tranemonk Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 Finishing up Disc 1.. reverse order...Disc 2 didn't thrill me... but the 1st disc is good.. Overall I'm not sure... Ironically I thought the Xmas music was the best part of the set... I don't hear these the same as the Dinah set. Much hipper chorus here in my opinion. It didn't float my boat the first times I heard it, but I've come to really dig them. Quote
tranemonk Posted December 26, 2006 Report Posted December 26, 2006 (edited) Okay just finished Disc 1... My attention got better...!! I like this set... (The drum snare thing kinda bugged me a little bit) Okay onto Disc 2... I think I like it... but I must be honest I'm kinda distracted.... Tony Williams Disc 3.... Didn't have any of these records... looking forward to it.. Big fan of Bill Pierce (local homie) and Mulgrew.... although I could do without Wallace Roney,,, Edited December 27, 2006 by tranemonk Quote

HolyStitt Posted December 29, 2006 Report Posted December 29, 2006 Charles Lloyd Of Course, Of Course The first few times I played it I was disappointed that it didn't have the same energy as Discovery! This time, I am hearing the music with fresh ears and without any preconceived expectations. Now, I am really enjoying this CD! Quote

tranemonk Posted January 1, 2007 Report Posted January 1, 2007 (edited) Up to Disc 4... it is quite a good set... If you're on the fence... get the Capitol jazz set... but put this on the "get when running low" list... Lou Donaldson Disc 1... I had a fair amount of Lou before... but this is better than I thought ti would be .... Edited January 1, 2007 by tranemonk Quote
