Is that discography inside really including ALL there is from TEE NAH!?) The Hubbard is a real good one. Then the stuff he made with Kenny Burrell, and also don't forget the Freddie Redd date and all the stuff he made with Jimmy Smith! ubu

For me it's Miles Smiles, with The Sorcerer, ESP and the Berlin concert close behind. Though I do not know any broadcasts of the second quintet - I would certainly love to hear some of it! The mood on the Berlin tracks is great if you ask me. Plugged Nickel is beyond category, for me. And I have to admit that I don't know the music on those 8 CDs very well. I could hardly tell the different sets... gotta listen again! ubu

I know there was no Miles-Moreau story, but I love those pictures nevertheless! You don't get photos taken from one of your favorite jazz musician with one of your favorite film star that often, do you? ubu

Very well said, SEK! I never had a problem getting access to Russell's music. It strikes me as some of the funniest, weirdest, grooviest stuff around! Hope you have fun with the Finnish/Swiss album, as well! I have that one, too. Somehow though I prefer Story - I think it's the more rock-like stuff on Finnish/Swiss which makes me like it a little less (I never could relate to rock that much - with exceptions of course; going to see Bob Dylan next week once again...) What strikes me most about Russell is that he does not care about "genres" of "styles", and yet his music still never get ecclectic. It's more like he collects all his influences, the re-shapes everything along his own premises, and the outgrowth of this is a highly individualistic, and completely "new" musical universe. And then he's quite a player, too! Gary, I'm glad you're enjoying it! Keep the comments coming! Matthew, John B? I have very little time to listen right now, but I hope to give some more personal comments on the weekend. ubu

I don't care about the sound that much, as none of this music was readily available before... Can anyone comment on the Brook Benton and Frank D'rone releases? Never heard of these two (men & albums)! ubu

That's what I was afraid of... I will look for them! Thanks! ubu

Starting with this one??? cool, sure B) Hell, what's Miles got to do with that?! Was he ... there?!? Holy cow! ubu

yes! I know an even better pic, but cannot find it online! YOU are the picture-wizard, EKE, you try to find some more! (Maybe we could stard a Miles-Jeanne-thread?) ubu

and dig once more? (all off topic, but such nice pics,... I'm sure no one gets mad about that!) ubu

dig?

Have fun with these! Some good ones, you have picked up! Don't forget to add the other Donald Byrd disc to your list. They both come from the same concert - and I love them! Walter Davis and Bobby Jaspar are great musicians, whose fame could be a little wider spread in my opinion. The Clarke, Criss and Thomas are favorites of mine. There's a second one by Thomas, and as a companion to the Criss, look at Saxophones at Saint-Germain des Pres. That one has tracks by Criss, Hubert Fol and Michel de Villers - the Fol tracks are sublime! ubu

Thanks for the Song X . Just added it to an open order on amazon Germany. Costs me 8.5 Euros, no shipping. Not bad! ubu

Is that one still around? It's been at least five years since I last saw it here! ubu

Rooster, I'm from Switzerland... HELL! Thanks everybody for your recommendations (keep'em coming!). I have seen "In All Languages" here, someplace, but for the usual price (being around 22-25$ for fully priced CDs). Nobody can speak in favor of "Body Meta"? And how about acoustic stuff? (yes, I know the duo with Kühn has been mentioned. I will pick up that one for sure) What do you think of the two discs with Geri Allen? thanks, ubu

I read Jonathan Safran Foer's "Everything is illuminated" on my vacation. It's been quite some time, believe me, that I have read a book which so thoroughly amused me, and at the same time, moved me. One of the best books I've read since quite some time! Anybody read it? Just bought Eugenides "Middlesex", but no time to read it right now. Others on my stack are: Franzen (Corrections), McEvan (Atonement), and of course much german stuff (Ingeborg Bachmann, Robert Musil). Other future reading shall include Paterson by W.C. Williams (anyone knows it?), some Blake, Elliott, Whitman etc. ubu

bon anniversaire, brownie! nice conversing with you here! ubu

I heard "Alone Together" on the radio recently - and while I was immediately sure it was Gene Harris on piano (although actually I don't know more of his than this 2CD set and two Three Sounds discs), but somehow I had very very long to find out the tenorist was Turrentine. My main problem was that I thought this was one of those Harris Concord albums (I know none of them), the style of music they dub "modern mainstream" here. However the interpretation of that nice standard struck me as beautifully crafted, open-minded swining music. I usually tend to under-estimate the whole album, though every time I spin it again (three or four times a year, maybe), it strucks me as a very fine one! ubu

I have seen that by now all of Ornette's Universal/Verve stuff is OOP. I don't have any of this, and would like to get some recommendations. Not only for the electric (prime time) stuff, but generally for the post Impulse, Columbia, post-classic or whatever you could dub that period of his work. The only one I do have is one of the two discs with Geri Allen. I have listened an hour ago to some of "Body Meta" - and somehow I find it difficult to get into that music. Recording quality (or generally the sound) bugs me quite a bit, too. However, I would like to explore some of this stuff before it vanishes at all... thanks, ubu

(all off-topic, sorry!) couw, Ms Hipp appears as a side-woman on the disc I mentioned. The following are the Koller tracks (taken from amazon.fr) - and I have to stress that I am going from memory and am not sure if she really is on any of all of them - gotta check as soon as possible, but have no access to my collection right now): 8. The Way You Look Tonight(Koller Hans) 9. You Go To My Head(Koller Hans) 10. Flamingo(Koller Hans) 11. Four Roses In A Iceblock(Koller Hans) 12. Unter Den Linden(Koller Hans) 13. All The Things You Are(Koller Hans) 14. What's New(Koller Hans) 15. Indian Summer(Koller Hans) Seems to be something else than what's on the disc you linked above. PM me, and I'll give you the rest of the details - but I won't have time till late on wednesday or thursday morning. ubu

This disc has some good (and presumably pretty rare) sessions. I have not yet delved deeper into the work of Gullin, but judging from the few tracks on this disc, he sure is an interesting player. (The Konitz and Koller tracks are fine, too, by the way. Jutta Hipp plays on one of the sessions, I think on the Koller one.) ubu

Jay Cameron is another one who deserves mention; Wilen presumably made his recording debut on a Cameron date (see the cover of a CD reissue containing that date in the Wilen thread), and Cameron later was part of Slide Hampton's tentet (this is documented on "Exodus", reissued recently in the excellent Jazz in Paris series). ubu

He does a nice tune on bari on "New York Romance" - I think it's the Duke Jordan tune "No Problem", but I'm not sure. He was certainly an able player on the big horn! ubu

Dave, thanks for the for "Mental Cruelty" - seems I've got to get it! ubu
