So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[HutchFan]

NP:

Disc 2 - originally released as Sensacion

 

[jazzcorner]

George Shearing day today

[John Tapscott]

[Peter Friedman]

[Rabshakeh]

 

The Sam Rivers Quartet with Anthony Braxton playing on Live San Francisco 1978.

A really good performance, and a real kick to hear such different musicians play against each other. This time with added tuba.

It also has a rare chance to hear Rivers comping on piano behind a horn player - something that I don't think I have heard before.

I think it is just a boot, but it sounds fantastic and could really do with a formal release. I think that Ricochet, one of the recent live releases on NoBusiness, came from the same residency.

Listening to this now, fascinating.  I hope it's on No Business's radar

I like that one, John.

(Have only seen Slide once, in 1984 in an interesting lineup: Jimmy Deuchar (tpt), Slide (tbn), Johnny Griffin (tnr), Dave Cliff (gtr), Peter Ind (bs), Al Levitt (dms).)

P.S. Forgot I also saw him in the Dizzy Gillespie United Nations Orchestra in 1991.

Big John Patton's Accent on the Blues (Blue Note, 1969)

For some reason I like this one a lot more than Boogaloo. 

Now listening to:

Marchin' On by the Heath Brothers (Strata-East 1975).

Me too.  On most days, Accent is my favorite BJP.

 

 

NP:

Gary Thomas & Seventh Quadrant - Code Violations (Enja)

Good thing Gary Thomas is so tough.  You GOTTA be tough to walk with a puma on a leash among the pyramids.

In all seriousness, this music is badass.
