clifford_thornton Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 FWIW I've been using Ultimate Outer 2.5 and 5.0 sleeves from Sleeve City for several years and have had no off gassing issues or anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot to discover from repeated listening. Yes, great session.  ... But I love Fischer's Manteca too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great groop really. Ford and Walrath were in the Mingus Band when I saw it. On 31.12.2021 at 6:39 PM, sidewinder said: Reissue of both volumes of the ‘Memorial Album’. Great stuff. is this the sessions from 1949-53 ? I have it on 2 CDs but on the 1949 it´s a bit annoying that threre are so many alternate tracks of each tune. The 1951 session with Art Farmer is fine, but also the 1953 stuff with Teddy Charles is very fine. I like Wardell Gray´s lines. But the best Wardell Gray I ever heard was as a sideman on "The Happy Bird" in Boston. His solos on "Scrapple from the Apple" and I think "I May be Wrong" are highlights. Edited January 4, 2022 by Gheorghe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ‘49 tracks have nonagenarian Roy Haynes on them ! Agree that Wardell could really put solos together -hugely underrated (and I think Clark Terry commented similarly). He also extends his range into that of the baritone at times, to great effect on the Charles material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walrath is only on one cut. I think it would've been a more interesting LP if he'd played on more.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers - Just Coolin' (Blue Note/Vinyl Me Please). I bought this for the cool-looking vinyl. The music is just so-so in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Music From The Motion Picture Juno (Rhino). Orange transparent vinyl. I think I bought this because my daughters liked the movie but I don't remember playing it much. Pulled it off the shelf this morning and figured "What the heck". Some "spoken word" type singing that reminds me of Laurie Anderson's work. I can't believe that this LP is currently selling for over $50. I guess vinyl is hot right now. Here's a song from this LP. Almost sounds like a kid's singalong at times. Â Edited January 5, 2022 by bresna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Also, I think that was Elliot Page's first big movie role, so there is some crossover interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, the music isn't all that great to my ears and I wasn't planning to buy it on vinyl at all but this pressing caught my eye, so why not? Besides, if I ever decide that I don't need this in my collection, I will not lose money on it. No matter the reason, many of these VMP pressings are getting crazy money on the secondary market.
