After lurking here for several years I'm very happy to have my own username finally minted. I just wanted to relate my gratitude for all the reccomendations, I have been turned on to so many great artists and recordings going through these pages. Seriously this site is a gem!

Eero Koivistoinen Music Society – Wahoo! (RCA, 1973)

R-889006-1253903056.jpg.f6948dee2bcafeb106d3e8ac48bb0661.jpg

Some jazz funk from the Finnish 1970s. 

I am not sure what Sabu Martinez was doing in Finland at the time, but what ever it was he was certainly doing it.

I was a longtime-lurker myself (from the time of the Funny Rat thread), then I finally decided to get involved over lockdown. Welcome!

Bobby Watson & Horizon - The Inventor (Blue Note, 1990)

IMO, Watson's music has an irresistible, swaggering charisma about it.  

 

Fond memories of seeing that band, playing some of that album too. ‘Post Motown Bop’ another really good one.

Nice!  I've never seen Watson perform.  Hope to rectify that some day.  ;) 

re: Post Motown Bop -- I love that record too.  It might even be my "desert-island pick" for Watson.

Dunno, haven't found any specific info nor do I know if he recorded more with the WDR.

Perhaps he was touring with an American band and Carmen pegged him for that chair?

Rod Williams - Hanging in the Balance (Muse, 1989)

I dig this. Rod Williams' compositions are interesting, and the Marty Ehrlich - Graham Haynes front line sounds really good.

I like these Jackie and Roy albums with vibes.

I agree, jazzbo.  J&R's voices and arrangements work very well with vibes.

Listening particularly to the title track, which is a fascinating lengthy piece.
