Arthur Blythe Quartet Live From Studio Rivbea – July 6, 1976
Guy Berger replied to mjzee's topic in New Releases
I’m interested. I’ve picked up a bunch of NoBusiness’s archival reissues, glad they are putting them out -
RIP. Those 1966-67 Kinks recordings are special
-
Finally got around to another volume in this series, 6. (I’d already listened to volume 1.) This music is just great. Hard to believe that for all intents and purposes they were “just a local band” having a good night on stage.
-
Just discovered Shakill’s Warrior. Great stuff!
-
Dusk holds up really well, I’d say it’s my favorite post-1970 Hill that I’ve heard.

Miles Davis — May 26, 1958 session (pre-KOB, with the KOB line-up)
Guy Berger replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Discography
This is a fantastic session. -
Pedantic point - it’s one of the final *recordings* we have of Miles playing “So What” (there are 3 more after this one, stretching into early 1969), but I’m sure he played it a lot more often than that. The jazz club residencies, when he probably played it, are underrepresented relative to other venues in our recorded evidence.

The It’s decent. I greatly enjoy the recording.
-
Eh. I’ll be skipping this.

Mccoy Tyner and Joe Henderson live at Slugs Saloon (Blue Note)

It’s a good performance. A nice bridge between R&B and non-extreme avant garde jazz. -
Mccoy Tyner and Joe Henderson live at Slugs Saloon (Blue Note)
Guy Berger replied to ghost of miles's topic in New Releases
Yes. The American Quartet was playing there when Lee Morgan was shot. One of the 1965 Charles Lloyd recordings on Manhattan Stories (Resonance) is from Slugs. -
I take it from this thread that this guy is worth checking out? Where should I start?
-
This was a good forecast, unfortunately.
-
This is great music. Will pick it up.

If I had to pick a favorite “Lovano on BN” (of the ones I’ve ever heard), it’d be either the Vanguard quartet w/Harrell or 52nd Street Themes.
