Wally Shoup/Gust Burns/Reuben Radding/Greg Campbell - The Levitation Shuffle

shoupBurnsLevitation.jpg

I went to hear Wally Shoup, Gust Burns and Bob Rees tonight at Gallery 1412 in Seattle and bought this at the show. It's a highly recommended CD that has been getting lots of airplay on KBCS. And the performance was superb: enough energy to light up the whole city :excited:.

Went shopping in Seattle today:

Gram Parsons: The Complete Reprise Sessions.

Pure Prairie League: Pure Prairie League / Bustin' Out.

The Flying Burrito Bros: Anthology 1969 - 1972.

The International Submarine Band: Safe At Home.

Poco: Pickin' Up The Pieces.

Jackson Browne:

--- Jackson Browne (AKA: Saturate Before Using).

--- For Everyman

--- Late For The Sky

I know, I know, forgive me; I'm falling for the whole 1968 - 1977 Country-Rock, Singer/Songwriter Era stuff right now. :rolleyes:

The first 2 of my latest tranche of OJCs turned up this morning

This is fuckin' fantastic! Nat, whose stuff I listen to more than Cannon's, is spitting fire on this! And Johnny Griffin is rolling me over! And the 3 Sounds are great!

Another terrific one! Oliver Nelson and Joe Newman really make this into an extraordinary album! Perhaps not as in your face as the Adderley, but still a blinder!

I could have been listening to these for forty years!!!!

AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!

Got my Sterns sale albums today

sylaf96070.jpg

One of my favourites, upgraded from K7. Nice to see there are two bonus tracks on the CD version.

Not heard this yet, but it does look like it's a jazz album.

And also one I ordered a little while ago from Amazon UK, which, though it's Spanish, had to come from the US?

Strange that the bonus tracks are the trio cuts from Sonny's album "Deuces wild". another I'm glad to upgrade, though my King pressing is very good.

Nothing today - but last Saturday I got together with a good friend at Sally's Place in Westport, Ct. and picked up Von Freeman's The Improvisor and Paul Desmond's Quintet/Quartet. Unfortunately, my wife took them to set aside and give to me on my birthday - she says she never knows what to get for me. So I'll have to wait a couple of months to hear them. Gives me something to look forward to, and it'll be nice to get some music on my birthday.

For anyone passing through S.E. Ct., Sally's place is a great place to check out. And Sally White is a great person to talk with.

Beautiful record. Great Sound. The record got a RCM clean and it has still some surface hiss.

Some day I will find a NM copy.

Picked up Joe Henderson's Power to the People from the Keepnews collection used for $8

They also had The Modern Jazz Quartet plays the music from the movie 'Odds Against Tomorrow' in the $2.50 bin so I took a chance and picked it up. I'm not really a big fan of MJQ but for that price, what the hell.

Stumbled across a a CD on my "very wanted" list at a used place in Boston today (on my way to the 30th Annual John Coltrane memorial Concert, a great Boston-area institution).

So today I bought The Ted Brown Sextet's Free Wheeling, featuring Warne Marsh and Art Pepper.

Listening right now, and as a Tristano aficionado from way back (1978/9 or so), all I can say is that this record is a little piece of heaven...

Jensen, Per Oliver Jorgens, Andrea Centazzo.

Now that's a good day!
