Clunky Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Muhal Richard Abrams-------Young at heart/Wise in time---------(Delmark) UK pressing Slightly noisy pressing which is a pity as it does somewhat intrude into the very graceful performances. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 My US pressings also have had issues. Some things just sound better on CD. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Gil Evans-----British Orchestra-------(Mole Jazz) Fine recording !! The late Ed Dipple of Mole told me that one involved some very tough haggling over cash! I really like that one. Great guitar from Ray Russell on 'Little Wing'. And plenty of Surman throughout. Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2015 Report Posted March 26, 2015 Hal Russell/Mars Williams - Eftsoons (Nessa). Fascinating, sometimes very intense music on a practically noiseless LP. Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2015 Report Posted March 26, 2015 Bryan Wright - Bix Beiderbecke's Modern Piano Suite (Rivermont). I could put this in the 78 thread - Wright presents Beiderbecke's four-part suite on two microgroove stereo 78s. I suppose there's a novelty element to this issue, but it's musically and sonically excellent. Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 26, 2015 Report Posted March 26, 2015 Marian McPartland - Ambiance (Halcyon). McPartland's albums vary in quality. This is one of the very, very good ones. McPartland, the underrated Michael Moore on bass, and Jimmy Madison and Billy Hart alternating on drums play an interesting and exploratory set of music from 1970. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted March 26, 2015 Report Posted March 26, 2015 Sonny Greenwich "the old man and the child" (Sackville, Canada). Nice 1970 session...from a 2LP set featuring a similiar vintage Don Thompson group session on record #2 featuring Greenwich on guitar. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted March 26, 2015 Report Posted March 26, 2015 Forgot about the single record issue. Quote
paul secor Posted March 27, 2015 Report Posted March 27, 2015 Forgot about the single record issue. Did JCOA ever issue the other material from the 2LP set as a single LP? Never saw that - only the Cecil. Quote

Nice 1970 session...from a 2LP set featuring a similiar vintage Don Thompson group session on record #2 featuring Greenwich on guitar. I had this lined up in my 'for sale' pile. I played it again for one final time and loved it and wondered why I'd thought that way about it. Now not being sold. Quote

Me too Bob. Roundhouse Camden Town. Those were the days Ronnie Scott's in my case John. Certainly recall Danny Moore, Frank Strozier and Mario Riviera in the lineup. That gig of yours must have been part of the late lamented Camden Festival. Edited March 28, 2015 by sidewinder Quote

JSngry Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Bunky Green - Playin' for Keeps (Cadet mono) I'm trying to recall what kind of a mouthpiece came with that kind of a cover, not a Straython, no room for the sliding wedge...anyway, it looks like a gun, playing for keeps indeed, to what degree to you suspect the intentionality of that? Quote
Clunky Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 Elvin Jones/Richard Davis-------Heavy Sounds-------(Impulse) nothing revolutionary here, more backward looking than Elvin's BN output but still a very decent session. Slide Hampton & Václav ZahradnÃk Big Band ---------– B&S---------(Supraphon) Killer line up doesn't disappoint , recorded 1971 Quote
