sidewinder Posted July 15, 2013 Report Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) Humphrey Lyttelton - Jazz at the Royal Festival Hall (UK Parlophone 10"). I no longer remember where I got this record, but I'm glad I found it. This 'Merican has a soft spot for the better European trad bands. They add their own flavor to the basic New Orleans style, and often have a more varied and interesting repertoire than American "dixieland" bands. Played that one thin when I was 17. One of my first records - 10" LP. Saw Humph in concert a couple of years before he passed on (the previous time I saw him was around 1976 when he had Bruce Turner, Kathy Stobart and Mike Pyne in the band). Had a nice chat with him at the interval about his radio show and the merits of Horace Silver (!) and he kindly signed one of his books for me. I was even able to put in a personal request to have some Horace played on his BBC radio show. A very nice person and hugely influential over the years on my jazz listening.. On the same theme, I'll dig this 10" on Parlophone out (Vic Lewis's old audition copy) Edited July 15, 2013 by sidewinder Quote

clifford_thornton Posted July 16, 2013 Report Posted July 16, 2013 Full Moon Ensemble - Crowded with Loneliness - (CBS-Soulfly FR, reissue) Interesting record, heavy vinyl and cover, yet sounds like it was made from crappy MP3s (ultra-compressed). I remember hearing a tape someone made for me years ago and it sounded much fuller and more present... that said, I can't imagine dropping the bills for an original. Guess some things are just better left to the ears of hardcore collectors. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted July 16, 2013 Report Posted July 16, 2013 Hah, yeah, she's an acquired taste. I think the LP pales next to offerings from Perception, Cohelmec, Machi-Oul and the like. Quote

It doesn't come up that often and I saw it on eBay a few months ago but didn't pull the trigger for some lame reason. Quote
