jazzbo Posted January 13, 2021 Report Posted January 13, 2021 Need some soothing after watching Congressional debate. Rita Reys "Sings Antonio Carlos Jobim" Definitely a chill pill cd. Quote

HutchFan Posted January 13, 2021 Report Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) Michael Garrick Band - Home Stretch Blues (Argo/Vocalion, 1972) I love this -- and all of Garrick's records with Norma Winstone. 14 hours ago, Gheorghe said: Easy Living is one of the great Sonny Rollins albums of the 70´s. When I saw Rollins live in 1979, he played "Isn´t She Lovely" from that recent album. That was a great band with Marc Soskin, Jerome Harris and Al Foster...... Wish I could have seen/heard that! I only had the opportunity to see Sonny one time, about ten years ago. Unfortunately, it was at an auditorium here in Atlanta with very poor acoustics, and I was sitting near the back of the hall. A less than ideal experience ...but at least I got to see him perform. Edited January 13, 2021 by HutchFan Quote

I actually saw the Garrick ‘Home Stretch Blues’ lineup back in the 2000s. It was for a BBC broadcast and pretty sure that all of the lineup were still then present. Sadly, Don Rendell and Michael Garrick are no longer with us but the rest of the band are still active. Quote

Another concert that I would've loved to have heard. I wonder if there's a recording of the concert you saw in the BBC's archives -- and, if so, will it ever see the light of day? I think Garrick was brilliant, unique. Edited January 13, 2021 by HutchFan Quote

Albums like this should be recognised as funk classics. As you say, Mr. Muhammad makes it. 1 hour ago, Tom 1960 said: I was listening to this earlier. Damn it's good. Quote

Believe it or not, it was a Poetry show, so they did some jazz and poetry ! Should be in the BBC archives. I had a ticket to see a subsequent broadcast they did at BBC Maida Vale Studios but sadly, couldn’t make it. Quote
Brad Posted January 13, 2021 Report Posted January 13, 2021 I saw this cd in my weekly email from Dusty Groove but by the time I got to the website, it was gone. Found it on Discogs. Incredible lineup: Dizzy, Max Roach, Stan Getz, Jackie McLean, Phil Woods, Bags, Hank Jones and Percy Heath. And equally good music. Quote
Bluesnik Posted January 13, 2021 Report Posted January 13, 2021 I only found this one of the release I have. A Conn. Quote
