Uneven, but some strong moments. Is Fritz Pauer on piano ? He was my favourite pianist and my real mentor, no Pauer, no Gheorghe.....😀 Erich Kleinschuster was ok, I heard him do some really slippery trombone on a rapid version of "Move". He was mostly a teacher to. But if I ever would have wanted to get formal teaching I would have preferred to be taught by Fritz Pauer. I saw him almost every day to hang out and talk about music, he let me sit in when I was 18....dig that ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) I am heavily biased as I saw this band live about five times. There are sound samples on the Sonorama label's Bancamp pages, they reissued this and the second Mombasa album. https://sonoramarecords.bandcamp.com/album/african-rhythms-blues Edited August 22, 2023 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 Nice selection. Had the Yusef and sold it; have the Free Improvisation and Khan; have heard the Bajas... I'd probably buy the Boulez if I saw a European pressing in a shop. Looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fehring was more a composer and became famous for other kinds of music than directly jazz I think. But it is true that he had founded the ORF Big Band in the early 70´s . But see, personalities like this were not let´s say "the cat´s you met around the corner in all them clubs, were you met the musicians every night". It´s possible that even Kleinschuster was not really such a cat you got easy in touch with, like let´s say Fritz Pauer. I saw Kleinschuster not so often in the clubs, but Pauer always was somewhere.

Pim Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Again the Pepper box. Music that probably everyone around here already owned and enjoyed for long time but I had a hard time enjoying Pepper for a long time. But I had a similar thing with Jackie McLean who I now regard as one of my favorite sax players. Anyway this excellent Japanese 3LP contain three of the Village Vanguard nights. Excellent compilation in excellent sound. Enjoying it very much. Another cool cat I enjoy very much. This would be a great selection for the Craft Contemporary series. Side A sometimes sounds Third Stream in my ears. Very interesting stuff with great playing by the whole band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
