Is that as good as it's title and cover art suggest?

It is actually good, unironically. It is basically a hi fi record but it really pops and is full of big blaring stereoscopic ideas.

I've been exploring studio system jazz records for a month or two now. A lot of them are very dreary corporate affairs, but then you do hit some amazing records sometimes.

TTK is the resident expert of course.

Thanks, I had a quick stream and it did sound interesting

TTK is to be deferred to most definitely

👍 - with Carmell Jones (tp) and Joe Henderson (ts)!

Conrad Herwig - The Latin Side Of Joe Henderson (Half Note). I do enjoy this one, but then again, with Lovano on tenor & Cuber on bari, how could it be bad?

Moody (James Moody) “4A” IPO Records cd

What a trio behind Moody: Kenny Barron, Todd Coolman, Lewis Nash

Still believe that the first "Latin Side Of ...." dealing with John Coltrane was the strongest effort .... or was this music just better suited for "latinisation" 🧐🤔 ....

Looking at the back cover, this appears to be a Marty Sheller joint.

Aptly titled Dave Holland gem ....

Yeah, that and three other tunes. It's a shame that the description doesn't mention him,
but the comments from Everland are a bit strange at times.

It's enough to make one consider that the leaders are fictitious characters and that the whole thing is a Sheller shadow project.

It is particularly interesting to hear Sonny Stitt play baritone sax on 4 of the tracks on this album.
