HutchFan Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Count Basie - Basie Jam at the Montreux Jazz Festival 1975 (Pablo) Interesting to hear Johnny Griffin, who plays like his normal bad-ass self, in this context -- since he wasn't a Granz jam session regular. and Art Tatum - Masterpieces (MCA, 2-LPs) Everything here sounds great -- but today I'm really enjoying the bluesy band tracks with Joe Turner's vocals.

A good tribute. Both passed at young ages. Hadn't realize until you pointed it out that they both passed on the same day of the year.

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 took my Portrait of Cannonball out of the shrink today, there was no special sticker, it was crispy + yellowed, and crap i kept it on there sixty freaking years it wasnt protecting the jacket at all so i thought screw it and i took it off, looks a lot better IMO. It was a pretty involved process though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 The Joe Thomas Group - Comin' Home [Buddah/Polydor UK] impulse purchase in a shop this afternoon. Enjoying it a lot more on second spin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) The Afro-Blues Quintet Plus One - Introducing [CBS UK] Never heard of them before and purchased with the Thomas above. Reckon they must've come from the same collection. It's a Soul Jazz fiesta here this afternoon. Where's The Magnificent Goldberg when I need him for education about these albums?

Ben just e-mailed me about the availability. Ordered my copy. I've wondered about the viability of Newvelle Record's business model. If all it takes is waiting a couple of years and to get a CD version with extra tracks for about 25% of the cost of the Newvelle LP version, I would think many will wait. I can't see them gaining too many more subscriptions now that this is happening. Now, if they had launched their service with a much more reasonable price, I'd be a subscriber already.

Right; 6 records for $400, I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 It’s good - adventurous early 70s trio with Harry Miller. Ratip was living in London at the time but is now resident in Turkey I believe. There is one other LP by him on the Lansdowne Series which is more straight ahead I think. Now up - lovely easy-listening disk from Amancio D. Sort of ‘Val Doonican with balls’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
