  1. Here's another with Drew I do like: http://www.tcb.ch/tcb.cgi?list=style|artis...RDON+BADEN+1972 Kenny Drew; piano; Bo Stief, bass; Ed Thigpen, drums. Dexter on two tunes, Ben on two, and both together on two more. ubu
  2. Hellyeah! And you forgot to remind me of actually voting... ubu
  3. Thanks, Mike. I got these couw-covers, seems it would be time to take them out once again and have a look at them. So it's the session with Hawk, Gryce, Copeland, yes? Hopefully I have not yet gotten rid of all my single Monk OJCs... ubu
  4. I think I'd go with Drew, too! I love those Montmartre dates, the one he's on on Blue Note (Dexter Calling), and also Daddy Plays the Horn. ubu
  5. Thanks for that link, Chaney! I did not know this at all, sure a site to check from time to time ubu
  6. I would think that we've got more than a little hope; it seems as though Reece's BNs are perfect for the Select concept-too few for a full scale box but too obscure for a regular box set or really many regular reissues. Why not drop them a couple of requests? It's been some time since I did (that was right after the concept of the Selects came public, I think) I guess without the Duke Jordan album, it would perfectly fit on three discs. With the Jordan added, it might be a 4CD select. ubu
  7. There's an online Getz discography which should help to find the Fantasy/OJC discs (on the jazzdisco.org site, which I cannot load right now). I've got the Roost (one of my favorite box sets!) and "Plays", so far. ubu

    Д.Д.: have you ever heard Steamboat Switzerland? One of the best GREEAZE trios here! Check them out if you have a possibility! ubu
  9. Yes, you're absolutely right! Turrentine & Reece were a great frontline! I love the Duke Jordan album! How nice it would be to have a neat little 3CD select with all of Dizzy Reece's BN dates, and as an added bonus that Jordan one... ubu
  10. Now what sort of reference point should this be "ho ho"? Pleeaze explain, dear gentleman! ubu
  11. By the way, some time ago I emailed Mosaic about a Reece Select and MC answered something like they think about doing it... not very specific, but there's still some hope! ubu
  12. Hey, send me a copy if you find one I have all the other Reece Blue Notes and love them very much! But Soundin' Off seems to be not exactly easy to find. I never heard it. Hope there will be a reissue some day... Good comments you make on Reece's sound and lines ubu

    NOW THERE COME THIS MUDDAFUCKN RUSSIAN AND KNOWS WERTHMÜLLER WOULD HAVE BEEN THE PERFECT DRUMMER TO FIT ON OUR FAVORITE HANK MOBLEY RECORDS... HOLY SHIT!! ubu START SCREAMIN' HELL YEAH! Welcome to the board! Great you made it over here, finally (well, you can't say I did not invite you earlier...) ubu
  14. I don't have these two, but Branford's The Dark Keys is also nice to listen to, from time to time. ubu
  15. How about a new original on the Organissimo Tribute CD "Turd-Uck-En Blues"? This is one of those discussions which makes me feel happy about being an old european... ubu
  16. And I think after a first listen that I do prefer Memento, too. Miller and Blade do seem to make a difference! Colley is one of the better young mainstream bass players. ubu
  17. Hey Mike, thanks for this recommendation, and congrats to your new Groove Merchant status! ubu
  18. Mike, I think I've read similar comments in a Tyner chapter in one of J.E. Behrendt's books ("Fenster aus Jazz", if memory serves me right). Thanks! ubu
  19. I did mention the Radio day series as often as I could, but alas nobody seems to be very interested (except, I have to admit, in the Mulligan CJB disc, discussed in some other, still recently active thread). I only know one track from that Richardson disc, but that one's so good I always wanted to pick up the album since then! (I didn't... but I will do so in the future) ubu
  20. I know! See Jim's great (as usual) account on the latest Mariano record here. ubu
  21. Yeah, Dan! Why not try! The owner of TCB, by the way, is an accomplished swiss mainstream drummer himself. Read more on the history of TCB: (taken from their site) By the way, they've got a real nice links site! Why not ask them to link organissimo forums? ubu
  22. By the way: nice that Mariano got two votes I love him, and love his work on Black Saint, yet I'd somehow never really consider him a Mingus sideman. ubu
  23. You know, I had a similar experience with Hadi's playing on that disc as you did describe so eloquently. I had the a real bad old remaster (from our good friends ZYX in germany), and never liked it, sounded so bad. Then I got the Avenue edition and it blew me away! Actually, Hadi's playing blew me away... On the earlier stuff with Mingus he's got his sound together (as on, say, "Blue Cee" from The Clown), but on this one he's really really good. ubu
  24. Jim, you have the bonus material on the Avenue/Rhino reissue of Symposium? ubu
  25. It's these two discs I picked up: and this is the artist site on http://www.palmetto-records.com/: http://www.palmetto-records.com/cgi-local/...ID=192711244624 ubu
