Gheorghe Posted February 12 Report Posted February 12 20 hours ago, jazzbo said: "Classic Don Byas Sessions 1944-1946" Mosaic Records 10 cd set, disc V1 Some great Sammy Benskin on piano, and early Monk. Don Byas is great! I am not sure if he made many albums, I have the Savoy double album, and a Black Lion album "Anthropology". Last night I spinned 2 albums: Freddie Hubbard at Keystone is great, wonderful live stuff. I like very much that great composition "First Light", and that live version of "Red Clay". On the other hand, my very very very favourite generally in music, Pharoah Sanders sometimes played just straight ahead music and was top in that field too: Here he does old stuff like "On A Misty Night". But I like most the title tune "Heart is a Melody" even if it´s borrowed from "The Creator" , and the great "We goin´to Africa". Quote

I am not sure if he made many albums, I have the Savoy double album, and a Black Lion album "Anthropology". He made quite a few recordings. What I loved about this disc was the Monk piano, and the wonderful playing of pianist Sammy Benskin who didn't record nearly enough. Now on to Don Rendell Ian Carr “Live” Universal Japan lp facsimile SHM-CD Bass – Dave Green Drums – Trevor Tomkins Piano – Michael Garrick Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet – Don Rendell Trumpet, Flugelhorn – Ian Carr I just want to note that the engineering on this Carr-Rendell cd (original recording and excellent digital mastering) is superb. Natural and dynamic sound, and the recording of Garrick’s piano is excellent. Edited February 12 by jazzbo Quote
