jeffcrom Posted August 25, 2018 Report Posted August 25, 2018 Â Â Boogie With Canned Heat (Pickwick). Not even the Liberty original, but the ten-years-later Pickwick reissue. I was taking a walk in the neighborhood with my wife, and this was in a stack of records someone had put on the curb. It's not something I would ever buy, but for free it was a hoot. Fun blues-rock, and Sunnyland Slim even plays on one track. Ken McIntyre - Home (Inner City). One of the few records with Jaki Byard on which he doesn't dominate, or at least strongly influence the direction. Paul Bley - Ballads (ECM). A nearly noiseless German pressing which I've had for 40 years. Deep music. Quote

mjazzg Posted August 25, 2018 Report Posted August 25, 2018 New York Art Quartet - Call It Art [Triple Point] LP1. Starts with 'Banging On The White House Door' which seems somewhat apt this week 14 minutes ago, soulpope said: Haven't seen this edition before .... beautiful cover photography .... Me neither. I don't ever recall seeing a Jazz LPÂ on Island before. Maybe they released lots and they've passed me by This label means reggae, and some other genres, to me but not Jazz Quote
sidewinder Posted August 25, 2018 Report Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) 30 minutes ago, soulpope said: Haven't seen this edition before .... beautiful cover photography .... Sleeve notes are by Richard Williams and John Stevens and I have the feeling that one or both of these were main protagonists in persuading Chris Blackwell of Island to put it out. As it mentions in the sleeve this was ‘legendary’ in the UK as not domestically issued in the 1960s and Stevens mentions many musicians being aware of it through tape copies. I suspect that one of these might be Kenny Wheeler, who has acknowledged Booker as a major influence (you can hear it a mile off in this LP). This was a ‘one off’ at the time, I don’t recall Island following up with others. Essentially driven by the Booker Little UK fanbase and widely issued e,g, you could pick it up in WH Smiths I recall ! (they probably thought it was along the lines on Peter Tosh, U Roy etc. ). Island did put out the very occasional jazz LP. Harold McNair ‘Affectionate Fink’ comes to mind, a very rare LP. All in all, the quartet set always struck me as a stunning release.
