I've never heard it & unless you have deep pockets, it is not easy to get your hands on a copy of that today, on either LP or CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzcorner Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) EmArCy / Mercury [Japan] DMJ-5045 - Two groups rec. 1953 & 1954 Stockholm a) Art Farmer / Jimmy Cleveland / Ake Persson /Arne Domnerus / Lars Gullin / Bengt Halberg / Simon Brehm /Allan Dawson b) Ake Persson / Ed Gregory (Sahib Shihab) / Bjarne Nerem /Adian Acea / Joe Benjamin / Roy Haynes No Info in the liner what Quincy has to do on both session. At least he was on european tour in 1953 with the Lionel Hampton band - probably arranging for the 1953 session?

Pim Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) I think this one was meant to be one and it really sounds like a very, very solid Blue Note date. Edited October 15, 2023 by Pim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 I’d say the 60’s is my favorite OP decade. I enjoy these records a lot more than the drumless trio from the ‘50’s and the Pablo stuff from the 70’s. This Exclusively for My Friends series is lovely and MPS delivered some top quality sound. These 5 dollar discs sound like audiophile records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Black Renaissance [Harry Whitaker] - Body, Mind and Spirit (Baystate/Luv N' Haight, 1977) IMO, the hero of this record is Buster Williams. His bass is often in the foreground, and -- even when it isn't -- Buster's fingerprints are ALL OVER this record. What an incredible groove and sound!

I agree. Whenever I listen to it, I'm surprised (again) that BN didn't want to issue it. Next up: Dollar Brand / Abdullah Ibrahim - Tintinyana (Kaz UK, 2 LPs) The third volume in "The African Recordings" series I brought this home from a record store in Madrid last summer.

These 5 dollar discs sound like audiophile records. I agree with you on more than one point, even if I am not a Peterson fan and never was. But I don´t like drumless trios since I´m a drum addict and the first thing I consider if I play or go out to listen is about who plays the drums. But Peterson as one thing and no drums as the other thing is double punishment for me 😄, though I must admit I heard some stuff where he is not so selfih as usual and leaves more space for the others. That´s why strange to say my favourite Peterson record is the one with the Singers Unlimited which is strange for me since I m no Peterson fan and vocal jazz also is not my most secret love. From the Pablo records I like mostly the Eddie Lockjaw Davis with the OP-Trio, that´s a fine little record. I don´t have others. Okay I heard a Montreux Jam once but listened to it mostly because it had Diz, Clark Terry and I think also Jaws, but one thing about Pablo often is the choice of the drummers. They just didn´t use drummers that I like, for example Klook, Max, Philly J.J,., Elvin Jones, Roy Haynes, Tony Williams, Al Foster etc........
