That was me until I really got into the specifics of playing bebop (a pursuit which never really took hold because as much as I loved being in the room with it, when I got into bed with it, I felt like I was with somebody who deserved different from me, they deserved deep knowing intimacy, not just naive worship). My casual impression was that he was “just” a really good Bud Powell disciple. But...even if that is ultimately true, his knowledge runs deep. Very deep. Very, very, VERY deep. All of which just to say, Barry Harris can play, really play, but if it ain’t for you, don’t blame him, because his shit is right. "you have neither taste and/nor ear for the subtleties of bebop harmony" You got me in one sentence Well, truly, I can't, and never could, be bothered with all that shit. MG Oh, and I can't say I like Bud Powell very much. Got one of his LPs; bought in 1985 and played twice since 1987. I do think the art of a great musician is to get through to people who have neither taste nor an ear for its subtleties. Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Coleman Hawkins and many others could. That's enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly, or not, parts of it makes me think of Prime Time Yep, I thought the same thing about hearing Prime Time in this music. The Players and Peregrinations have a big, fat bottoms with a keening alto across the top -- just like Prime Time. Glad you're enjoying it.

mikeweil Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) Congrats! Let's hear how it is after you have listened .... Now spinning a bunch of LPs - looks like I'll be in a vinyl mood for some days: Preparing for a workshop teaching Cuban conga de comparsa rhythms to a Frankfurt pecussion band. What a great encounter ..... This is great! Perfect demonstration of how black music developped in the Carribean to forms superficially similar to jazz. But they had the Carribean grooves the US producers didn't want when recording New Orleans bands. Or whatever ...

Hope it plays well. That LP, 'Tenor sax favorites vol 3' was the start of Bob Weinstock really comprehending what to do with Jug. Each side is a complete session of preferred takes. After that, there was 'Woofin' n tweeting' then a load of bop jam sessions that were unsuitable for him, but probably fine for parties.

No, but Bob produced 'The 78 era' so he may have got it privately from Fantasy back in the day when it existed. I didn't know that. I expect stuff is pricey and will have big money for postage here added. Oh well. MG PS - curiosity got the better of me. There's another copy of the same session in for the spring... Oh, is that it, and it's past tense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 that must be when the guy got it. he sure turned it around fast. but i emailed him and he said they are definetly alternate takes, so i went ahead with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 You guys, im really excited about my special record. Maybe i can make a video of it, im not set up for some direct kind of transfer. But I promise to take good care of it. Concords never going to need to use it again, trust me. Theres no "ultimate gene ammons" box set around the corner, and im sure they didnt loose the tapes, Fantasy's been pretty good about not loosing tapes.
