    Yup he is great, especially the Sunrise Orchestra stuff (although I must say I do not like most of the vocals on those albums). His work on Andrew Cyrille's My Friend Louis is also awesome. A trumpeter with Donald Ayler's power and Toliver's technique and speed. Powerful trumpeter!

    Anyone checked his FB page recently? Mr Murray is offering saxophone lessons in the NYC region.!.!

    Going to see him in the Amsterdam Bimhuis with Ingebrigt Haker Flaten and Paal Nilssen Love. Sounds like a dream group to me. I prefer Murray over Mats Gustafson anyway.

     

  10. What is this?

    They are pretty awful. I used to own the ‘Swing Time’ and Bebop Years boxes. 100 cd’s filled with great music, very bad sound quality, a little sessoipnagraphy (partly wrong and incomplete). It’s public domain stuff. Gave mine away. Typical Membran shit product

  19. Charles Tolliver All-Stars vinyl and CD reissue

    in Re-issues

    Posted

    Ordered this one immediately at our local record store. ‘Pure Pleasure Records’ is exactly that what their name states: a pure pleasure. Using the original master tapes for remastering, these sound absolutely stunning. As a matter of fact: I am replacing some of my German Bellaphon cd’s with these vinyl reissues as I really don’t like the sound of them ( Harpers Capra Black sounds dreadful). This label is making some rare Strata East records available again including their original artwork (front and back). A big plus for me is that they pay dues to the original owners of the material. 

    Only thing that is wondering me is why they reissue this Tolliver session under Strata East. The original was issued on Polydor or Black Lion wasn’t it? 

    I am still hoping that after Strata East, they are going to start with the India Navigition catalogue. 

    Oh and Barbara Donald 👍 she caught my attention from the very first note on Simmons’s ESP stuff. A very good trumpeter with a great sense of timing, space and melody. A miracle she is so obscure.

  22. Happy Birthday, Roy Haynes!!!

    A very happy birthday To you mr Haynes. You are a true legend of all time! Now what should  I play in your honor:

    - Lester Young’s Aladdin records?

    - Sonny Rollins Sound of Sonny?

    - Some Getz’ Roost Records?

    - Shepp’s Way Ahead?

    - Pharoah Sanders’ Thembi

    - Or perhaps Some Petrucciani?

    - Some We Three with Phineas

    - Some Bud Powell, Monk, Bird, Coltrane or perhaps Clifford Jordan’s in the World?

    My god, with who didn’t he play? Oh and by the way: his drumming skills on ‘After The Crescent’ of Coltrane’s Dear Old Stockholm.... so ridiculously good! And you must be damn good to fill in for Elvin Jones.
