sidewinder Posted March 28, 2020 Report Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Another excellent Muse compilation of 4 LPs on Camden. The ‘Peruvian Blue’ album has an extremely early (1980) appearance by Steve Nelson. 17 hours ago, jazzcorner said: Have those 2 vinyls on RCA Rich,Buddy Buddy Rich at Ronnie Scott`s 1971 RCA 5012 Rich,Buddy Rich in London 1972 RCA 4666 Here are the tracks: The UK 2LP issue on RCA was called ‘Very Alive at Ronnie Scotts’. The Mosaic Single CD omits some of the band intro spiel at the end. Edited March 28, 2020 by sidewinder Quote

How "modern" Hawkins sounds in his brilliant long solo on "Bird of Prey Blues"! Even double-tempo runs! Reminds me that back in the days when all music was on vinyl someone said that if you played a latter-day Hawk L P at 45 rpm, it sounded like Bird. Heard that one before? Quote

Heard that one before? Heard it and tried it, on the "Moonglow" solo from that 1957 Newport record. It sounded like Bird in every way but the tone and accents...pretty big differences there, but if the intended point was just to point out that Hawk was ahead of the curve in terms of introducing an element of chromaticism into jazz improvisation(and as a result altering the length and contours of the lines), then it's a sound point that can be applied beginning several decades earlier!
