clifford_thornton Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 Electrum is okay - wouldn't throw down a lot of money on it but it's a decent, not-uninteresting record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corto maltese Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 Well, "okay" or "decent" just isn't enough, is it ? Not when there's so much good, great and brilliant around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 yeah, but how does one know "brilliant"Â if there isn't any "decent/solid" to compare it to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 Ha, that reminds me of some of the pieces in An Anthology, which I was just going through the other night. 2 hours ago, JSngry said: First World Problem!

clifford_thornton Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Couldn't resist getting one of those some years ago even though I already had the regular Incus pressing. Picked up one with an Alan Davie print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Pretty Baby Soundtrack (ABC). Don't laugh. I've never seen the movie, but the soundtrack album is one of the great New Orleans jazz albums of the 1970s. Kid Thomas Valentine, Raymond Burke, Louis Cottrell, Louis Nelson, Bob Greene, and the New Orleans Ragtime Orchestra with Lionel Ferbos are all on board. James Booker even contributes a vocal on Jelly's "Whinin' Boy." This is the third copy I've owned; the first two sounded terrible and not great, respectively. I just found a sealed copy; I'm playing it for the first time, and it sounds pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 Woods/Byrd 'The Young Bloods' (Esquire). Â Great rhythm section of Al Haig, Teddy Kotick and Charlie Persip on this one, something for a 'comeback' for Haig back at the time of issue.

AllenLowe Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 interesting session, but Al, post-alcoholic binges, shows the first signs of deterioration, so I have a little trouble listening; it's a continuity thing; he will start a phrase and just lose the momentum, and start all over. This was a bigger problem in the '70s when I knew him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
