Started the morning with the wonderful

Ron Miles - Witness

 

then received the two following cds in the mail from japan:

Kaoru Abe - Solo 1972.4.11

 

Kaoru Abe - Solo 1972.1.21

 

After one spin of each I prefer the later but both are very fascinating

Disc 1: This set arrived today.  It's hard to believe that I paid just under 6 bucks after shipping and tax.  It is pretty fascinating to hear this after listening to a chunk of the Reprise box earlier today.

Yes, those Alladin Sessions were available in the late 70´s as a double LP on Bluenote LA-Series. 

Another one, which I like very much, was the Musidisc LP live at the Royal Roost 1948, also very much bop influenced. This must be the Lester Young who influenced Brew Moore so much.

Disc 1: Whenever I think that the financially smart thing to do would be to downgrade to the earlier Columbia sets, something grabs me and I know I am keeping this.  Yesterday it was the way the group hits with Blanton and Strayhorn's arrangements on Disc 7.  Today it is the opportunity to hear these soloists trade solos in such a loose setting.  The addition of Ceele Burke on steel guitar is brilliant.  This is a set that will continue to pay dividends the more I revisit it.

I love this way-beyond-the-ordinary three-tenor blowing session.

Good that George, Lonnie and Ronnie Cuber are still going strong !

Would this music have had a reason to exist without it being commissioned for a soundtrack? I know, every music comes into existence because of some kind of an impetus, but I have a hard time imagining Bud Shank creating these pieces to play at Donte's or wherever. Of course. I'm probably wrong.

No matter, everybody plays really well here. The rhythm trio is particularly locked in.

Does anybody have a quick/ready list of all the recording that Gary Peacock di for PJ in particular, or out on the WC in general?
