jazzbo Posted April 22, 2019 Report Posted April 22, 2019 One great thing about moving from Texas back to Ohio six years ago is that Mosaic material arrives much much quicker. Quote

His voicings make you think that it´s a larger band playing. Like Tadd Dameron, he also had that quality. All three Thad Jones BN´s are great, as is the Debut LP "The Fabulous Thad Jones". I saw him "live" only once with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Big Band late in 1978, but to my disappointment he only conducted, I had hoped he also might play some trumpet. Anyway it was torwards the end of his collaboration with Mel Lewis I think....

Mine arrived yesterday. Agreed on sound, better than other Strata-East CD releases I've heard (apparently the original LPs didn't have great sonics). Musically, this is more straight-ahead than Tolliver's later work. Edited April 23, 2019 by T.D. Quote

duaneiac Posted April 23, 2019 Report Posted April 23, 2019 The video is pretty dark, but that apparently because Leon Redbone insisted that the stage be lit with only a single light bulb. The audio is fine and the video is cued up to a very entertaining segment featuring hand shadow puppets! Maybe if more jazz concerts included hand shadow puppets, jazz would be more popular these days . . . Quote
