Digging further into Hampel's sound-world:

Thanks again to @mjazzg and @clifford_thornton for the recommendations.  :tup 

 

I also ordered this LP:

Along with Mike Westbrook, Graham Collier, and others, it seems like Mike Gibbs was part of a flowering of UK jazz composers in the late-60s and early-70s who focused on large ensembles.  I know and enjoy Gibbs' In the Public Interest, his collaboration with Gary Burton, but I'm wanting to explore a bit further. 

I wish Vocalion's CD reissue of Gibbs' two Deram LPs was still available.  The only US-based discogs seller who has it wants $48.  😲 . . .  That's too pricey for me.  Oh well.  At least both albums are available for streaming.

I remember when ‘Chrome Waterfall’ came out on vinyl, it was quite a popular release at the time. Gibbs had some crossover success - maybe getting music credits for ‘The Goodies’ comedy TV show helped !

Last time I saw him live he was conducting a youth orchestra as part of his 80th birthday celebrations, covering his own arrangements, must have been in 2017. Very enjoyable.

👍🏼 That's another good Hampel. How are you finding it?

And those Gibbs Dreams are special too

I had Amazon no-rush credits I used to download this, not realizing it contained the entire Swing's the Thing session, which I ordered in CD form earlier this week.  Oops.  Still, it has 22 additional songs, so I'll survive. :)

I bought the three-disc Duke Ellington Live and Rare box for under $7, which will complement the Centennial box.

As part of the current Qobuz sale I went on a HighNote splurge and bought:

Woody Shaw - Live, Volumes 1-4

Woody Shaw and Louis Hayes - The Tour, Volumes 1 & 2

Larry Willis - I Fall in Love Too Easily ( The Final Session at Rudy Van Gelder's)

Gene Ludwig-Pat Martino Trio - Young Guns

Lester Young - Pres in Europe

Charlie Ventura and Bill Harris - Live at the Three Deuces, Volumes 1 and 2

Hot Lips Page - After Hours in Harlem

For 12 CD-quality downloads, I paid $33.25.  I gave up on trying to choose between those Woody Shaw live albums and simply bought them all. :g

Excellent choice!! I’ve yet to hear a live  Woody Shaw disc that I’ve regretted getting — all, what?, 27(?) of them?, I’ve lost count.  Anyway, I’ve got like 85% of all the live Woody Shaw discs out there, and they’re almost all amazing.

Blackstone Legacy, nice catch there. I'm still looking for that.  This doesn't look like one of your Japanese deliveries.

It is ;) except the Bartz

There's normally at least ten in each shipment from what i've seen before, maybe the Woody accounts for the other seven 😀

Cannonball Adderley Quintet - Plus (Riverside) on the OJC CD. I still can't believe that I don't have this in my CD stacks somewhere. I'll probably find it a few days after I get in the one I just ordered. :)

Essential Cannonball :) Now you're at least sure you have a copy ;)
