sidewinder Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 'Sonny Stitt and The top Brass' (Atlantic blue/green) Richard Carpenter's imprint all over this one. Don Rendell "space walk" (EMI Columbia, UK). This copy is pristine...great 1972 session. We still need Dutton Vocalion to reissue that one on CD ! Quote
JohnS Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Max Roach plus 4 and More. Similar artwork but adds "& More" Emarcy Japan Quote
corto maltese Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Michelle Rosewoman - The Source [soul Note] This one hasn't survived the current trimming down of my collection. She's a fine player, but this set never really catches fire and things aren't helped by the thin, boxy recording and AkLaff's not very inspired drumming. I much prefer Bang's "Rainbow Gladiator". Just played it a second time. Keeper for me. My opinion sounds a bit harsher than it was meant to be. After all, I've had and enjoyed this for years. But I won't miss it when it's gone. That's a feeling I've got with quite a few Soul Note/Black Saint titles from the 1980s. Probably I simply haven't been discriminating enough in buying them. Last night's playlist: Art Ensemble of Chicago "People in sorrow" (Pathé-Marconi) (Gorgeous.) Cecil Taylor "Solo" (Trio Japan) (I've played this one LOUD.) Stan Getz Quartet "The Steamer" (HMV UK) (Lights and volume turned down.) Quote
corto maltese Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 ^ That looks like it would be good. It is. Quote
mjazzg Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Art Ensemble of Chicago - Message to Our Folks [bYG/Japan] Masterful followed by People in Sorrow [Nessa] more masterful Edited April 1, 2015 by mjazzg Quote

Leeway Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Another Leo LP. Glad to find it a bit more avant than I was expecting. Quote
mjazzg Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 I have that Ganelin Trio somewhere. I must dig it out keeping with Strata East here. Cecil McBee - Mutima in the recent Wire McBee interview it mentions that the first track is McBee bowing across two amplified basses and manipulating the feedback from the amps. It is indeed an astonishing performance Quote

optatio Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 ^ That looks like it would be good. It is. Chris Kelsey:"This is an incredible document and shouldn't be missed by any serious student of avant-garde piano." http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-ways-of-freedom-mw0000002398 Quote

soulpope Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 For whatever reason(s), I rarely come across Leo label LPs when I'm out there casually trolling for records. So particularly glad to find this one and Baltic Triangle, both mint, just recently. excellent recording..... Quote
