Cecil McBee Sextet - Music from the Source [Enja]

perfectly uplifting music for a lovely sunny spring day in London town.

Another purchase prompted by a post on this board - thanks Leeway

Happy to be of service, but I consider it simple recompense, if that, for all the cool LPs you've posted. ;)

Stan Tracey "perspectives" (Columbia, UK). Today's arrival from France...finally found this for a reasonable price but upon playing it almost all of track 1 had an audible crackle every revolution. I really hate vinyl some days...looks like I might have to try and return this one.

My copy of that one seems to be fine - nice album. However some of those UK Columbias can be a bit hit and miss, with that crackle issue. Fontanas too.

Donald Byrd, Blackjack (Blue Note Liberty), and

George Lewis and His New Orleans Stompers, volume 1 (Blue Note, Lexington)

Not both together I hope. :smirk:

DETTO FRA DI NOI: Live in PISA 1981 - PoTorch Records (2LP)

Alex von Schlippenbach, piano
Evan Parker, soprano & tenor saxophone
Paul Lovens, selected drums and cymbals, saw

'This album presents the complete recording of the performance given by the Schlippenbach Trio during the final concert of the 6 Rassegna Internazionale del Jazz on June 21st, 1981, in the Teatro Verdi of Pisa."

Cyclonic intensity relieved occasionally by steely meditative moments.

Whoa. That's got to be a beauty. Often been tempted to shell the $$$$ for it but not yet...one day.

That trio has to be right up there in the list of my most overwhelming live music experiences

Bah. How'd you swing that one?

in the Bim?

Thanks. I got it at a local dealer about a year ago, maybe a bit longer. I spotted it in a box of recent arrivals. Let's just say the price quoted was extremely favorable. (OTOH, I've bought stuff from the same dealer that was not so favorable :smirk: ). Mint sleeve and vinyl. The performance is outstanding. I wonder if it will make it onto CD someday.

Actually I was there, but I was too young to fully appreciate the concert. Pisa Jazz was a great festival back then, I have fond memories of Sun Ra and others.

Ingebrigt Haker Flaten Chicago Sextet - Live at Jazz Festival Saalfelden 2011

Did you get that at the concert? I just picked up my copy at the Baltimore show. How do you like it? It seemed from your comment in the Live Music thread that you might be getting more interested in free jazz/improv?

Yes I did. I bought it as it was the only LP they were selling. Not that I am against CDs, but since I had heard none of the music being sold, I figured I'd grab the LP.

It is fabulous. Having never heard of these guys before I had no idea what I was getting into. I love it. Really excellent.

That's pretty cool! I bought a copy of the double CD, "PISA 1980 IMPROVISORS SYMPOSIUM" from Evan Parker at a NYC concert. Still need to give it a spin. So clearly some great music played there.

I regret selling those Schlippenbach Lps on Po Torch...used to have them all. In leaner times I needed the money; kept most of his FMP albums though. I just finished "three nails left" inspired by this thread...have not played this in ages and it's a great album too.

Currently:

Richard Beirach "methuselah" (trio, japan)

And now:

Jan Garbarek "dansere" (ECM/trio, Japan). One of my favorite Garbarek albums with the brilliant Bobo Stenson and one of the best rhythm sections ever IMHO.

I definitely agree with you there. A matrvellous LP and that rhythm section

A pity that rhythm section never recorded on their own at subject time for ECM :( .......

LOST IN L.A. - Bobby Bradford and the Mo'Tet: Bradford (cornet), James Kousakis (as), Roberto Miguel Miranda (b), Marl Dresser (b), Sherman Ferguson (d).

Does anyone know anything about James Kousakis? This appears to be the only record he appears on; rather unusual for someone playing with this type of ensemble.

He seems to have Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/people/James-Kousakis/100002298000454

For me, his playing is the weakest part of that record.

I think that might be the son. Looks a little too young based on the photo on the back of the jacket, and the 1981 recording date. But I agree with your assessment. That was why I was kind of wondering who or how someone with so little--actually none-- recording experience could be selected to play with veteran musicians. I might ask Bobby Bradford when I see him this week.

I asked Bobby Bradford about it at the Baltimore concert. He told me that Kousakis was a student of his and played gigs in the Pasadena area. However he subsequently joined his father's hamburger restaurant, and then later opened his own restaurant. Bobby thought he still does gigs in the Pasadena area, usually backing up a female singer.

STAMPS - Steve Lacy . hatHut 2LP. Started listening to compare his version of "The Dumps" with those by The Lacy Pool and Ideal Bread, ended up listening to all 4 sides.

Yes, that was my first thought....I even had to double check who was the bassist on the set. Good album
