Just listened to this one: I could kick myself for not going to see Moran when he performed in a neighbouring town about five years ago .... 👍 I saw him in Göttingen on November 7, 2009. After his performance, he took part in the jam session at the Theaterkeller until four in the morning - it was Eric Harland's birthday (November 8). Quote
jazzbo Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Karin Krog & Steve Kuhn Trio “New York Moments” Enja/Muzak Japan lp facsimile cd. Driving today I listened to discs 1 and 2 of this release, which comprises of two concerts in London in March, 1981. Not my favorite year of the Dead by any means. Jerry was pretty twangy at the beginning and he really sang quite soulfully. Grateful Dead “Dave’s Picks Volume 56” Quote
jazzbo Posted August 28 Posted August 28 A dry morning, both Tobi and I are happy about that. Nice and cool. . . fall is on the horizon. Starting off with a great sounding Savoy on Savoy/Denon Japan cd. “Byrd’s Word” Donald Byrd - trumpet Frank Foster - tenor saxophone Hank Jones - piano Paul Chambers - bass Kenny Clarke - drums Quote
jazzbo Posted August 28 Posted August 28 Too long since Keith Jarrett graced my transport. Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Paul Motian “The Old Country” ECM Japan UHQCD More recordings from the “At the Deer’s Head Inn” performance. Quote
jazzbo Posted August 28 Posted August 28 (edited) The Berlin Concert here. Nothing new, this has been out many times by Sony/Columbia, but it sounds nice here. (Also this is the first time the entire concert including the excellent "Stella By Starlight" has appeared on vinyl on the vinyl versions of this release from The Lost Recordings). Miles Davis “Helsinki 1964/Berlin 1964” The Lost Recordings 2 UHQCD set, disc 2 Edited August 28 by jazzbo Quote

Peter Friedman Posted August 28 Posted August 28 I hadn't played this one in many many years. I have to admit that I now did not really care for it. With one exception, all the tunes are originals that I found quite uninteresting.Lee Morgan does what he can with the tunes. Furthermore, the rhythm section sounds very uneasy with these tunes. Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb do sound good on Mack The Knife, the one tune not an original. I suspect I was more positive about this album when I first heard it in the early 60's. Now these many decades later, my taste has clearly changed. Quote
