Kenny Burrell “Blue Lights, Vol. 1” Blue Note Japan SHM-CD

 

Simply stunning Cover Art .... every time again ...

[jazzbo]

This morning is nice and cool and Fiona is feeling feisty. We bobbed along around “the block” with a flashlight even before the songbirds were talking. This is a wonderful time of year.

Starting off with a new arrival:

Cannonball Adderley “POPPIN’ IN PARIS: LIVE AT L’OLYMPIA 1972” Elemental Music cd

This one is all about George Duke so far!

I heard one track on the radio, sounded really interesting, lots of Duke.

Jumala Quintet – Turtle Crossing

Veeeery good stuff

Nat King Cole “Live At The Blue Note Chicago” Iconic 2 cd set

Culled from TEN HOURS of recordings, this two cd set is great fun for Cole fans. Sound is decent enough. John Collins and Lee Young on board–which are definitely factors that made me make sure to corner a copy of this and luckily it wasn’t too hard.

On CD. Sound quality is better than I expected for live Sun Ra.

From what year is this? 

I got acquainted with the music of Sun Ra very early, let´s say even before I knew much about earlier jazz stiles like bop. 
It was there, it was happenin, and my first Sun Ra album was the ESP "Nothing Is" that I got second hand from a girl who emegrated to Brazilia. Sun Ra and a lotta other stuff that´s hot, like early electric Miles, Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane and so on, that was my start for jazz. 

I heard Sun Ra live in the late 70´s until around 80 with Gilmore and Allen in the band and June Tyson singin´. That´s where I first heard older jazz forms like Fletcher Henderson´s "Yeah Man" or similar stuff, as well as the more usual space age free jazz and space chants.....
