Gheorghe Posted January 11 Report Posted January 11 15 hours ago, Kevin Bresnahan said: It looks like Ray Aichinger's "Guilty Pleasure" is only available for streaming here in the US. I wonder if it hasn't made it into his discogs discography because they list him as Raimund Aichinger and not as Ray Aichinger there? His real name ist Raimund ! On advertising and billing he is listed as "Ray". Because he calls himself Ray, I once suggested we play "Ray´s Idea" and many folks play it in F or ....Chet Baker recorded it in B flat, but Ray suggested D flat which is my favourite key for that tune. Billy Eckstine and Dizzy Gillespie recorded it in Db back in the 40´s. 15 hours ago, Kevin Bresnahan said: Quote

Gheorghe Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 13 hours ago, Peter Friedman said: Disc 1 This is a good album! I saw Don Menza at Jazzland at the times where I was in semi retirement due to some "just of those things"...., and he was great. Oliver Kent is a musical friend and I always state that he is my favourite piano player and composer here in Austria. On my homepage there is a pic of him an me getting copies of a jazz book..... Johannes Strasser is one of the really really great bass players in Ausria. He had played with so many greats. Some highlight was a wonderful concert with Chet Baker. Strasser had played some gigs with me when we both were very very young in our earlie twens..... Quote

jazzbo Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 I tried this one again, and took it out about 2/3 of the way through. The production kept rubbing me the wrong way. Just too much dub as well for me.
