sidewinder Posted January 18, 2019 Report Posted January 18, 2019 Yes, the mid-70s Transatlantics are nowhere near as good. Case in point - I have a Mike Westbrook with a spindle hole concentricity issue. Typical of that era. Quote

No wonder it is worn out - obviously used for dance practice ! Edited January 18, 2019 by sidewinder Quote

I did not know Mainstream to be active in 1965. Anyway had to point out the wonderful quote by Clark Terry at the end of the liners: "It seemed to me there's too much put-down music, put-on music, hurray-for-me music and the-hell-with-everybody music. So we thought we'd have some compatible music." probably issued at the time, label began in '64. Quote
paul secor Posted January 19, 2019 Report Posted January 19, 2019 I'm not a Hal Galper fan, but Lee Konitz does some very good blowing on this one. Quote

HutchFan Posted January 19, 2019 Report Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Frank Foster & Frank Wess - Two for the Blues (Pablo) with Kenny Barron, Rufus Reid, and Marvin "Smitty" Smith IMO, the two Franks are right up there with the legendary two-tenor duos: Lockjaw & JG, Stitt & Ammons, Cohn & Zoot. 15 hours ago, paul secor said: I'm not a Hal Galper fan, but Lee Konitz does some very good blowing on this one. Lee does sound good on that one. He's such a consistent musician, especially in a duo context. I like Galper's playing too though. Edited January 19, 2019 by HutchFan Quote
porcy62 Posted January 19, 2019 Report Posted January 19, 2019 Old Parlophone mono, with the fair amount of noise, pops and clicks, the real way to listen to early Beatles, IMO. Quote
HutchFan Posted January 19, 2019 Report Posted January 19, 2019 Max Roach - Chattahoochee Red (Columbia, 1981) with Odean Pope, Cecil Bridgewater, and Calvin Hill Vital music from a killer band. I think I'm repeating myself, but ... it's so strange that this LP has never been reissued. Even if Sony/Legacy sleeps on it, it seems like somebody should have/would have licensed it by now. ... Wounded Bird? BGO? Where are you guys? For heaven's sake, it's Max Roach!!! Quote

I'd rather deal with Max's heirs than some giant multi-national corporation. ... Then again, I know NOTHING about the business side of things. Anyhow, I enjoyed that Max LP so much that I've queued up another by the same quartet: Max Roach - Pictures in a Frame (Soul Note, 1979) More great music! Quote

And somebody has to want to license it to begin with. I don't know how many "friends in the record business" that Max left behind, other than Bruce Lundvall? And I'm not 100% sure about the ownership thing. 98%, probably, but that's not 100% Quote
