Not a million miles off the more famous Quartet Afterstorm record, which is pretty similar. Now on this one, which goes well beyond the Criss Cross standard fare: Orrin Evans – Listen To The Band Quote
mikeweil Posted March 1 Report Posted March 1 I love this album so much! I'm really glad I finally got a copy a month or two ago. Sound is much better than on most jazz recordings. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 1 Report Posted March 1 Arrived yesterday this newly discovered release by Ella Fitzgerald. . . . “Moment of Truth: Ella at the Coliseum” Verve cd 526×525 28.3 KB Tapes were unearthed in the private tape collection of Verve Records founder Norman Granz - mixed directly from 4-track tapes recorded by Wally Heider - resulting in higher-fidelity audio than most ‘lost’ recordings. This album Includes the first Ella recordings of the hit songs “Alfie” and “Music to Watch Girls By” and her band features the rarely-heard but hard-swinging trio of Jimmy Jones, Bob Cranshaw and Sam Woodyard. The Ellington band captured here was at its peak, featuring Cat Anderson, Cootie Williams, Harry Carney, Paul Gonsalves, Jimmy Hamilton, Johnny Hodges and Russell Procope. Quote

Harpist Brandee Younger is also featured on five of the album’s tracks. Quote

Pim Posted March 2 Report Posted March 2 volume 3. I’d say this one is less interesting than 2. It misses the fire of the second volume. Sound is also a little less good. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 2 Report Posted March 2 Tubby Hayes “Tubby’s back in Town” Limelight/Classic Records gold cd There’s an earlier Columbia cd that has more material, but boy it doesn’t sound as good as this Classic Records disc does! Quote
