So Chubby Jackson it was - great track, that one! And I finally ought to listen to that one Steve Lehman disc I bought nearly a year ago... The Giuffre is embarassing... got that disc, of course. Lovely, lovely stuff! Thanks a lot for this fine BFT of yours, hope mine will be an adequate follow-up... discussion will be opened tomorrow!

Look for some of his own sessions! There's the OJCCD pairing a date of his featuring Mulligan with the Fantasy Mulligan quartet tracks, for instance. Also lately some yurpeen boots... on topic: wrapping up my Hill 63-66 listen with two gos through the session for "Compulsion" and two (or three - I'm in the middle of the first now) to the not-so-great session with Sam Rivers.

sending pm on: Teo Macero – with the Prestige Jazz Quartet Duane Tatro – Jazz For Moderns Lem Winchester – Lem’s Beat

> here < some fine stuff mentioned there!

I have that Heiner Stadler disc - a fine one indeed! The biggest surprise to me is #8 - Al Sears?!? Wow!

Had no idea he's ill. Just played "Dialogue" three times on Sunday - and it really opened up my ears! I don't think I really "got" that one before, but really discovered it's beauty yesterday!

so? I still don't get this "user review" culture... but I guess that's what lots of folks tend to fall for, these days... but it seems to fit Germany's Next Top (ha!) Model or these silly jungle shows much better than a high quality operation like Hat! Anyway, the Braxton looks mighty interesting!

Been playing Hill all day - sessions D-H, all but the final two multiple times, and in between three runs through "Dialogue"

That's strange, when I click on the link in my post above, I get the page with the samples; the "alle anhören" button is right in the centre of the page. May depend from which country you open it... I'm not able to buy MP3s from there, also. Not that I wanted to, but...

I get no such button and no samples whatsoever on amazon.de... but I don't mind, my set should soon be on it's way. However, my order from last Wednesday has not yet been confirmed other than by the automated e-mail so far. Guess that all has to do with the cut-downs at Mosaic.

Playing discs 3 and 4 (Point of Departure) (and more) of the Andrew Hill Mosaic today :tup

Yes, they are... but while the Album Classics disc come in basic cardboard sleeves, the "For All Time" set has a sturdy box housing the five respective CDs in Sony/Legacy editions with their typically fine booklets/notes and all (not sure all of them have been made available separately, but "Time Out" and "Time Further Out" have and they're identical to the versions in the box).

That's a weird ranking... only know the Farlow yet, but his flow and swing are unmatched among other guitarists, in my humble opinion. What I heard of Pass' from that period (for instance in the Gerald Wilson Mosaic) has sounded great and I'm looking forward a lot to eventually getting that box, too... Anyway, I guess to me it's all apples and oranges, in the end.

It says 1961... and an excerpt on youtube says it's a commercial that wanted to animate people to place commercials in jazz films? Huh?

That's great, Jim! Anyone knows where this comes from?

Very sorry to hear that, Paul!

Love Roy Eldridge! The Mosaic was a revelation in many respects! Also the Paris 1950 recordings are pretty good... and some later Pablo stuff, too! And the trumpet/drum duos done for Granz are a fine proof (if any is needed!) of how adventuresome a musician Roy was!

actually it's sad, but still...

That's the one of which two tracks were added to the Blue Note CD reissue of "Booker Little - 4 and Max Roach", the United Artists album... too bad they never released the whole thing "domestically"!

Early 70s, actually. Their first after returning from Apple, iirc? Yessir - and it's the funkiest album they ever did. John Lewis' comping on the first two tracks would have served the James Brown horn section perfectly. Thou sayeth thus that "Plastic Dream" is worth hearing? Just passed it by in a local sale this week... will return Saturday to check if it's still around! Expect to hear a harpsichord on two tracks, and make sure your equipment can deal with a crotale or finger cymbals as a ride cymbal substitute - great speaker test. If they sound cluttered ....... Besides Space, it's the wierdest MJQ album, I never heard anybody hear drum grooves like those Connie Kay plays on the opening track. Masterful. And funny, if you can understand John Lewis' musical humor ... Ok, that sounds interesting! "Space", too! I was once too stupid to pick up that one at a used store, many years ago... I can deal with a harpsichord - I found the recent hate-thread rather weird...
