jazzbo Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 'Twas a hot night, the window unit was on all night. I got six hours in and now the unit is off and I’m going to listen for a while since it’s cool for a spell. Starting off with another disc from the “Enjoying the Ride” sixtieth anniversary Grateful Dead box set, thie earliest one I’ve played yet, Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Uniondale, NY (3/16/73), disc 1 140×105 3.9 KB Quote
jazzbo Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 (edited) Wanted to hear some Dexter after seeing an hour long “documentary” “Before Midnight” about the making of the film “Round Midnight.” Dexter Gordon “Montmartre 1964” Storyville cd Dexter Gordon (ts & vo) Tete Montoliu (p) Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (b) Alex Riel (dr) Recorded at Jazzhus Montmarte 1964 Edit to add: this is one of the really good live Dexters of the period. Tete and Dexter both make some great quotes, and Bobby Timmons should be flattered. NHOP is so well-presented here and this trio makes a pocket that Dexter seems to enjoy sitting in. I find this is one of those few discs that sound better with the "Phase" in the "Out" position on my DAC. Edited June 22 by jazzbo Quote
jazzbo Posted June 22 Report Posted June 22 Chick Corea & Origin “Change” Stretch cd Corea’s work with Origin remains one of my favorites of his. This session precedes the recordings at the Blue Note club; the band is the same except Adam Cruz replaces Jeff Ballard on drums at the Blue Note. Chick Corea – piano, marimba, handclapping Avishai Cohen – double bass Jeff Ballard – drums, handclapping Bob Sheppard – bass clarinet, flute, baritone saxophone, soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone Steve Wilson – clarinet, flute, alto saxophone, soprano saxophone Steve Davis – trombone Quote

I'd love to have it on vinyl or CD. 10 hours ago, ghost of miles said: The two records that Hank Jones made for Black & Blue with Duvivier and Dawson -- Compassion and Bluesette -- are soooooooo good.

jazzbo Posted June 23 Report Posted June 23 “For The Last Time - Ruby Braff’s Historic Final Performance With Scott Hamilton” Arbors 2 cd set, disc 1 I pulled a handful of Ruby Braff cds from the shelves and will listen to them over the next weeks. He was a continuously interesting player, always seriously working the traditional jazz field with sincere aritstry. He certainly ended his performing career on a high point with these recordings.
