Danny Moss, born Redhill, Surrey UK, whose playing was described by Count Basie as " real Texas tenor ... the way it should sound!" 😀

He was on TV just the other week on that film of the Charlie Watts Big Band. An eclectic sax section with Evan Parker, Ray Warleigh, Bobby Wellins, Peter King and Olaf Vas - plus a young Courtney Pine.

The only Danny Moss recording I have I think is this LP, quite an obscure one. I believe that the lady he is featured with on the cover is his wife, singer Jeanie Lambe.

Reminds me of my brief chat with Howard Rumsey asking about Lee Morgan’s engagement at The Lighthouse. His comment - ‘Were you there?’  If so, I would have been in short trousers..😂

This one is slowly growing on me - sort of.

Now up - 

With the English trio. Signed on the front for me by Kirk, after a local gig.

Mention of Ray Warleigh reminds me of this one which features Jon Eardley on trumpet and has on bass my student days friend Danny Padmore, with whom I exchanged Christmas greetings a few days ago:

Yes, I remember that one on Spotlite. Never saw any of Chase’s groups - very popular with the jazz dance crowd of a few decades back. I did see Warleigh with Paz and a few times with Kenny Wheeler’s Orchestra.

This one on Jazz In Britain is worth seeking out.

Steve Kuhn & Toshiko Akiyoshi – The Country & Western Sound Of Jazz Pianos (Dauntless, 1963)

What a strange record this is. Such a strange combination of musicians too.

So great. Though my main interest always has been acoustic jazz, this was the music of my youth too. It was brand new when I was a young fan and naturally I dug not only 50´s and 60´s Miles and 60´s Hancock, but also this one.  We loved it , as we loved let´s say "Bitches Brew", "On the Corner"...., it was just the music of that time and it was still that kind of 10 years intervals of styles, as was swing in the 30´s, bop in the 40´s, hardbop in the 50´s, Free and Modal in the 60´s and Electrick Jazz in the 70´s .
