Junior Mance – Junior’s blues Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis & Johnny Griffin – Tough tenors – completes my Griff/Jaws early recordings collection. Buck Clayton & Buddy Tate – Buck and Buddy blow the blues Red Garland – Bright and breezy Coleman Hawkins – The Hawk relaxes This turned out to be the RVG. Very nice. MG Quote

Daniel A Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 I finally found this one at a good price: "4 in Perspective" with Kenny Wheeler, Fred Hersch, Norma Winstone and Paul Clarvis; a 1999 concert released on Clarvis' Villiage Life label. This is simply a wonderful album! Hersch and Wheeler is such a good match. I suspect this is the kind of CD that will be very difficult to find within a few years. As noted in another thread Wheeler (or Hersch) fans are advised to check out this one. Quote
mikelz777 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 In one of my daughter's junior high fund raising efforts, I volunteer to be a food taster for market studies. The school gets $9.00 for the test and I was paid $26.00 for about an hour of my time today tasting 4 different bowls of frosted shredded wheat type cereal and answering a bunch of questions about it. What better way to dispense of such quick and easy money than picking up some new jazz? Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 The Art of Ivry Gitlis (Vox) IMHO the best Bartok and the rest are dandy. I love this set. He was one crazy mf. Quote
paul secor Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 The Art of Ivry Gitlis (Vox) IMHO the best Bartok and the rest are dandy. I love this set. He was one crazy mf. I listened to the Bartok Solo Violin Sonata this afternoon. To my (admitedly uneducated) ears, he could really wail. I kept it in mind and ordered it because of an old post of yours about the Sibelius Violin Concerto. Glad I remembered. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted October 19, 2007 Report Posted October 19, 2007 BILL HARRIS A great recollection to an almost forgotten trombone player. Complete Fifties Sessions Keep swinging Durium Never heard of this cat, but now I'm interested in hearing him. That's the beauty of this thread: a constant calling to listen to new people/groups. JSangry has certianly mentioned a ton of music that I've never heard of before. I'll bet it's great. I don't know much of his playing, but I've heard a few tunes arranged by others and like them very much. Namely Rudd's version of "Everywhere," which slays... Quote

T.D. Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 Jan Lundgren Trio, Cooking at the Jazz Bakery. This is somewhat of a gamble, as I've never heard anything by Lundgren, but I recently read some good writeups on Doug Ramsay's blog and elsewhere. So what do you think abou it? Now, I haven't heard the Bakery album, but I know that Lundgren can play, if given the right setting. It seems that he is rather conventional when he's calling the shots himself, but can be forced into a more adventurous mode if the setting asks for it. Well, it's pretty good, but perhaps I would have been better off going for a more adventurous setting. Lundgren can certainly play, but his approach on this album seems a little conventional and polite. Granted, it must be tough to record an album full of such well-known bop standards. So, I'm a little disappointed, but the set isn't going onto the sell pile. Quote
