  1. Lou Donaldson Corner

    in Artists

    Posted

    But when you're really ready for some heavy Lou, find "The Scorpion: Live at the Cadillac Club."  Lou live in 1970 in Newark.  To me, this is THE live organ group recording.

    Man, I gotta go with Lonnie Smith Live at Club Mozambique. That thing is just flat-out stupid. Not a stinker on there. Than again, this is coming from someone who doesn't play organ and a number of people here do. So.....

    On another note, don't forget Lou on Jimmy Smith Cool Blues. That's some of my favorite Donaldson on record.

    ...Well, you got me there. "Live At Club Mozambique" is THE live organ album!!!! I don't care if I contradict myself! Oh, and did I meniton "Move Your Hand." ;):D

    HELLYEAH!

    While I'm not the biggest fan of this kinda stuff (would be difficult beating some of our worthy constituents...), these two CDs always did it for me! Check out that Muhammad solo on Scorpion! And a nice'n'easy version of Seven Steps on Mozambique... (and after all that, throw in some Ayler to relax :g )

    Thanks for your wake-up call, Brandon, it's still quite early (and snowy) here.

    ubu

    Is this what you see from your window, ubu? :lol:

    Oh Hell! Get *************!

    That image at least has some sort of beauty... (although I have not yet figured out the use of snow at all), but here it's sort of drizzling wet ugly grey dark shitty weather... some Watusa would sure help me to travel our swiss spaceways (hell, why go to the moon...)

  5. Best CDs 2003

    in Miscellaneous Music

    Posted · Edited by king ubu

    I guess the Randy Weston Select would belong on that list, too! (I don't have it yet)

    Then the recent Jimmy Lyons box (eagerly awaiting delivery...)

    The Holland is a good one, but I don't think it would made it on my best list.

  6. Jazz Autographs

    in Miscellaneous Music

    Posted

    I actually have ... Wynton's autograph. (Hey, it was 1984.) After his name, he wrote one word: Practice!

    I remember he wore funny looking socks, and because I played the saxophone, he said to me, "Man — Trane." Then Robert Hurst said: "Trane."

    Another John Gilmore fan here - he tears it up on Pete LaRoca Sims' Women at a Turkish Bath album. I like that date for the whole ensemble. [Certainly not for the fidelity.] Chick Corea is on it as well. They play in ways not usually found on records of the same era, with these wonderful ostinatos and free-ish passages.

    laroca_pete_turkishwo_101b.jpg

    HELLYEAH!

    That was one of my first 32jazz discs, and still among my favorites!

    Out Front is a great record, too - as might be almost any record where Julian Priester shows up. How about the Hancock Mwandishi band?

    Charles Davis' also great on Hank Mobley & Cedar Walton's Breakthrough.

  15. The Verve Mini-LP CDs

    in Re-issues

    Posted

    As I've taken the pains, see the complete (chronological) listing of the LPRs here.

    I like the series quite well, as I don't have any of the music on these discs.

    Recommendations for the first four batches would be the sublime Desmond/Brubeck disc, Ella's Whisper Not, the nice Getz, Gillespie, Basie discs, the Mulligan if you don't go for the Mosaic, the Bobo and Tormé if you like that kind of stuff, also the Gilberto if you're into bossa. The McRae is my favorite vocal album of these, but the Vaughan comes close. And then the Woody Herman is a real winner (begging for a Mosaic of his Phillips stuff!!). Re: Montgomery (I've got it), I'd rather pick up the 2CD comp. of his Verve Jazz Sides (called Impressions, if I remember right). It contains the same music (and more, in fact, the complete sessions with the Wyn Kelly trio), without any string overdubs (they're not too bad, but I rather take the music as it was recorded...)

    in New Releases

    Posted

    Thanks for the news, brownie! Got to look for this. Yesterday they did not have it here, but they're usually half a year in retard concerning new releases anyway... (though they did have the f**king copy-protected Larry Young Conn... but not the Hill, which I might have otherwise bought right away.)

  17. Gene Quill

    in Artists

    Posted

    Among the very few things by Quill I own, there is a very good session he co-led with Dick Sherman recorded for Dawn. I don't know the date, but it might be 1956.

    Line up is Quill as, Sherman t, Dick Katz p, Teddy Kotick b, Art Taylor d.

    This date (5 tunes, around 20 minutes) was released as the A side of "Jazzville '56". It's currently available from freshsoundrecords.com on a 2CD sampler featuring most of the four Jazzville albums (what's not on this one is some Quinichette stuff included on Quinichette's own Dawn/Blue Moon/Freshsound CD).

  19. Logical RVG Candidates for Early 1950's

    in Re-issues

    Posted

    I'd like to see Art Hodes material RVG'd. Very much!

    We won't see the Legge or the Dizzy; they were leased material that EMI won't be leasing now.

    Hellyeah! As I missed many earlier Mosaics (due to my youth and ignorance), I don't have any of the Blue Note hot jazz sets. Only have those CDs that came out for the 60th anniversary of Blue Note and the 4CD box.

    So naturally, I'd love to see nice reissues (but this might be a job rather for Mr. Addey than RVG?) of at least some of this music. Also some more of the swingtet kind of stuff would not make me mad at all...

    Then, how about a Complete Blue Note New Faces New Sounds Mosaic? I would sure buy it!

  24. Mulligan Concert Jazz Band at Olympia

    in Mosaic and other box sets...

    Posted

    The Zurich concert is highly recommended (and I did so here at least once - or maybe it was over on AAJ - in some Jeru-threads). It's a TCB release. TCB's a small and still young swiss label with quite a good catalogue. They should be distributed statesides, as far as I know. Also some of their productions are done in NYC (Buster Williams, Steve Nelson and Louis Hayes are among those recorded for TCB in the US).

    TCB Homepage

    One of the best features of TCB is their "Swiss Radio Days Jazz Series" (I have recommended these earlier, too): Swiss Radio Days Jazz Series

    They have 13 CDs out now, by Mulligan (CJB & Quartet), Blakey (the Morgan-Shorter Messengers, two separate volumes), Cannonball, Dexter/Ben Webster (each alone for two tracks, then two they did together), Louis Hayes/Woody Shaw, Jones-Lewis BB, Buck Clayton all stars, Quincy Jones, Don Redman Orchestra (1946, very cool disc!), Clark Terry-Chris Woods, and Coleman Hawkins.

    Here you find some more information about the Mulligan CJB release. The personnel is the same as on the Paris discs (which I do not have), and I like this concert very much, indeed!

    (Other favorites from the series are the Jones-Lewis, Redman, and Hayes/Shaw discs, by the way)

    These recordings are neither Granz nor bootleg things. They were produced by Swiss Radio (and thus probably -partly- broadcasted sometimes). TCB has acquired them from Swiss Radio, and this seems to be a perfectly legal deal.

  25. Universal France Reissues

    Ascenseur in its Jazz in Paris reincarnation seems to be quite rare, too. At least in my JiP catalogue this one is not listed (together with vol. 8, Chet Baker's wonderful "Broken Wing").

    There is a french release (with some ??-bit remastering sticker on it) widely available here. I only have the 80ies CD so far. Maybe it would be time to update. Though I would have to keep the booklet. Would be hard to live without the photos! (Is the one with Miles & Jeanne M. also in the booklet? That's my favorite)
