Great that you like Philly J.J so much. He is also one of my favourite drummers. And since my first jazzalbum was Miles´"Steamin´" , his solo on Salt Peanuts also was about the first drum solo I heard .

Yes, PJJ is my favourite of the drummers of that era. I was lucky enough to see him once - in a quintet with Benny Bailey and Roland Kirk at the Free Trade Hall, Manchester during the time that Philly was living in England.

George Russell - The 80th Birthday Concert: Aside from a track on a Bill Evans album of odds and ends, I am unfamiliar with Russell's music.

I was there for the London performance on that one. A great concert - and I have still got to get hold of the CD !

Anthony Williams: Life Time

Sam Rivers!

More hosannas for Rowles' & Cohn's Heavy Love!  

 

 

Earlier:

Horace Silver Quintet Plus J.J. Johnson - The Cape Verdean Blues (Blue Note)
Everybody on this record sounds great -- but tonight I was really locked in on Roger Humphries' drumming. Fan-stinkin'-tastic.

Here it is.

The Bebop Revolution (RCA/Bluebird). I keep this CD for the four tracks I don't have elsewhere: the wonderful 1946 session by Kenny Clarke and His 52nd Street Boys. I enjoyed that twelve minutes of music so much that I turned to this collection of Clarke's European recordings I found about 20 years ago:

Special Kenny Clarke (French EMI). This starts with KC's first session as leader, recorded in 1938 in Stockholm, while Clarke was on tour with Edgar Hayes' big band. He plays xylophone (!) exclusively. Much excellent music follows.

More James Moody:

The Blues and Other Colors (Milestone/OJC)

 

Moody and the Brass Figures (Milestone/OJC)

Watazumi Doso - His Practical Philosophy (Columbia Japan). Originally a 2-LP set. The first half is a 1973 lecture/recital - in Japanese, of course. So I most often turn to the second half - a studio recording of the great flutist from 1974. Watazumi was one of Steve Lacy's favorite improvisers.
