ghost of miles Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 (edited) 35 minutes ago, T.D. said: That is a superlative entry in the series! I have a copy of the massive History of European Jazz book on the way and am eager to look for further discussion of the artists featured on SJ 18 (which has superb annotations in and of itself). Thinking about brewing up a Night Lights episode devoted to this release. Current listening--this early-1960s end-of-a-love-affair concept album, the last of Nat King Cole's four collaborations with arranger Gordon Jenkins: Edited February 3 by ghost of miles Quote

jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 My wife fell asleep early and I turned in but woke up and had trouble going back to sleep so I’m doing some listening. I pulled out a Sun Ra reissue from last decade I had little memory of and it’s an interesting date. No bass player, which creates an interesing “space” in the music, sort of wish Ronnie Boykns was present. A radio broadcast from the Philadelpphia period which is one of the final Ra periods I am really interested in. Lots of Ra piano and good Gilmore and Allen playing. Sun Ra “Of Abstract Dreams” Strut cd Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 On to another Sun Ra, “When Angles Speak of Love” Myth Science cd This material is from 1963 and rather “out there” but an interesting sonic experience. Suits the hour and my mood. This is very 1963 exploratory jazz, sounds like a time capsule to me. Sun Ra: piano, Clavioline, gong Walter Miller: trumpet Marshall Allen: oboe, alto sax, percussion Danny Davis: alto sax John Gilmore: tenor sax, percussion Pat Patrick: baritone sax, percussion Robert Cummings: bass clarinet Ronnie Boykins: bass Clifford Jarvis: drums Tommy “Bugs” Hunter: drums (?), percussion, tape reverb, engineer Ensemble: vocals Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 Duke Ellington and his Orchestra “Newport '58” Mosaic cd An early morning shift to Ellington. Ellington the trickster magician musical painter. After decades of listening to his music putting one of his recordings on to spin is an immediate transition to his colorful world of grace, sinuosity and sass. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 I’ve been wanting to pull this out and listen to this epic length “tune” for two weeks or so. Finally ready. Bob Dylan “Murder Most Foul,” from “Rough and Rowdy Ways” the second disc. Sony Japan 2 cd set. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 Mario Adnet “Jobiim Jazz” Adventure Music cd Adventure Music has a consistently excellent house sound to their releases and I wanted to hear how it is presented in the system today. Mario Adnet is an excellent player and arranger and I share his love for Jobim’s music–this is a wonderful listen. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 (edited) On to Tom Harrell “Oak Tree” High Note cd I love Tom Harrell’s music more and more. Re-listening to his discs they seem to open up to me and reveal new subtle “cool” aspects. I really like all his High Note releases. Edited February 3 by jazzbo Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 Milt Jackson and John Coltrane “Bags & Trane” Atlantic cd WEA Japan Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 Chick Corea & Origin “A Week at the Blue Note” 6 cd box set, disc 2 Quote
HutchFan Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 (edited) Still more Stanley Cowell. This time as a sideman. Charles Tolliver - Mosaic Select 20 Disc 1 - originally released as Live at Slugs', Vols. 1 & 2 on Strata-East Edited February 3 by HutchFan Quote
jazzbo Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 Cal Tjader “Catch the Groove: Live at the Penthouse 1962-1967” Jazz Detective 2 cd set, disc 2 Quote
JSngry Posted February 3 Author Report Posted February 3 You can definitely hear the Jimmy Scott influence here, splendidly so. Quote
