Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 23 Report Posted March 23 13 hours ago, Peter Friedman said: Kenny Barron Ensemble - Table For Two My copy just came in. I haven't spun it yet nor perused the cookbook, but I hope to in the next few days. I'm the cook of the house for the next few weeks/months as my wife recuperates from surgery so I'm hoping there's an interesting (and easy) recipe in here. Now spinning - David Weiss Sextet - Auteur (Origin). David with a killer band of Myron Walden, Nicole Glover, David Bryant, Eric Wheeler & E.J. Strickland. Really enjoying the playing on this. Strickland is quite the drummer, with fun little accents here & there. I'm a bit bummed that I missed this band when they played at Scullers a little while back, but I had previous commitments. I hear it was a good show. Quote

SteepleChase SCS 1189 [Denmark 1984] oh what a line up ! Dannie is one of my earliest favourites, saw him 3 times with Mingus, later with others Yesterday: Like them both, but the Cliff Jordon-John Gilmore session does not have such a good recording sound like the Griffin album. I don´t know what was wrong with RVG on that day, since Horace Silver´s piano sounds outright tinny. That´s not RVG´s famous piano sound..... Quote
jazzbo Posted March 23 Report Posted March 23 Duke Ellington “At the Bal Masque” Columbia cd 500×500 39.7 KB Although Duke’s Orchestra did do a stint at the Bal Masque in Miami, this is a studio album. Ray Nance really sounds good on this one. My cd version is from this box set: 296×300 17.5 KB Quote

It is not one of my favorites. I played it to give it another try and was disappointed once more. There are many Blue Mitchell albums I much much prefer. Now playing: Quote
adh1907 Posted March 23 Report Posted March 23 Song for someone, Kenny Wheeler 2004 PSI edition. What a stunning record, mix of free and contemporary (as of 1973) jazz, but what a terrible mix! Someone needs to have another go at this and reissue it. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 24 Report Posted March 24 Starting off a little warmer morning with a great cd. . . Tom Harrell “Alternate Summer” HighNote This reminds me a bit of “Filles de Kilimanjaro” and “Miles in the Sky”. . .which is high praise from me. Quote

That mix is probably as good as it will be, unfortunately. There's an interesting writeup on all this in the new Wheeler biography (excellent). It was an early 8-track desk and there was strange placement of players and lots of bleed-through between tracks (Oxley in particular). The first mix was a disaster so Kenny brought Bob Cornford in to rework it, which did miracles apparently. From recollection the Incus LP mix has the same issues. Quote
