Brad Posted July 11, 2021 Report Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Bought the Gems of Jazz years ago from the Jazz Record Center in NY. Not sure I ever listened to it. Edited July 11, 2021 by Brad Quote

HutchFan Posted July 13, 2021 Report Posted July 13, 2021 Spinning this LP again tonight: OH yeah. Quote
HutchFan Posted July 13, 2021 Report Posted July 13, 2021 Now: This sounds better than I remember it being. ... Funny how that happens. The music doesn't change. We do. Quote

I need to relisten then too. I remember being underwhelmed at the time it was released. I had seen a storming gig of theirs at Ronnies so maybe the album suffered in comparison. Today's been a Yusef Lateef and Paul Horn day here Mono, 1966 Stereo 1964 not the 1957 issue sadly but 1985 Mono, 1978 compilation Mono, 1960 Beware the Jazz bagpipes... and currently maybe some Brotzmann next...

Rabshakeh Posted July 13, 2021 Report Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) Roscoe Mitchell - Old / Quartet (Nessa, 1975, rec. 1967) Edited July 13, 2021 by Rabshakeh Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 14, 2021 Report Posted July 14, 2021 Kenny Werner - Church On Mars (Newvelle). Kenny Werner on piano, Fender Rhodes, and Hammond B3 Organ, David Liebman on tenor and soprano saxophones and flute, James Genus on bass, Terri Lynn Carrington on drums, and Vivienne Aerts on vocals on "Embraceable You." A very well done record. Liebman's random squeals aren't my favorite solo device - they never have been - but the music shines through. It's a shame that it is so damn expensive though. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 14, 2021 Report Posted July 14, 2021 Next up - Frank Kimbrough... damn... the late Frank Kimbrough - Meantime (Newvelle). Frank Kimbrough on piano, Andrew Zimmerman on tenor saxophone, Riley Mulherkar on trumpet, Chris Van Voorst Van Beest on bass, and R.J. Miller on drums. I am liking this one a lot. The tenor player, Andy Zimmerman, is a new name for me. I've actually ordered Zimmerman's Newvelle LP as well, "Half Light", which has the stellar band of Zimmerman, Dave Douglas, Kevin Hays and Matt Penman on bass. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 14, 2021 Report Posted July 14, 2021 Teddy Edwards - It's About Time (with Les McCann Trio) (Pacific Jazz). I do like this one. I found it in a used bin and decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. It looks like a radio DJ copy. It has JB-303 written in big letters/numbers across the cover in magic marker and what looks like price stickers on each LP label. Who cares. The music is where it's at. Quote
HutchFan Posted July 14, 2021 Report Posted July 14, 2021 IMO, Pablo jam session LPs from this era sometimes feel rudderless and lacking in cohesion -- but not this one. Everything coalesces here. It stands out. I don't know why. The lineup? The repertoire? Serendipity? I dunno. It just sounds really good. Quote
sidewinder Posted July 14, 2021 Report Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Tempo, mono. Fine British hard bop session, one of the best things ever put out on Tempo. Issued in the US as ‘The Hooter’. Edited July 14, 2021 by sidewinder Quote

Gheorghe Posted July 16, 2021 Report Posted July 16, 2021 5 hours ago, HutchFan said: Now: Earlier: I haven´t seen Buddy Tate with his own group, but saw him with "Woody Herman´s All-Stars" in 1985. This was the only time I saw Woody Herman without his Herd. I think the lineup, besides Buddy Tate was Al Cohn from the older generation, and two youngsters Scott Hamilton and Varren Vaché . Veteran Joe Bunch was on piano, Jake Hanna on drums, and sorry to say that the scheduled George Duvivier on bass was not there. But a very very young bass player was very good. I don´t know who the kid was, but even Woody always looked with admiration to him, when he soloed. Woody himself played much and great clarinet and even sung a song.... Quote
