Gheorghe Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 I´ve just listend to the last CD from the Cliff Jordon Strata East: The Glassbeads Game. Really great the two different quartets, the one with Stanley Cowell and the one with Cedar Walton. The Cliff-Walton-Sam Jones-Billy Higgins group became the working unit, that would record very much in the following years. In general, that Box has a lot of interesting material, but I liked most the Rhytm X, the Pharoah Sanders with Sonny Sharrock, and of course the Glass Beads Game. Quote

mikeweil Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Finally found the time for discs 5 & 6 this afternoon. Edited February 24, 2018 by mikeweil Quote
ghost of miles Posted February 27, 2018 Report Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) I dipped pretty heavily into the Mosaic Mildred Bailey for my afternoon show today (the "classic jazz" Tuesday edition of the program), as I was paying tribute to the birth anniversaries of both her and Dexter Gordon. I inevitably pull out the Bailey set every several years for a thorough re-listening and ended up sending a note of appreciation to Scott, because I can't imagine any other label in the world ever issuing a Mildred Bailey collection done as well as this one was.   Edited February 27, 2018 by ghost of miles Quote
BFrank Posted February 27, 2018 Report Posted February 27, 2018 Blakey Blue Note 1960 - disk #1 Haven't listened to this in a long time. Still great! Quote
JohnS Posted March 16, 2018 Report Posted March 16, 2018 Discs 1 and 2. Disc 2 with Giuffre and Hall is particularly enjoyable for its nice easy swing. Quote
Clunky Posted March 16, 2018 Report Posted March 16, 2018 The Complete Vee Jay Paul Chambers Wynton Kelly ——- discs 1& 5  Even though Kelly isn’t especially original I don’t tire of these tracks even the wall2wall trios on discs5&6. Great uncomplicated music and just enough variety . Quote
