papsrus Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 Getz I'm guessing this is one of his earlier releases ... Quote
Tom 1960 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Charles Tolliver Big Band - With Love Yourmusic.com said the availability of this album was limited. I figured it was now or never to get this at such a cheap price. Quote
ejp626 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Managed to pick up Rollin' with Leo (Parker) at Reckless Records. Looks like the previous owner listened/ripped it once and sold it, so it is essentially brand new. Plus I traded a few CDs in, so they actually owed me $0.30. (Trying very hard to balance my intake and outtake lately.) Made a quick pass through Dusty Groove but only picked up a used copy of Cannonball's Phenix and Louis Hayes/Yusef Lateef/Nat Adderley on VeeJay. (Looks like there are a couple of alternatives on the RVG of Let Me Tell You 'Bout It after all, so I guess I had better pick that up before the price jumps now that it is going OOP. It is a shame that his early work is so hard to come by or at least OOP now. Looks like another job for the European labels.) Quote

ejp626 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 I picked up a really unusual CD called Africa to Appalachia, which is banjo and cora, plus additional African musicians. It is pretty gimicky, and the first time through I wasn't that impressed, but I listened on headphones and it grabbed me considerably more the second time. Of course, I actually got it for my dad who is into banjo, but I wanted to test drive it. In addition, I got a used copy of Leo Wright's Soul Talk. It's probably been mentioned already, but this is a Water release from 2005. Quote

paul secor Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Interesting rhythm section - Don Preston, Richard Davis & Andrew Cyrille. I've had trying times with that one, mainly because of Preston. Not sure if's because of his playing or because of my own preconceptions - probably some of both. Quote

Hot Ptah Posted February 23, 2009 Report Posted February 23, 2009 Interesting rhythm section - Don Preston, Richard Davis & Andrew Cyrille. When was that recorded? How well does Don Preston fit in? I have a CD of a Don Preston acoustic piano trio date, which is not an unqualified triumph, to my ears. I wonder if this Bradford-Carter album is something like that. Quote

Don Preston is also on the John Carter recordings for Gramavision. I saw him a couple of years ago in a tiny studio club in New York called the Monkey--it probably didn't hold more than 20 people or so (and it wasn't full). A hard to find place. It was set up for 360 degree sound--Preston (on various electric keyboards) had a trio with a guitarist (Andre Cholmondeley), and Sheri (?) on electronic percussion). It was an interesting experience--electronic free improvision for the most part--the closest thing to a traditional song was a Captain Beefheart composition they played for an encore. I especially liked the guitarist, even though he hardly played any sounds that sounded like a guitar. Don Preston was approachable and said that his recordings with John Carter were among his favorites of his own recordings. Quote
