I found this article on them. A Strange Place For Jazz Posted by Ross on August 29, 2002 09:09 PM (See all posts by Ross) Filed under: Music: Jazz E.S.T. Strange Place for Snow (2002) Somewhere Else Before (2001) Sweden may not be the first place that comes to mind when thinking about the future of Jazz, but out of the land of caribou and cloudberries comes the Esbjorn Svensson Trio (known more commonly as E.S.T.), a (mostly) acoustic piano trio that is helping to define, as the New York Times wrote, "Not what jazz was but a vision of what it can be." What it can be is beautiful music with a base in the styles of Bill Evans and Thelonious Monk, but seasoned with the open sounds of Scandinavian folk music, and fused with modern rock and the occasional shot of electronica. E.S.T., comprised of pianist Svensson, bassist Dan Berglund and drummer Magnus Ostrom, have released two albums in the United States: their latest, A Strange Place for Snow, and 2001's Somewhere Else Before, a compilation of highlights from two earlier European releases. Throughout both albums, Svensson expertly leads the group through seamless changes in tone and tempo from bluesy modality ("The Message" on Strange), to funky ("Dodge the Dodo" on Somewhere Else), to evocative ethereality ("Serenade for the Renegade" and "Carcrash" on Strange, the title track on Somewhere Else), to hyperactivity (Strange's "When God Created the Coffeebreak") and even a little techno (Somewhere Else's "The Wraith"). Groups like E.S.T. help stretch Jazz beyond the stuffy traditionalism that is choking off the American Jazz scene. When I saw them perform in Munich earlier this year, they enveloped themselves in a smoke machine's dry ice fog (a first for me at an acoustic jazz concert). But they have enough ties to the past to make for a comfortable transition for those who want to give their copies of Blue Train and Waltz for Debbie a rest, and enough innovation and energy to help move Jazz into the 21st century.

I was listening to an internet jazz raido station this morning and heard this group for the first time. Has anyone else heard of them before? They were groovin' real nice.

That would cost too much.

Everytime I spin a disc or LP, my wife always comes into the room and nearly shuts the volume. Her love of jazz doesn't go beyond Chuck Mangione's "Feels so Good." So when I put the headphones on, I get, "you are Ignoring me." Do any of you on this board have similar stories with their spouses or other half?

Do you think with Norah Jones success blue note will try to sign more artists like her and less jazz artists? At least, I hope all the money she is making for BN means more RVG's and Conn's in those series. Why sign artists like Van Morrison and Al Green unless you want to go in other directions. I know BN in the business of making money.

Thanks, I notcies the thread after I posted mine.

I just found this one. http://www.sharingthegroove.org/msgboard/s...&threadid=42226

Does anyone know about their teaming? Did anything every gwt recorded and released?

Great. Are these stations live or taped and in a loop?

It's so many years now since Vinyl ruled the music world, and most of my old albums I've upgraded to CD's. But, the ones that have not made there way to CD's, what should be used to clean them? I remember having a kind of lint brush that I would use, but long gone. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Does anyone know how many sessions(CD's) are in this series? I have 13 CD's from this series. How many more are there? Thanks in advance I have these: Rusty Bryant Sonny Stitt Houston Person Don Patterson Vol 1 Don Patterson Vol 2 Jack McDuff Vol 1 Jack McDuff Vol 2 Richard Holems Sonny Phillips Gene Ammons Shirley Scott Red Holloway Charles Kynard

What I ment by better, is more complex arragments. Better was too vauge of a word to use.

True, I forgot to put him on the list.

My vote is going to Duke Pearson. I really like the arrangement he did on Mitchell's "Boss Horn".

Thanks for bringing that up, Rooster. The October 28, 1967 concert from Antwerp, Belgium is simply the best Miles live recording I have ever heard (I've heard almost all, including many bootlegs). As it is a radio broadcast, the sound is very good. I have this bootleg too, and it is great. I also have another which is just a few days later, 11/6/67, which is just as good. Then I also have others from around the same time, which the sound is just horrible. Has anyone heard the 11/6/67 date?

Some Cd's are pressed from LP's or non masters. I believe some of the Blue Note CD releases from Japan were pressed from Vinyl. I believe Duke Pearson's the Sweet Honey Bee was done this was beause the master tapes were lost of damaged.

Maybe they'll copy protect this board like they do with eroupean RVG releases.

Dude, I don't think so. GOIN' WEST had come and gone by then. As far as I know, it's only had the one cover, unless there was an Applause thing I missed. But that would have been early-80s. I could be wrong, though. you're wrong (I think) I distinctly remember seeing a very ugly "mood"-photo with a guitar on a bluish background. Yes, that's the one. Need to find a photo of this.

The goin' west cover was around the time this Silver records was reissued.

No, this isn't the cover I am talking about. This was the original cover from the 1969 release. Later they had a picture of a real guitar on it. It was done in a country western style. Real cheesy. I going to spend the rest of today searching the web for a picture of it. It's going to be a real productive day at work today.

I remember someone selling Grant Green's "Goin' West" on eBay. It had such a horrible cover of an acoustic guitar. Man, this is a real good reason why Blue Note went under. The quality went way down. I wish I could find that picture to post. The eBay auctions was more then 2 years ago, so no way to find it there.

I've been playing Johnny Hodges and Wild Bill Davis' "Wings and Things". One day this has to make it to CD.
