Grachan Moncur III - Evolution

A beauty. Featuring "Crenshaw" and "Mc Lean" according to my Universal/BN covers.

edit: realizing these typos were on every issue.

Herb Ellis, Nothing But the Blues (Verve)

Great record! I'll have to pull it off the shelf later.

I play the CD often. The CD adds a few hard-to-find JATP performances from their Paris show in 1958.

Yes, Getz and Eldridge together is a fantastic combination. My copy, the cover is falling apart, but the LP is in terrific condition; trumpet label version sounds really fine.

Johnny Lytle Trio - Blue Vibes [Jazzland]

my copy's seen some action in previous lives. In fact, it sounds a bit like the above sleeve looks but amongst all the "atmospheric" background noise the music shines through gloriously.

Next up..

Steve Williamson - A Waltz for Grace. ( Verve 843 088-1 )

That's a good one.

Williamson has made a few live appearances in the last couple of yearsĀ after many years seemingly away from the circuit. I hope he becomes more active still and records again

Charles Tyler - EasternĀ Man Alone [ESP]

Ā a recent purchase that knocks me out each time I play it, which is often at the moment. The use of cello and bass, no drums, is masterful

Chuffed with todayā€™s Ā£5 find. Good as the CD version sounds, this stereo LP from 1969Ā is way better and in fineĀ nick. Even came with a pristine accompanying Ember booklet covering this release and a Ben Webster that they did.

I've never heard any of the Johnny Lytle Riversides, listened randomly to a few tracks on the streaming service as wasn't too excited by what I heard. I'll admit it's no way to any music you care about but it serves as a screening process.

Ā 

NP a couple of favourites...neither new..

Ā 

Air------Air time-------(nessa) Ā I noticed that Threadgill has a new one coming out soon on PiĀ 

Ā 

Annette Peacock-------I'm the oneĀ ------( RCA) Ā I've been listening to a few recent reissues ( Bamboo) with Paul Bley

I don't think you should look for anything too deep in Lytle's music.Ā  Ā But some of it is quite uplifting. That's how I find it.Ā  Plenty of others will differ.

That's generally right. But this one, 'People & love' on Milestone, DOES go deep.

It's a brilliant album.

Here's a track.

I agree. Good time 'groove' music but then I'm a sucker for vibes most anywhere

I've wanted that LP for a long time. Pockets have to be quite deep too, sadly

It's on CD, as a twofer with his previous LP 'The soulful rebel' which is more like the usual Johnny Lytle kind of thing.

Here it is, on Amazon UK, for Ā£9.21 new.

PS If you want the vinyl, you can get it from Discogs. Ā£21-41, which is cheap for the quality of music you get. But it depends where you live and where the sellers are.
