Peter Friedman Posted October 30, 2020 Report Posted October 30, 2020 Contrary to Larry's comments, I very much like Bill Charlap. His more recent Blue Note recordings are not his best. His Criss Cross and many Venus sessions are one I find highly enjoyable. Quote
Gheorghe Posted October 30, 2020 Report Posted October 30, 2020 Two nice albums from the BN 1500 series. Jimmy Smith with Kenny Burrell , Lou Donaldson and Art Blakey, Hank Mobley with Art Farmer and Horace Silver..... timeless "hard bop" Quote
jazzbo Posted October 30, 2020 Report Posted October 30, 2020 I got an early start today, then got interrupted, and I'm back at it. I started with Lee Morgan, "Lee Morgan Sextet" on Blue Note 24 bit by RVG Japan cd. Lee plays very well, with I suppose Horace Silver arranging and Hank Mobley . . . the playing and setting of both made me think of Monk. A few tracks are better than the others. Followed that one up with "Jams 2--The Two Tenors"--James Moody and Mark Turner, Warner Bros. At times reminding me of Griff 'n Lock, at times Marsh and Konitz, with a dash of Monkeloniousness added by Larry Goldings. Sometimes it seems as if I hear an echo of Monk in many recordings I choose. I wanted to get away from thinking of Monk and succeded with the great Pablo recording, "Dizzy Gillepsie's Big 4." Mickey Roker is the secret ingredient that makes the rise on a number of these Pablo "encounters." He is so controlled yet tastefully tailors the foundation. A master. Quote

gmonahan Posted October 30, 2020 Report Posted October 30, 2020 Local record store (Music Millennium) had a bunch of these Avid comps for sale, so I got a few, including this one. Gotta love Toots! Now, there's an artist whose stuff is spread out all over the place. I have some of this already somewhere, and I'll figure that out at some point, but I'm enjoying it right now! Quote
