mikeweil Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 They used to have a link to their page on the series on the new releases page, but it isn't there any more, sorry, can't find it. If you try a search with the series name at the sites of mail order shops .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 (edited) Trudy Pitts/Pat Martino Johnny Hammond Smith Rusty Bryant vol 2 Pucho and the Latin Soul Brothers Ivan Boogaloo Jones Ivan Boogaloo Jones vol 2 Idris Muhammad and another organ player whose name escapes me Don't forget Fantasy has issued a lot of cds after this series that are basically more of the same, just without the "Acid Jazz" label.

Swinging Swede Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 They used to have a link to their page on the series on the new releases page, but it isn't there any more, sorry, can't find it. That’s what the Internet Archive is for! Here is a snapshot of Fantasy’s New Releases page from June 2003: New Releases At the end of it is the now removed link to the Legends of Acid Jazz series: Legends of Acid Jazz As Stefan mentioned, there are later (and earlier) reissues of material in the same vein without the LOAJ denomination.

Swinging Swede Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 I tested the basic Fantasy URL part of the link above and the page still exists, although Fantasy doesn’t link to it on the New Releases page any longer. I then did a Google search for pages linking to the LOAJ page, and there is one on Fantasy’s site that still does that, namely the History page. Near the end of it there is still a link to the LOAJ series. There are some interesting search possibilities at disposal on the web! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 Thanks, Swede, for checking that out, this is the page I had in mind. You can learn a lot about other things besides music here ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragu Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 I like the series, but found I like some more than others. I was looking for that greasy sound and really found it in the Ivan Boogaloo Jones Vol.1 & 2. I also enjoy the Sonny Stitt. But I got and traded away the Billy Butler and Groove Holmes. They are both great musicians, no doubt about it, but I found the Butler uninteresting and the Groove Holmes didn't match his Pacific Jazz stuff in my opinion. But man does that Boogaloo Jones groove... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel A Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 The Stitt CD has Turn It On! (Prestige 10012, recorded on January 4, 1971) and Black Vibrations (prestige 10032, July 9, 1971) on it. Surprisingly, it's not just one-chord grooves. Leon Spencer's compositions are actually somewhat more interesting than what usually can be expected from this kind of stuff. Stitt himself plays good, but is perhaps heard to better advantage elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
