JSngry Posted February 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Perhaps not great, but what does that mean anyway? Nobody's profilin' or otherwise not being real, so, yeah, go ahead on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted February 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 It's a good band, but perhaps not the best presentation. But this kind of music in NYC in 1968..a hard sell. And produced for the Japanese market to boot...part of a "New Stream In Jazz" series. There could have been a more "hit you over the head" approach to the presentation and I'd not have minded in the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one sounds so fresh and ahead of its time it’s unbelievable. I can’t quite believe it wasn’t recorded in 2019 by a 16 year old auteur on a laptop. Those strings sound so up to date. This one, on the other hand, is definitely old, but evergreen in its own way, still inspired by your recent Hines/Rushing post: Earl Hines and Budd Johnson - The Dirty Old Men (Black and Blues, 1974) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Andres Boiarsky - Into The Light (Reservoir). I picked this up during one of Tommy's sales and it's pretty good. I had never heard of the leader but it has Paquito D'Rivera on alto, Claudio Roditi on trumpet and George Cables on piano so I didn't think it'd be bad.

Joe has become one of my favorite drummers over the past 10-15 years. His presence almost guarantees a high quality session.

I always try to go to any show when he is going to be in the drum chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Speaking of Farnsworth... Anthony Wonsey - The Thang (Sharp Nine). I always liked this label. I should have bought more of them when they were around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just no new releases in quite some time. But they made a number of fine recordings. https://www.sharpnine.com/#Home.php Now: The music is good, but the sound is mediocre at best. The sound seems flat and dull. There have been lots of recordings at the Vanguard with decent sound, so it's not the room at fault.
