JSngry Posted March 22, 2020 Report Posted March 22, 2020 I really like the performance of the Novák, with the taffy-pull internal tempos. Again, Supraphon continues to be a label to buy on sight, period. Quote

For a Fresh Sounds CD, they managed to dig up another track, "Bye Bye Blues", that must've been on some compilation over the years. Quote
kh1958 Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) My mono LP has eight tracks. Oddly, Howard Rumsey does not play on the record--notes say so he could man the control room. Edited March 23, 2020 by kh1958 Quote

JSngry Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 Good stuff, especially the Donald Erb piece, which on a Blindfold Test... Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 I know I used to have some of Erb's music on a CRI LP or two, not sure I still have them, but he was interesting for sure. Quote
JSngry Posted March 24, 2020 Report Posted March 24, 2020 Sometime more interesting than others, but capable of being very interesting often enough to keep me on the lookout for his stuff. Check this one out. Not THAT far removed from, say, George Lewis. Not "the same thing", but still...ideas are in everybody's air, too, not just viruses Quote

I’d buy a Riverside or a Pacific Jazz or a Vee Jay or a Prestige or an Impulse sight unseen. Columbia and other general labels might be underestimated unless they have some big names on the cover.
