Jazz Crusaders Disc 4...

I was surprisingly disappointed on the 1st spin.... Time to give it another shot....

Much better the 2nd time around.... :)

Today it's The Complete Hall, Johnson, DeParis, and Dickenson Blue Note Sessions, Disc 1 "Steamin' and Beamin'" by the Edmond Hall Swingtet.

I LOVE this set! :excited:

Just got a new ipod because it is the only way I can survive work in this busy time of year. All I have on it right now is Mosaic sets. Ended up listening to the entire Horace Parlan set yesterday, since then Discs 5 and 6 of Larry Young, and now onto the Dexter Gordon Mosaic Select. What an improvement in my daily life already!

My humble impressions:

Parlan's trio has more energy than many piano-led trios. He can trill around the same few notes for a couple minutes, and I'm still grooving to the rhythm. Lots of soul. Disc 4 with the Turrentine brothers is definitely a blast, but I think I actually prefer the sessions with the Booker Ervin/Grant Green group.

It doesn't get much better than the end of the Larry Young set. Somehow I didn't remember the vocal tracks, which I surprisingly enjoyed. Cool version of Wild is the Wind--I usually turn to Nina Simone for that tune.
