Soulstation1 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Today is the day! Support The Good Doctor! I noticed it's over at emusic today Quote
Free For All Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 It's been up at iTunes for awhile. I'm interested to hear opinions on this one, I'm kind of on the fence about it. His singing on Come Together is pretty out there, that's for sure. Quote
kh1958 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 It's $12.99, direct from the label, with free shipping in February. http://www.palmetto-records.net/ Quote
Joe G Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Who's on the fence re: Lonnie?? Never! Quote
mikeweil Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Just listening to the first track as found on the Palmetto site. Herlin Riley!!! He rips it up. To tell the truth, I found the drummer on the Doctor's last CD the weak point, relying to much on the backbeat, but Riley .... Oh my good God ... I will buy this instantly.

mikeweil Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Just ordered from Palmetto, and they didn't add shipping charges! Wow ... Quote
marcello Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 I believe that Palmetto has only three releases scheduled for this year, and this is the first. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 I can't describe how happy I am that a label is finally capturing the Dr. on record the way he deserves to be captured. I'll be picking this one up for sure. Quote
mikeweil Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 I wish we had organists like that over here! Quote
kh1958 Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 While ordering the new Lonnie Smith, there are other fine CDs on this label (for example, Bobby Previte's Set the Alarm for Monday, or Bobby Watson's Horizon Reassembled). My apologies if this suggestion casts a stone in anyone's pond of "jazz is dead" reveries. Quote

Shawn Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Not in my budget, but I will supporting the good Dr. in spirit. I did go see him on tour last year and purchased the last two albums, that will have to do for now. He's still an amazing performer at the very top of his game. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 damn, heard soundclips, I gotta get this soon when funds allow. Quote

My apologies if this suggestion casts a stone in anyone's pond of "jazz is dead" reveries. Palmetto is a great label, in addition to the Bobby Previte's the Frank Kimbrough and Ben Allison releases are wonderful. Quote

I have a couple of the Frank Kimbrough releases and they are good--I haven't heard Ben Allison yet. Quote
