Continuing my recent Charles Earland kick with one of his best:

 

 

Oh yeah! 

 

I´ve never heard of Charles Earland, but Freddie Hubbard and Joe Henderson are my favourites.....

Maybe the to me completly unknown leader her was not well known in Europe ?

A cool morning punctuated with the wonderful sound of intermittent owl hoots.

Starting off with

Fort Apache Jazz Band “Pensativo” Milestone cd

 

[jazzbo]

Jon Hendricks “Salud! Joao Gilberto, Originator of the Bossa Nova” Reprise/Muzak Japan lp facsimile cd

 

 

A very nice listen. . . the mastering on these Muzak Records reissues from Japan is wonderful.

It seems that I had a wrong start with Dollar Brand.

It was in 1979 at an international Jazz Festival (greats like Elvin Jones, Alphonse Mouzon Electric band, Larry Coryell, Sonny Rollins, Joe Henderson, Chet Baker, Woody Herman) and on one of the 3 days that program had started with Dollar Brand Orchestra, but after 5 minutes I left and went out to wait for the next band, since there was nothing happening, at least of what could reach me , it was him standing in front of an Orchestra and it was some thing that always repeated itself, no stuff of big band what I might like (Sun Ra for example)......

Yes, I listened to 'The Balance' earlier today, a fine later album.

I also have to thank @Pimfor his championing of 'Echoes From Africa' which I added to the collection recently.

Earland was (primarily) a Hammond B3 organist -- comparable to other post-Jimmy Smith players like Groove Holmes, Lonnie Smith, Jack McDuff, et al. 

Earland had a big hit -- and crossover success -- in 1970 with his album Black Talk!

That’s a great one Chuck with a legendary band including Don Cherry, Hamiet Bluiett, Johnny Dyani, John Betsch, Roy Brooks and Carlos Ward. The Hajj is one hypnotic trip. Do you know ‘African Space Program’? That’s a record with some similarities to this one. Also highly recommended.
