slide_advantage_redoux Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) Anyone have this? I have "Impact" (the other big band Tolliver date) and wondered how they compare.

JSngry Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 I prefer the second album, but not enormously so. They're both of a piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milestones20 Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) I also prefer the second album. However, this one is plenty good, too. Edited June 22, 2006 by milestones20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david weiss Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I always preferred Impact and when I turned people on to Charles' big band stuff I'd always play impact first. However, I've been getting into the Music Inc and Big Band record more and more lately. It really charges out of the gate with Ruthie's Heart, which is still in the book and one of my favorities to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enterprise Server Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 I enjoyed both. I've always been a big fan of Charels Tolliver's. I recall my buying my first Strata East record back in the early 70's. It was his quartet recording, Live In Tokyo. I was hooked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An excellent collection for anyone who likes Tolliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 I'll differ: I prefer the earlier album. Partly because of the music, partly because the recording is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjazzman Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I recently purchased the Mosaic set and the LP Paperman, fantastic music.................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I'll differ: I prefer the earlier album. Partly because of the music, partly because the recording is much better. I also much prefer 'Music Inc & Big Band', more fire and immediacy, but they're both well worth having, as is everything by Tolliver. Still longing for a CD of 'Paper Man'!

"longing for a cd-r of "Paperman". Not a problem. If you don't care what it sounds like, and you email me your address, I will send you a cd-r. I would love to have a cd-r of Music Inc. & Big Band........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
