duaneiac Posted June 7, 2020 Report Posted June 7, 2020 Earlier: Currently: Beautiful version of "Some Other Time" on this one. It's been too long since I have revisited any titles in this Maybeck Hall series. Some really satisfying music by some of the world's greatest jazz pianists was preserved for us on these discs.. I wonder if there were any concerts left in the vaults by the time Concord ended the run of releases. There are certainly some pianists I wish had been recorded in this setting back in those days, such as Ray Bryant, Art Hodes, Mulgrew Miller, Sir Charles Thompson, Dorothy Donegan, Tommy Flanagan, Don Pullen. Quote
HutchFan Posted June 7, 2020 Report Posted June 7, 2020 Deeply soulful, brilliant, uncategorizable music. Quote

JSngry Posted June 7, 2020 Author Report Posted June 7, 2020 I get that it was mostly DeJohnette's thing, but listening today, one could be forgiven for thinking that it was in places a Bob Moses thing! I'm finding myself still liking it, even if with eye-rollings at any number of given moments. Too bad Harold Vick never played on a Marvin Gaye record. Quote

duaneiac Posted June 7, 2020 Report Posted June 7, 2020 Julie London is probably still damned underrated as a singer. What a shame. Nina Simone's version is a favorite as well. Quote
JSngry Posted June 7, 2020 Author Report Posted June 7, 2020 Jeanne Lee sighting! Harold Vick is the reason to listen to this record, imo. Otherwise, it's proof that having a good idea is not enough. But yeah, HArold Vick got a wah-wah and he DOES know how to use it! But who the hell was Lou Courtney?!?!?!?!? What kind of hustle did THIS guy have going on? Do I really want to know? but even more...this whole Riverside/Orpheum thing takes an unexpected turn and Lou Courney and his buddy Robert Bateman are in the mix! and Robert Bateman can take us to Trevor Lawrence who certainly DID play on a Marvin Gaye record, oh yes he did! But, as great as he was on it, can you also hear Harold Vick playing all over in and around Trouble Man? I SURE as hell can! So yes, you can use this Compost record to get to the Marvin Gaye record that Harold Vick certainly could have played on to great effect, imo. Life IS Round!!!!!   Quote
