jazzbo Posted July 31 Posted July 31 A dark and still and cool morning! I woke up ready to hear some music. Found another by this group that I could afford, and it’s a good one! So this is my first spin: Jazz is Dead “Great Sky River” Zebra cd Quote
jazzbo Posted July 31 Posted July 31 For decades I have wanted to like this one more than I actually do. I like it a little more year by year. This edition sure sounds great. Cannonball Adderley (with Bill Evans) “Know What I Mean” Analogue Productions SACD Quote

This edition sure sounds great. Cannonball Adderley (with Bill Evans) “Know What I Mean” Analogue Productions SACD When it comes to Cannonball, I play this the most... "Somethin' Else" probably the second most. I agree that this SACD sounds great. I also know that there are "drier" versions out there, including the regular OJC CD, but to me, the slight amount of reverb gives it a more vintage sound which I think suits the recording just fine.

Interesting. .. I like so many other Cannonballs much better. . . later ones. I think he was an amazing artist and his evolution was fascinating. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted July 31 Posted July 31 My favorite Cannonball is from the period with Victor Feldman or Joe Zawinul on piano. I especially like the recordings with Yusef Lateef in the group. Quote
HutchFan Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Carol Sloane - But Not for Me (Sony Japan, 1987) with Frank Wess, Tommy Flanagan, George Mraz, and Al Foster Quote

jazzbo Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Shabaka (Hutchings) “Of the Earth” Shabaka cd Hutchings wrote, produced, performed, and mixed the entire album entirely on his own. Shabaka Hutchings back on saxophone! Lots of loops and woodwinds and percussion. I like it. Quote
