Help! Can't find the new Kenny Barron/Venus CD at Cadence. Did find the Harold Mabern there and wiould love to order both. Thanks, Marla The one problem at Cadence is that it sometimes takes a while for the new issues to come in. Send an e-mail to Slim at Cadence to let her know which ones you want, & she'll let you know when they arrive. Quote
makpjazz57 Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 Thanks so much for the quick reply? Do you have this CD and a listing of tunes? I tried finding a way to purchase directly through Venus Records, but was unsuccessful. Thanks again, Marla Quote
Jim R Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 Brad, it looks like you missed this thread: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=597 I'll PM you. Quote

I tried finding a way to purchase directly through Venus Records, but was unsuccessful. Thanks again, Marla http://www.venusrecord.com I'm waiting for it to come in at Cadence too. I just looked at the Venus website & the track listing is in Japanese which I can't read. Edited February 1, 2005 by jlhoots Quote

makpjazz57 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Posted February 2, 2005 Thanks for the link! Was able to identify most tunes via the sound bytes: All Of Me Bye Bye Blackbird Cherokee Doxy Misty Stolen Moments Sunset and the Mockingbird Sweet and Lovely Willow Weep for Me Even though most are standards I've heard hundreds of times, still look forward to anything new by Kenny Barron!

Marla I took a look at the Venus link and the three other tunes are: Cleopatra's Dream Summer Night Yesterdays Quote
makpjazz57 Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Finally received and listened to "Super Standard - Super Trio." Playing is excellent. Leonhart, Barron and Foster aren't breaking any new ground but I'm a big fan of all three and they are masters of ballads, etc. Will give another listen this evening, as first go-around was with lots of interruptions. Want to pay attention to Foster's support - I think someone mentioned earlier in this thread - a concern for Foster's playing? Marla Quote
Alec Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Does Leonhart sing on "Super Standard - Super Trio" ? I love his playing but hate his singing. Did Mel Torme encourage Leonhart to sing more? I can forgive much in the singing department, but I just can't abide his. The last Leonhart cd I picked up with his singing I couldn't get rid of fast enough. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Singing? no....just a few pleasant low key murmerings & mutterings during his solos. Quote
ghost of miles Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Singing? no....just a few pleasant low key murmerings & mutterings during his solos. As opposed to the "Bud Powell/Keith Jarrett School of Piano Singalong?" Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Right. Nothing even remotely close to the paint peeling sonics that spill out of Mr. J. Quote
James Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 I think someone mentioned earlier in this thread - a concern for Foster's playing? Marla Who said it?! I'm going for my shotgun!!! Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Why go the messy route when a poison tipped umbrella will do the trick? Quote
James Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Why go the messy route when a poison tipped umbrella will do the trick? A good suggestion considering the amount of rainfall we've been getting lately in SoCal. However there has always been something "reassuring" about the messy approach for me. Perhaps the feeling of a job truly completed.......I dunno........... Quote
Jim R Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Singing? no....just a few pleasant low key murmerings & mutterings during his solos. On the newest Eddie Higgins, I thought Leonhart's murmerings & mutterings were a bit more noticeable than I had heard on previous Higgins Venus recordings. I found it pretty annoying- especially when using headphones. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I bet Dave Poskonka didn't pull that murmering crap on 'ol Ed! Quote
