What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[Homefromtheforest]

Nat Adderley "introducing" (wing, DG USA)

Various "new blue horns" (riverside, DG mono USA". Only the first mono issue has the "flugelin the blues" track by Clark Terry with Thelonious Monk.  The stereo issue has a totally different Clark Terry track without Monk.  Collector nerd trivia for those who care!

Dizzy Reece "star bright" (blue note, 47 w 63rd mono ear DG USA)

yes, it's pretty good. My favorite Maslak is the duo with Charles Moffett on Soul Note. The trio with Mark Miller and Sadiq Shahid is enjoyable too (records on Circle and Waterland). I've never had the second Leo with Lindberg and Murray but would imagine it's quite nice.

Heiner Stadler - Brains on Fire (Musical Heritage Society reissue)

[jeffcrom]

Bunk Johnson - Spicy Advice (GHB). I don't play this one often enough - a session recorded for radio transcription discs in 1944, with a west coast pickup band (although most of them were from  New Orleans). This ties with Bunk's later New York Decca session as the best recording job he ever had, and it's niice to hear him with a different group of musicians from his usual George Lewis/Jim Robinson/Baby Dodds circle. Besides Bunk, the most heavily featured musician here is clarinetist Wade Whaley - just as "authentically" New Orleans as George Lewis, but in some ways more sophisticated and in some ways more old-fashioned than Lewis.

My copy is on the Scottish GI label.

Fred Hopkins is an absolute monster on bass.  He left us far too early but I did get to see him with Air and David Murray.

Mine too. GI Records on Raeburn Place was a record shop I recall from my youth. It's just around the corner from where I live now. Pressing quality of the Wallington is just ok IIRC.

[kh1958]

Bernard Purdue, Shaft (Prestige)

Shelley Manne and His Men (Contemporary ten inch). With Art Salt on alto sax. Strangely familiar.

Terry Gibbs Quartet, Straight Ahead (Verve), Except it is a quintet.

I bought a few interesting things by mail order from GI (Gordon Ingliss) Records back in the day.  The pressing quality is as, you say just okay, but the sound is rather flat.  The US issue was a rarity back then so this issue was very welcome.

Dexter Gordon ---- One flight up------( BN) Cisco audiophile edition.

 

Very good sound on this beautifully haunting date. I always fine it tough narrowing down LTD's best Blue Notes but this has to amongst the runners.
