webbcity Posted April 30, 2020 Report Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Wow, some really interesting reveals here. I can't believe #5 is Rahsaan!! I really liked that, even moreso when I went back later to relisten. Also surprised at #6, I didn't really care for that one but do generally dig Hemphill. #7 had my interest too. I should really be a lot more familiar with the Either/Orchestra than I am. There was a lot of great stuff here... I am also adding the Muhal and the Ahmed Abdul-Malik to my want list. Track 8 -- haha! Thanks so much for your efforts putting this all together. A fun BFT! Edited April 30, 2020 by webbcity Quote

That Rahsaan album was so common in the mid-1970s, that I thought that everyone would know it. I guess my advanced age is showing. Either/ Orchestra has several really good albums, including some of their later ones. After I saw them live I started to buy as many of their albums as I could find. I have to admit that I was drawn to the Ed Palmero album by the cover and album title. Quote

That Rahsaan album was so common in the mid-1970s, that I thought that everyone would know it. Hell, I've owned it since then. And I STILL didn't get it here!!!! Gotta say, though, that at the time it seemed a little "anti-climactic" so, I've yet to revisit. Might do that again soon. Quote
felser Posted April 30, 2020 Report Posted April 30, 2020 I will need to find out more about Ed Palmero. Not familiar with him at all. I own six of the albums in the BFT (Muhal, Duke, Rahasaan, Either/Orchestra, Abdul-Malik, Mccoy) and didn't get any of them right. The Teo Macero cut was interesting, but don't expect to ever come by the CD/ Quote
JSngry Posted April 30, 2020 Report Posted April 30, 2020 Seriously, if Palermo wants his records to sound like that, why doesn't he just do a reverse Toshiko and relocate to LA? 7 minutes ago, felser said: The Teo Macero cut was interesting, but don't expect to ever come by the CD/ https://www.ebay.com/c/3517929 Quote

I have not heard those albums but have read about them. This album is supposedly his turn to his own compositions and jazz standards. Quote

Milestones Posted May 1, 2020 Report Posted May 1, 2020 I own Lester Bowie, Duke, Tyner, and Carla Bley. I got all of them, though in some cases it took some work to get specific. Love that Ed Palermo album cover. Quote
