Except, of course, for the standards, where there are any. I don't have Drum Fusion or Transfusion or A Different Journey. More for the list. I do have The Chico Hamilton Special -- but Lloyd didn't contribute any compositions to that date. Quote

For my wife (and me🙂) She loves Chet 😍 The Coltrane set is really good. Not sure why Impulse didn't release the show in the early 70s. Sound quality isn't stellar as the original tapes were lost and is taken from producer Ed Michel's reference tapes. Quote

Forgot about that one, probably because it's not a favorite. But those others...yeah! I like to tell people "don't sleep on Chico Hamilton!" That guy is deeper than a casual listen suggests, if only for the drumming itself. Quote

Also On This Night. That one maybe gets underappreciated. Most of them have actually held up really well though. However...Fire Music and Four For Trane might be of more historical importance than Shepp importance once his pre-Impulse work gets familiar? Quote

On this Night, yeah! Historically and great music, love Fire Music and Four for Trane, but I like the Shepp Impulse!'s that fly under the radar, like For Losers, Live in San Francisco, Attica Blues, and Mama Too Tight. The Savoy material with Bill Dixon should be made more readily available (have the Atlantic/Savoy issue of Shepp/Dixon 7tette/Cont 5, but not the quartet issue , which is some gray-area issue). Quote

Even in a very, VERY strong run, this one stands out for me The older I get, the more I realize just how much of a TOTAL badass Coleman Hawkins was, and not just about music. Like, how much of a badass about life he had to be to get to be that much of a badass in music. Not always true for everybody, and more true for Hawk than for many! Quote

jazzbo Posted August 6 Report Posted August 6 Sneaking a few listens in this cool morning before I have to go back to the dealership with my car. Starting off with the expanded Charles Mingus “The Carnegie Hall Concert–Deluxe Edition,” Rhino 2 cd set, disc 1–the newly released first part of the concert. The sound is so good! A reissue truly done right! Quote

I'm somewhat surprised it's still out there. PD cuts off at 1962 in the EU so 1966 is way outside of that so when the estate of a musician questions a release, that's usually all it takes to get it pulled. Quote

I see their vinyl releases go for 100+ euros sometimes. Quote
