Clunky Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Louis Moholo Moholo’s Five Blokes————Uplift the people———(Ogun)  Beautiful presented and paced set. Of course our worthy constituent plays mean piano here but there is stunning playing all over this. Ezontakana has a glorious soprano sax solo with grumbling tenor sax in the background. I’m assuming that Yarde is on soprano there as liner notes don’t make it clear which sax either are playing. Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrica gives me goosebumps and tense of shame that I swallowed the media lies of the early 80s regarding Mandela et al.  Ooops....... wrong thread as this is a CD not vinyl.....

If truth be told I had around half of the material already but felt compelled to get the set. X-75 being a significant factor. It's an extraordinary album, a favourite amongst many of Mr Threadgill's. I have all the music in the box on LP/CD apart from the unreleased partner session to X-75. Sometimes when I listen to X-75 I think I should have bought the box just for that session but then sense prevails...it's long gone into the stratosphere of out-of-print Mosaic pricing now 1 hour ago, Clunky said: Louis Moholo Moholo’s Five Blokes————Uplift the people———(Ogun)  Beautiful presented and paced set.

On vinyl? Interesting to see Ogun riding the wave It wasn't just the media, our dear leader of the time did her best to thoroughly besmirch the man - another moment in the catalogue of her shame (oops, sorry political alert) Edited June 7, 2018 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwbol Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I bought the Threadgill box last summer, but so far have focussed mostly on the later sessions. I think I'll put X-75 Vol. 1 on now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's supposedly Buddy Moss on guitar but, when questioned about it many years later, he denied that it was he. He did serve a prison term in the 1930's.
