What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[clifford_thornton]

yeah, Sing the Children Over is excellent. I listened to it fairly recently. Saw Kath play a couple years ago in my neighborhood and it was a good gig -- she was opening for Ed Askew, whom I've since become friends with.

Carsten Meinert Kuartet-----To You ----( Fredericksburg Records) 2015 reissue of 1968 Danish LP

Very much in the manner of classic Coltrane quartet. Meinert does bring something else to the picnic so this doesn't merely sound like a. Trance copyist at work. Very high quality reissue . FR have a tiny output but the two things I have released under their imprint are of the highest order. Definitely a label to watch. I'll be interested to see what jazz they do next. I missed out on the CD which has 4 previously unreleased tracks.

A very fine reissue - these guys seem to be putting in the same attention to detail and quality that International Phonograph are doing with CDs. Intense session - the booklet photo showing couples slow dancing in front of the band must be a set-up.

This is the other release that I have on this label, a 2LP set by Christian Schwindt. Also a new name to me but the write up sounded enticing,

note that the BE! single LP reissue is an unauthorized bootleg. They also booted the Meinert recently. Fredriksberg has worked with the artists a/o their estates on this music.

An interesting mix. I bet they played well together.

Well, it was something of a sharp right turn after the Lacy. I enjoyed them all equally, in any case.

Read about the beginning of Steve Lacy´s career!

pretty sure Jeff knows that better than almost anyone here

Herb Pomeroy Orchestra------Life is a many splendored gig-----( Columbia EMI) ex Roulette 1957

 

Some interesting tunes an playing here with an enticing cast of unsual suspects. Boots Mussulii plays fab  alto sax , Jaki Byard is among the tenor sax players. Ray Santisi whose work with Serge Chaloff is at the piano stool.  A little like a Kenton side but it swings, has plenty of passion and doesn't try to be too clever. i'd be interested to know if this outfit recorded any more.

[JSngry]

Not the exact same band as far as I can tell, but from roughly the same time:

Arrangements not by Pomeroy either (Al Cohn & Ernie Wilkins instead), but...it's there.

I'd forgotten about that disc (which I have and like, even if Kral doesn't really float my boat)

 

Now playing ...

Sam Noto------2-4-5-------(Unisson Records)

 

Quite a dry sound on this lovely date. The duos with bassist Neil Swainson are especially effective. Noto's originals are quite arresting. I've not played this album in years but it's only now hitting me how good it is. This deserves to be played more often and better known. Ted O'Reilly of this board gets production credit.

"For Once In My Life" on the Jacquet album is a very sad rendition to my ears.
