JSngry Posted October 14, 2020 Author Report Posted October 14, 2020 Joe's last BFT put me on the trail of this delightfully natural music. Prices are all over the place, apparently, no idea why, but I found a good deal, and so can you! Quote
jazzbo Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 I'm enjoying exploring The Heliocentrics. Incorporates modern elements I like and nods back to past forms I enjoy. "Out There" The Heliocentrics Quote

Gheorghe Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 It was this quartet I saw live when I first heard Dizzy in my teens. Great quartet with Rodney Jones, the legendary Benjamin Franklin Brown on el-b, and the great Mickey Roker on drums. On the second CD Leo Wright is added to the regular quartet. I saw Dizzy some years later again with a quartet consisting of Ed Cherry, Mike Howell and veterane drummer J.C. Heard. The next time it was a Dizzy Allstars quintet with Harold Land, George Cables, Herbie Lewis and Louis Hayes. And the last time was in 1987 a special 70´s birthyday Big Band...... So many memories of great Dizzy performances. Quote
Justin V Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 Just finished: Now playing: My last listen to this was before I was bitten by the Konitz bug. Quote

So many memories of great Dizzy performances. My history of seeing Dizzy stretched from 1959 when I saw him with his Have Trumpet Will Excite quintet of Les Spann, Junior Mance, Sam Jones and Lex Humphries at the St George's Hall, Bradford UK via the Giants of Jazz tour with Stitt, Winding, Monk, McKibbon and Blakey which I saw at the Dominion Theatre, Tottenham Court Road, London to the United Nations Orchestra with Paquito D'Rivera, Claudio Roditi, Arturo Sandoval and others which I saw at the Odeon Cinema, Manchester in 1991.

jazzbo Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) Not the greatest disc but I'm going to see it through. . . . Chris Connor "I Miss You So" Atlantic I lied. I couldn't make it through. A really loud, bad transfer and the music was great for taking a nap. . . . Right now Jackie And Roy "Sing Baby Sing!" from the 2 cd Muzak/Japan set of the complete Storyville Recordings. I dig it. Edited October 14, 2020 by jazzbo Quote
jazzbo Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 I bought this when it first came out and really didn't listen to it. Not at all my a favorite era of Dead. But I'm giving it a go. Grateful Dead "Ready or Not" Quote
