jazzbo Posted March 12 Report Posted March 12 The way the system sounds today made me want to hear this Tatum material again–it is so well mastered that listening to these three masters seems such a joy. Art Tatum “Jewels from the Treasure Box: The 1953 Chicago Blue Note Jazz Club Recordings” Resonance Records 3 cd set, disc 2 Quote

Rabshakeh Posted March 12 Report Posted March 12 (edited) Roach Om – Universal Expressions - Poetess Does anyone know anything about this record? Even the identity of the poet? She's not the greatest poet but it is very interesting to hear a jazz poet from this period take her lyrical approach, which is really quite different to most poets working in this area at the time. I had heard somewhere that the band might be Juju. Not sure what that is based on. Edited March 12 by Rabshakeh Quote

jazzbo Posted March 12 Report Posted March 12 Billie Holiday “Lady in Satin” Centennial Edition, Columbia/Legacy 3 cd edition, disc 1 This is a sad album, I don’t play it often because. . . it was Billie’s last release and sad but powerful in its way, deserving of the praise and attention it reieeves. This three cd set has a lot of extras: outtakes, alternate takes, even a performance from Sound of Jazz. Also the presentation of the original release here sounds perhaps the best I’ve heard digitally. Quote
