Joe McPhee Featuring John Snyder and Makaya Ntshoko – The Willisau Concert

Ken Nordine Featuring The Fred Katz Group – Word Jazz

I guess that this was something of a model for Tom Waits.

Some West Coast big band sounds (soundtrack)

[HutchFan]

Earlier:

Baden Powell - Canto on Guitar (MPS, 1971)
Powell's music continues to blow me away.

 

Now:

Laurindo Almeida with Salli Terri (mezzo-sop) & Martin Ruderman (fl) - Duets with the Spanish Guitar (Angel; originally issued on Capitol in 1958)

This is such a terrific album.  Salli Terri's soaring voice is perhaps the most memorable thing about it.  She sings on half the cuts; the others feature flutist Martin Ruderman.  . . . The Almeida-Terri pairing on this LP anticipates music that Baden Powell would make in the early-70s with French singer Janine De Waleyne.  She's featured on Powell's Images on Guitar and appeared on a few more of his albums around that time.

Art Pepper / Shelly Manne – Pepper Manne

Does anyone know the story behind this one? I had assumed it was a Shelly Manne does Afro-Cuban record. Is it just a half and half or are these reissues? There seems to be very little info out there.

I dunno, but Shelly's Afro-Cuban beat on the "2-3-4 " album is so solid, it inspired me to write a chart on it. What a drummer!

Ron Carter is one of my favourite bassists from the first moment on (I am a kid of the times of VSOP Quintet) and Ron´s unique bass sound on all those 70´s acoustic mostly when people became interested again in acoustic instruments....
I think he had a very unique bass style, not "hornlike phrasings" like Chambers and Co had, but more a bass-bound solo play. 

I must admit I have not the slightest idea who the sidemen are. 
The time when I heard Ron Carter frequently was  mostly the CBS and Milestone "Family" of Artists....., mostly All Star contexts.....

Even his own group was only stars: Ron with Kenny Barron, Ben Riley, Buster Williams......

This seems to mention that the Manne tracks used to be separate. What were the Art Pepper tracks on?
