Love your taste in music, by the way. Thanks for the compliment. I bought that John Hurt record when I was in college. It still sounds great - a classic.

A second pressing, I think. Charlie Mariano - Modern Saxaphone (sic) Stylings (Imperial 10" LP). Really nice music from 1951 or so, with Herb Pomery and Jaki Byard. But the first sentence of the liner notes hurts: "Quality, quantity and youth in Jazz today is a rare commodity indeed." Later, during side two: There's a no-nonsense directness to Byard's piano playing at this early stage that is in some ways more appealing to me than the eclectic, whole-history-of-jazz-in-every-solo approach he adopted later.

jeffcrom Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Borbetomagus & Shaking Ray Levis (Agaric 10" LP). Wild, but well-structured noise improvisations from a summit meeting of two groups. Cover art by the late Dennis Palmer. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homefromtheforest Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Masahiko Satoh/Gary Peacock/Masahiko Togashi "wave II" (paddlewheel, Japan). All compositions by Peacock; I've owned the "wave I" CD for many years and finally tracked down this second outing by this amazing trio. Â Fantastic production too but that's not really a surprise. Joe Henderson "Henderson's Habiliment" (Victor, Japan) the original gatefold Japanese issue of the more common Milestone release known as "live in Japan". Â A stunning concert with Henderson in peak form! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aparxa Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 It is the first record with Henry Red Allen that I listen to, and it is a beautiful one!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tapscott Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Side A of this album is superb big band jazz...side B is spottier.... I'd never noticed this before, but as Rick Stepton's trombone solo closes "Lush Life" and the track ends, a voice says, "Beautiful". Sounds like Buddy.   Edited December 31, 2015 by John Tapscott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Â Stan Kenton - A Presentaion of Progressive Jazz (cover) / A Concert in Progressive Jazz (labels) (Capitol). Whatever it's called, it's a little dated, but mostly pretty great. Tabby Thomas - Rockin' With the Blues (Maison de Soul). The great Baton Rouge bluesman in 1984, with his son Chris Thomas King on guitar and Henry Gray on piano. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
