jeffcrom Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Sonny Berman - Beautiful Jewish Music (Onyx). For those who don't know this one, it's a 1946 jam session by mostly Woody Herman band members in Jerry Newman's apartment - so of course it got recorded. Berman doesn't get any more solo space than anyone else, but he's the most interesting soloist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 The Nashville All-Stars - After the Riot at Newport (RCA Victor mono). Hank Garland, Chet Atkins, Boots Randolph, Floyd Cramer, a 17-year-old Gary Burton, and more. Garland is excellent, as is Burton, even at his age. Boots Randolph is not a bad jazz player; unfortunately, that can't be said of Cramer and Atkins. And a cool Jim Flora cover. This wasn't Gary Burton's recording debut, though. Ten points to anyone who knows what that was - and you won't find it in any jazz discographies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be too easy, so probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Absolutely nothing - looks like my LP12 turntable belt is worn (records are taking a minute or so to get to speed and then it is all over the place ) so it's off to the dealer this morning to put me out of my misery..

That would be too easy, so probably not. Maybe I should give all the contestants more time, but... The next time you hear Floyd Cramer's "Last Date," notice the tasteful vibraphone playing in the background. That would be young Mr. Burton. In a Cadence interview about ten years ago he said that was his first recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 whoa.... forgot about that one. Just now discovering Cage's early works. Have to admit, I'm more than a little stunned at the visceralness of them, how rhythmically driven they are. The "connections" I get to things from 20-30 years later (from Cecil - 88 tuned drums, indeed) to Max's melodic drum solos to Herbie's electronic music to Brian Wilson's drugged-out deadened piano & reverbs to the AACM's "space" pieces, and that's just for starters) are really startling to confront, to say nothing of the impact of the music strictly as its own self. Are there any more empathetic performances of this material that those of Kirtsein here? Hard for me to imagine that there are, but I don't know enough to imagine that with any true confidence.
