HolyStitt Posted October 27, 2007 Report Posted October 27, 2007 So far it has been a nice evening spent with the Oliver Nelson The Verve/Impulse Big Band Studio Sessions. I have heard the first 3 CDs for the first time and I am about to start the fourth. I am a little nervous about the JFK tribute but I am excited about the Pee Wee Russell material coming after. Quote

Good to hear - hopefully my copy arrives next week. The Pee Wee LP is great (have a vinyl) but I'm looking forward to checking out the JFK for the first time. Quote

Cliff Englewood Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 Disc 7 of the Max Roach Set is pretty good. Quote
Tom 1960 Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 It's been awhile since I last listened to this. I really enjoy the mainly trio sessions on the first couple discs. The music is squarely focused on Horace's playing. Very enjoyable. Quote

montg Posted November 1, 2007 Report Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) So far it has been a nice evening spent with the Oliver Nelson The Verve/Impulse Big Band Studio Sessions. I have heard the first 3 CDs for the first time and I am about to start the fourth. I am a little nervous about the JFK tribute but I am excited about the Pee Wee Russell material coming after. The jfk tribute came off a lot better than I had anticipated. I liked the archival speech introductions that set the theme for each song...'Artists' rightful place' was pretty awesome, imo (both the sentiment of JFK's speech and the music) If sometimes our great artist have been the most critical of our society, it is because their sensitivity and their concern for justice, which must motivate any true artist, makes him aware that our Nation falls short of its highest potential. I see little of more importance to the future of our country and our civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist.

Never having heard the Kennedy thing before, I would say it's pretty good, better than I had expected. Overall the whole set is very strong and I really like it, though there are parts of discs 5 & 6 with Jimmy Smith which seem a tad weaker than the rest. On the other hand that's what you get with "complete" sets and some of the stuff with Smith is really good. Edited for spelling Edited November 5, 2007 by John Tapscott Quote
