The duo with N-H O. Pedersen aka "Old Folks" a highlight ....

I don´t have this one, but I have some Steeplechase of Dex, some with Tete Montoliu, and my favourite is those two albums with Jackie McLean (The Meeting, The Source). But tastes are different and especially on those later Steeplechases I just can´t stand him anymore. Too many solos, and quite a lot of clichés , all them double grips with glissando, well and all those years with Oscar Peterson, well I prefer other European Bass players, Pierre Michelot, Günther Lenz from Germany is great, Peter Trunk when he was alive, or the legendary John Heart or so from UK . 

I think I have one more Steeplechase of Dex but exactly because NHOP is NOT on it. It´s one that has Sam Jones on bass and Al Foster on drums, so that´s the musicians I really like.....

I can hear you, as  N-H Orsted Pedersen played on a lot of platters from the mid 70's onward .... btw his duo recording with Archie Shepp  "Looking At Bird" and the Dexter Gordon Trio gig "Lullaby For A Monster" (both on SteepleChase) are treasurous ....

Well I don´t really buy much records, I think I didn´t buy those you mentioned because I was afraid it will be too much NHOP, I think I picked up the "Bitin the Apple" because it had other players, and Shepp playing Bird tunes I have one that is made in France in the late 70´s with one piano player I love very much: Siegfried Kessler, plus Bob Cunningham and Clifford Jarvis, I think I bought it then because it has the same personnel like the date Shepp played at "Kongresshaus", it was also them four. 
I love the way he plays "Parker´s Mood" and "Au Privave", that´s first rate modern bop......

About buying records I concentrate now on fellow musicians, I wanna here what they do on ther own albums, and I wanna give em support  buying them their records....thats some hot stuff they do.

Stan Getz “In Stockholm” Verve Originals cd

Now playing:

Etta Jones - My Mother's Eyes (Muse, 1978)

Etta is so soulful. . . . Rufus Reid is prominent in the mix.  He sounds great too.

 

[Dub Modal]

Kynard's Afro-disiac

Love the band on this one: Purdie, Green, Person & Jimmy Lewis.

👍 - as Verve POCJ-2718 [Japan 1999] on my shelf

[HutchFan]

Bruce Gertz - Red Handed (Double Time, 1999)
I have several Gertz albums, but this one is my favorite.  Killer band.  Strong compositions.  Lots of personality.

 

[soulpope]

Terumasa Hino "Hogiuta" (East Wind) 1976 .... definitely a Cecil McBee master class ....

[soulpope]

Paul Motian "Le Voyage" (ECM) 1979 ..... another bass master class, this time from J. F. Jenny-Clark ....
