jeffcrom Posted August 21, 2013 Report Posted August 21, 2013 Jimmy Smith - Live in Concert (Metro mono). The first issue of 1965 Paris concert that has been subsequently issued in more complete form on CD. I just found this, and snatched it up, since I didn't have many examples of Smith's trio with Billy Hart in the drum chair. I'm glad I did - I'm not sure there's anything else on record quite like the frightening clusters Smith plays in these versions of "The Sermon" and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf." Quote
jeffcrom Posted August 21, 2013 Report Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Get Yourself a College Girl soundtrack album (MGM mono). This choice was inspired by the album above - it includes two tracks by the same Jimmy Smith Trio, as well as two tracks by the Stan Getz Quartet with Gary Burton. The rest is 1964 rock and roll; mostly valuable as a reminder that The Animals were a pretty bad-ass band of British white boys; they make The Yardbirds sound like wimps. I have this movie on VHS tape; I need to transfer it to DVD; it's stupid and entertaining.. Edited August 21, 2013 by jeffcrom Quote
sidewinder Posted August 21, 2013 Report Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Eric Burdon knows his jazz and was a good friend of Ian Carr, of course ! Edited August 21, 2013 by sidewinder Quote

jeffcrom Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 Marian McPartland - Interplay (Halcyon). Wow - I had forgotten how good this one is. It's a duet with bassist Linc Milliman, who inspires McPartland to play at the top of her game. Globe Unity Orchestra - Improvisations (JAPO) Quote

Clunky Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 Dennis Wilson ---------Pacific Ocean Blue--------(CBS) UK . Finely crafted album with plenty of depth plus plenty to like. Quote
mjazzg Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 Max Roach - The Loadstar [Klimt]. not sure how official this reissue (not at all, I suspect) is but it's a very exciting listen nonetheless. My first real exposure to this quartet. I want to hear more Quote
jeffcrom Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) An excellent album, and not very well known. I think Robin Kenyatta's later work has scared a lot of people off from exploring this one. Edited August 23, 2013 by jeffcrom Quote
