JSngry Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 It's ok, fun enough. It was one of Oliver Nelson's last projects, not one of his major efforts by any means... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 I saw one going 'cheep cheep' in a remainders shop in London once and thought, '$6,000,000 man'? Come off it Groove! Well, If I see another I may get it. After all, I've got this, which I just finished ripping/ Star wars (1977 Versatile) Last, before I turn off the turntable for the evening, Â Red Holloway - Hittin' the road again. This one never fails to get a play at least once a year or sometimes more often. MG Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 The $6,000,000 Man was a hit TV show that Oliver Nelson composed the theme for, that's what that was all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the greatest Forrest recordings IMO. I have a copy of that one very nicely signed by Al Grey - and also Jimmy Forrest I think. It was obviously sold at one of their UK gigs. Will have to dig it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 4 hours ago, The Magnificent Goldberg said: Still rippin'. Now doing Groove Holmes - X77 (PJ, c1970) With Thornel Schwartz, Paul Humphrey and someone called Bob West on electric bass, presumably because the X77 didn't have bass pedals - but would have been more easily transported. It's definitely less groovy and the organ doesn't sound any too good, but... Haven't played THIS one since 2012. Actually, it's getting better than I remembered it  Must be lowering my standards. MG  Bob West played on several West Coast dates, including Clare Fischer's "Extensions." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Sam Jones - The Bassist! (Discovery, 1979) with Kenny Barron & Keith Copeland    6 hours ago, The Magnificent Goldberg said: Just been ripping Al Grey's "Struttin' & shoutin'' (Columbia, 1976) I don't think too much of Columbia, but this is a very nice one, with Waymon Reed!!! and Danny Moore, who probably is the trumpet player you can hear, Jimmy Forrest (YAY!) Cecil Payne, Ray Bryant, Milt Hinto and, again, Bobby Durham. Struttin' & Shoutin' is a TERRIFIC record.  Edited August 21, 2018 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG "Thesaurus" is the only one of those you've mentioned that's at all comparable, and "Extensions," while different, is arguably superior -- certainly in execution. And though it does lack Warne Marsh, Jerry Coker is an interesting substitute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
