mjazzg Posted April 23 Report Posted April 23 1 hour ago, Rabshakeh said: I generally dislike JBL. Luckily he sits out for a lot of it. I find that when he does play (so far, i am only half way through) it is at least nicely tempered to the music. Not Lewis's normal Coltraneisms and narrative difficulty, although that does show up a little (as I type he is fouling up "Only Sometimes" a bit). Maybe it will get worse in the second half. What are the other Guidi records you recommend? I don't know him at all. I picked this one to listen to because you made a passing comment a few days ago about ECM albums with colourful covers. 'City Of Broken Dreams' is the one for me although I like the other recordings by the trio. This gives a different perspective and is definitely worth a spin https://www.discogs.com/master/1300627-Giovanni-Guidi-Gianluca-Petrella-Louis-Sclavis-Gerald-Cleaver-Ida-Lupino Quote

Horace Tapscott, Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra “Live at IUCC 11/25/79” disc 2 Don’t know if you’re listening to them chronologically but if you are we’re exactly at the same disc 😇 I fully agree with you: worth every cent. Huge diversity between all the discs. Must say that this very one is probably the one I like a little less than the others from the series. Quote

I listened to them in the batches as they were mailed out. . . and I'm now re-listening. I won't say this one is a favorite but it is far from my least favorite so far--the way it is recorded presents a fascinating tableau on my system, I dig it. Quote
jazzbo Posted April 23 Report Posted April 23 Tom Harrell “Prana Dance” High Note cd Tom’s run on High Note has been great. Tom Harrell – trumpet, flugelhorn, producer Wayne Escoffery – soprano and tenor saxophones, producer Danny Grissett – piano, Fender Rhodes Ugonna Okegwo – bass Johnathan Blake – drums Quote

It’s hard to describe but the fact that it’s not all exactly balanced and that church feeling gives you the feeling you’re right there seeing them playing live. The multiple basses on some of the recordings also add up to that particular sound. And it all does sound very clear. Great stuff Quote
