Now listening to the cuts originally released as Gemini. It's irrepressible music -- and it swings so hard. It's like being carried along by a wave.

Hard to believe it was recorded in 1971... but it was.

Live at Pep's

What took me so long to get into Lateef's music escapes me. I already owned a few of his Savoy titles and enjoyed them. I've been listening to a good number of releases the past few days and listening to this now. Very nice live date with the added bonus of hearing the under recorded Richard Williams on trumpet.

That's some deep music, scary at times, gotta learn why the scare and then rise up to it rather than cower from it. Still working on that here, some days are better than others, but, you know, grown folks evolution music, it's life, embrace it. It won't stop embracing back.

NP, nothing nearly that life-deepening, but impulse! got the sound of that Chico/Stinson hook up in a really nice way, the details, there. I do think that if you're a drummer and just want to check out sound, the pure sound of a kit, this is one guy that needs to be absorbed (or at least checked out in some detail). That specific a kit sound doesn't happen by magic or by accident. If nothing else, it can make you aware that you can DO things with a drum kit, not just sit town and start playing, no, take siome time, play with tunings, fuck with cymbals, learn that percussions have pitch and overtones (and all that comes with that). PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SOUND. And sure, Stinson gave him that to play off of, but, you know, that shit works both ways, a hookup like that.

In a way, that's where I live. Been doing it for a long time.
