Kresten Osgood "Hammond Rens" cd 1

Nice music to watch the sparse snowfall. Dr. Lonnie Smith is taking no prisoners.

I need to try it again. I wasn't that into it the first time I heard it.

Rab,

Is that your reaction to Solal in general?  Or is it just this particular LP?

Just wondering.

A mix. I love Solal with Konitz (really love - some of my favourite tunes and albums) but I am otherwise allergic to him.

Currently on:

Tjader Plays Mambo (Fantasy, 1954)

Not my favourite Tjader Fantasy, but good enough. I love the simplicity of the cover.

Interesting.  I've noticed that many (most?) listeners have STRONG reactions to Solal's music.  Very positive or very negative.  Like super-strong coffee.    

I suppose it's obvious that I think he's the bee's knees.  

It sounds like you might be one of the few in the middle -- with a "Konitz clause."

Me too.

But this LP is my MOST favorite Konitz / Solal collaboration:

 

One of my desert-island discs, for sure.

I'm a devotee of European Episode on Campi. 

In terms of just a track, rather than the whole record, their version of Just Friends on Satori is really up there for me.

You'll get no argument from me on that.  I think Satori is a masterpiece from start to finish.
