paul secor Posted October 14, 2013 Report Posted October 14, 2013 Basie Jam #3 (Pablo) I'm normally not a big fan of Granz's jam sessions, but this one fit perfectly into my life tonight (with the exception of an overwrought Joe Pass solo on the last tune). Even though this record was recorded in 1976, it has the feel of a session from 35-40 years earlier where the musicians were playing for their own enjoyment. Quote

Even though this record was recorded in 1976, it has the feel of a session from 35-40 years earlier where the musicians were playing for their own enjoyment. Hm, the presence of Joe Pass on an infinity of Pablo sessions was an instant 'ignore' message for me. It seems I've missed quite a bit of good music, that way (though Joe Pass is still a big turnoff - apart from his early recordings with McCann, Holmes, G Wilson & Bostic. MG Quote

MG Yeah - even if Granz or Basie didn't want to go with the obvious (Freddie Green), there are a number of guitarists who would have fit in better on this date than Mr. Pass. That said, his presence doesn't spoil the record for me. Quote

( in 99,99% this will be enough ) Happy hunt!!! p.s. I c`nt read or speak not one single word in Swedish. Discriminate?? You're serious? Try that on all those US ebay sellers who state "US sales only" and you'd be in REAL hot water. There's no obligation whatsoever to sell abroad. Even if it is only because the sellers just can't be bothered with finding out about shipping charges. I'd guess it would be a more appropriate idea to ask them VERY POLITELY if they'd consider shipping abroad if you pay the extra shipping cost. Most will be happy to oblige (has worked for me in each and every case on Tradera - but then again I write them in my own Swedish words, putting in a bit of an effort, faults'n all - and most of the time even on US eBay ).
