Unable to express the ideas floating in his head and painfully squealing because he was aware of what he wanted to express but couldn't ... Or so they thought ... 14 hours ago, John Tapscott said: Just out of curiosity .... Was there more than one Milcho Leviev or a succession/family of musicians by the same name? Unless my memory is failing me really, really badly, I do seem to remember that name from some Down Beats from the 50s (and/or Schwann-like record release listings), but in an orchestral MOR pop/light classics context. Could this possibly be the same one? Quote

Sadly, didn’t catch him play the Ronnies gig that Summer but did catch him at Capital Jazz Fest which was I think, July 1980. Relocated right after the Ally Pally burnt down ! I have the feeling that Pepper played the Charlie Parker 25th Anniversary tribute I saw right after the Ronnies season. He brought the house down with his solo feature. Must get that ‘Complete Mole’ set (vinyl would be nice). Edited February 2, 2019 by sidewinder Quote
JSngry Posted February 2, 2019 Author Report Posted February 2, 2019 I gotta think that Metropole gig is fun. Quote
Tom 1960 Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) I've been on the fence on the latest Dolphy release so holding off on that for now. Instead picked up these 2 Resonance releases. Never minded the funkier side of Grant Green. 1 hour ago, Peter Friedman said: Your impressions, Peter? Edited February 2, 2019 by Tom 1960 Quote

Tom, I am a big fan of Duke Jordan and like most of his albums, especially those on Steeplechase. Though I prefer Jordan with a bass and drums, this solo session is very good. I also have and enjoy his other solo CDs on Steeplechase too. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 3 LPs on this very good 2 CD set. It was especially nice to hear some delightful solos by Yusef Lateef on the first session. Quote
