HutchFan Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) Now spinning: McCoy Tyner - Passion Dance (Milestone, 1979) with Ron Carter & Tony Williams I wish McCoy would've recorded more with Tony. I think they're supremely well-suited to each other. Tyner is one of the few pianists/musicians whose drive and power is every bit the equal of Williams'. But IIRC their only collaborations are Passion Dance, Counterpoints (a companion disc from the same concert), and Supertrios. Am I missing anything?

HutchFan Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 On to the second disc from the same concert: My version of this is actually a CD, not an LP -- but I'm posting it here for continuity's sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Reading Joachim-Ernst Berendt's liner notes, I came across: "The most fluent of the early jazz clarinet players was not the overrated Sidney Bechet, but Albert Nicholas …." Leaving Albert Nicholas aside, the "overrated" comment about Sidney Bechet is one of the most ignorant things I've ever read (even granting that Bechet's main horn was soprano). I stopped reading the notes at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped reading the notes at that point. I have that album, but don't remember that from the notes. That's really horrifyingly dumb. Stan Getz - At Montreux (Polydor). The "Captain Marvel" band live in 1972. I don't believe this has ever been issued in the US, except in video form on a DVD with really awful sound. I bought this record in a little record shop near Lila Torg (Little Square) in Malmö , Sweden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Now for something completely different: Sly & the Family Stone - Greatest Hits (Epic). I haven't listened to Sly in years, but just found this near-mint LP, and I'm having a blast spinning it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) The Joe Daley Trio - At Newport '63 [RCA Victor] first listen to today's arrival. Purchased simply because I've read so much about it on this board over the last few years and thought I'd better see what all the fuss was about!

Clunky Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Clare Fischer————Music inspired by the Kinetic Sculptures of Don Conard Mobiles————-(CF Records) Think Sun Ra soloing on a synth and you pretty much get the idea of what’s on offer here. CF Records seems to be a part of Revelation Records judging by the text on the sleeve. This and Great White Hope! offer up a very different side to the adventurous Fischer.

Sounds fascinating. I have most of Fischer's LPs, but not that one. I would love for Mosaic to produce a set that rounds up Fischer's Revelation recordings. They deserve wider exposure, IMO. . . From a commercial point of view, I suppose such a set wouldn't be viable for Mosaic. But I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a bunch of Fischer sides on Revelation/MPS and Discovery (jazzhouserecords.co.uk) Some solo stuff, lots with Gary Foster and his sort of Latin group- Salsa Picante. There’s not a dud amongst them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
