HutchFan Posted January 24, 2019 Report Posted January 24, 2019 John Coltrane - Meditations (Impulse) Last night I finished reading John Nisenson's Ascension: John Coltrane & His Quest. The book ends on a sour note with Nisenson expounding on all the reasons why jazz after Coltrane isn't worthwhile.  Those sorts of broad, generalized cultural proclamations were the least helpful aspect of the book. That gripe aside, most of the book focused on the specifics of Coltrane's music and thinking. I'd provisionally recommend the book to Coltrane-philes for that reason. A final THANK YOU! to felser for graciously sending me the book.   Quote
duaneiac Posted January 24, 2019 Report Posted January 24, 2019 Hendricks & Ross with Buddy Rich, 1969 The rest of the concert has some good performances by the band, but way too much "joking" and insulting of his own musicians by the a-hole drummer Quote

Rich and the Orchestra had great popularity in the UK around that time and croppec up on TV a fair bit. Quote

Marzz Posted January 24, 2019 Report Posted January 24, 2019 Don Rendell / Ian Carr Quintet (Decca, 2018 Download) Couldn't resist "upgrading" to the new remasters (something I rarely do anymore). Very nice! Quote
