Chuck Nessa Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Tonight, the Earl Hines/Paul Gonsalves quartet with Al Hall on bass and Jo Jones on the drums. What a wonderful (an neglected) date. Over the Rainbow is a classic. Quote
wolff Posted August 1, 2004 Author Report Posted August 1, 2004 (edited) Herbie Hancock: Takin' Off with Dexter Gordon and Freddie Hubbard on Blue Note. Side 2 is great IMO. Only side I play(same with whomever owned it before me ). The tempo goes fast, med, slow which is quite enjoyable. Stanley Turrentine: Never Let Me Go with Shiley Scott (Blue Note). Lp has $2.70 price sticker from '64 on it. I bet it was a defective/store demo LP that got put in the used bin. I'm not quite as ageless as Brownie, so I did not pick this up new. Fairly unique music/instrumentation on this one. Organ and bass plus conga. Edited August 1, 2004 by wolff Quote

wolff Posted August 1, 2004 Author Report Posted August 1, 2004 Are you breaking in a new turntable, Charles? Quote
charlesp Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 wolff, No, but I am trying out two new phono amps - I am comparing a Crimson preamp/amp with an Audio Note OTO se. My decision will be based on which one gets LPs right. Quote
brownie Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Atom, welcome to this Board. And honored that you chose a photo I took of Marion Brown for your avatar. The photo was taken in Paris in 1966. The original was handed to Bernard Stollman of ESP along with some other photos that were used for the front and back covers of Marion Brown's ESP album 'Why Not'. The slide eventually turned up in Italy where it was used for a reissue of the album. Wish I could get the original back. But that's a long story! Quote

It's one of my favorite Marion Brown photographes. Quote

paul secor Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 Tonight, the Earl Hines/Paul Gonsalves quartet with Al Hall on bass and Jo Jones on the drums. What a wonderful (an neglected) date. Over the Rainbow is a classic. I bought this over fiteen years ago and played it once. As I remember, I had mixed emotions about Paul Gonsalves' playing. This was recorded less than four years before he died, and his playing doesn't sound as authoritative as it did in his prime. Nonetheless, "Over the Rainbow" is a beauty - he puts everything he has into it, and the feeling comes through completely. His playing on "I Got It Bad" is fine also. Hines and Jo Jones are masterful, and Al Hall is a rock. Jones' "tapdancing" on "Moten Swing" is a bit of pure magic. As I've gotten older, I've come to realize that for older musicians every day isn't easy and the music might not come as easily as it once did. Playing this record again reinforced that, and I was able to listen this time for what was there, rather than what I expected or wanted to be there. At it's best, this is a wonderful date. Thanks for mentioning it and getting me to finally hear it. Quote

couw Posted August 2, 2004 Report Posted August 2, 2004 Helmut "Joe" Sachse - Solo (Amiga) one of the very last Jazz LPs released in the GDR this one has Sachse playing often more than one guitar (at once), tapping his feet, and doing some flute (while playing guitar) too. May sound like a circus act, but the result is very much not circus music or free jazz that lost itself within the endless meanderings of self for that matter. Not the one for guitars in general, I like this stuff pretty well. There isn't a big battery of sound "enhancers" either, which helps. Quote
ajf67 Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 Side four of the Blue Note Art Pepper two-fer. Right now listening to "Bewitched" Quote
ajf67 Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 The J.J. Johnson Quintet 'Dial J.J. 5' (Columbia) the great JJ Quintet with Bobby Jaspar, Tommy Flanagan, Wilbur Little and Elvin Jones! These Columbia J.Js are superb. Thank god for Mosaic, because they have sat in Columbia's vault forever just collecting dust. Quote
ajf67 Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 Grant Green "Grantstand" with Yusef Lateef, Jack McDuff and Al Harewood. Mine is a NY mono copy that is in bad shape, but even with the noise the sound is just so awesome on these old records. Quote
wolff Posted August 3, 2004 Author Report Posted August 3, 2004 (edited) Blue Mitchell: Down With It! Sweeeeet sounding Liberty Jackie McLean: Right Now! For you collector nerds, I'm fairly certain, this may have NY label, but was held back and first pressed during Liberty era, so you will look in vein for the 'ear'. Beautiful LP. This music always 'sends me' far away. Anthony Williams: Spring Great Lp and it happens to be FOR SALE. Lazy tonight so I'm just going down the line of my BN's. Edited August 3, 2004 by wolff Quote
