What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[mjazzg]

Inspired by Uli's post, I pulled the only Anthony Davis LP I have off the shelf and gave it a spin. Good stuff, a mix of free jazz, orchestrated music and modern classical composition. Pretty nice.

You've gotta get your hands on I've Known Rivers w/ James Newton & Abdul Wadud

I'll take note of that, thanks for the suggestion. I think that whole cohort of Anthony Davis, James Newton, Jay Hoggard, et al, may deserve more attention than they have received.

Newton's first, Flute Music, on his own Flute Music Productions label, is very nice.

Didn't know of that one. Looks interesting line-up and instrumentation. $50 means it'll have to be very interesting though

I'm not sure of the going rate for this LP (the Anthony Davis one-- or did you mean the Newton? Don't know about that one) , I think it's usually found cheaper. I picked up my own copy in Philly for $1.00 in a bargain bin, probably because the spine of the LP jacket was scuffed (vinyl quite fine).

I meant the James Newton 'Flute Music' - too many posts quoted to avoid confusion, apologies. The Davis I have but paid more than $1 !

James Newton/David Murray - Solomon's sons [Circle]

[Leeway]

With all the talk of Shepp on the Board recently, his ears must be burning (as they say). Although I have a lot of Marion Brown's records, he still is something of a spectral figure to me (on a personal level).

Reuben Wilson - On Broadway (BN)

Khan Jamal "INFINITY" on Jam'Brio Records, with Byard Lancaster and Sunny Murray and Philadelphia musicians.

Shepp wrote three good tunes for that album. I'm not sure if he ever recorded them himself. I don't believe so.

I think you are right on that. Maybe they were a gift to Marion?

Spinning some more Marion Brown:

I've thought that might have been the case. If so, nice gift.

Reuben Wilson - On Broadway (BN)

Damn - every time I see that one I get peeved. Passed up a nice copy in reasonably-priced copy in Mole Jazz years ago and regretted it ever since.

[tomatamot]

My today`s arrival.

[Kevin Bresnahan]

Now playing:

Hank Mobley - A Slice of the Top (BN "rainbow"). What a wonderful album.

I traded in my rainbow LP when I got my hands on a copy of the Connoisseur LP. It sounds better. That weird phasing on the cymbals is not as bad and the stereo separation is better.

Found mine on a stall at the Brecon Jazz Festival years ago. Paid top price I think but it's a mint copy and I've not seen another.
