut off. Listen to the drum solo on the second track, "Partitions".

kh1958 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Duke Pearson, Sweet Honey Bee (Blue Note Liberty). Not a great copy of the LP, but still it is amazing how much better it sounds than the CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Jane Ira Bloom - Second Wind (Outline Records). Beat up record with the cover almost separated, but I've never seen it before, I like Bloom's playing and it was only $3, so I took a chance. So far, it's very nice. I bought my copy years ago from J.I.B. and still enjoy listening to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homefromtheforest Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Amancio D'Silva "integration" (lansdowne, UK stereo). Amazing album and every time I listen to it I still feel it's a stronger session then "hum dono" but for some reason doesn't get the same hype.

jeffcrom Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Henri Renaud - Modern Sounds: France (Contemporary 10"). Some of the usual Paris modernists of the time (1953), including Jimmy Gourley, plus Sandy Mosse (spelled here "Moss") from Chicago. This again. A nice little record - not earth-shattering, but nice. Gourley is the hero here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
