JSngry Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 Not quite as clean as the Bartok Records LP, but pretty damn close. No scratches, just a few one-time pops. And no noise at all in the quiet spaces. I had forgotten how quiet a well-made and well-cared for LP could really be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 6, 2019 Report Share Posted April 6, 2019 i have a 78 rpm bartock records set on 3 red-coloured discs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 A very nice record and some of the tunes from "My Fair Lady", "Paint my wagon" and so on cannot be heard often by a jazz combo. Great line of the 57 edition of the Messengers with Griff and Bill Hardman. I bought this RCA "Black and White" Series in spring 1978 and still have it in good shape. A beautiful thing. Once I met Bill Hardman and told him that the first time I heard his trumpet was on this "Messengers play Lerner and Lowe" and he said "yeah, I remember that date" .

He's one of my all-time favorite trumpeters -- and I never had that opportunity.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say, you can check them out on rehearsal and tell them how you want a certain tune, but not on stage ! I don´t know what he wanted, everything sounded fine, but I think you don´t necesarly have to lecture musicians for playing "Bye Bye Blackbird". I´d say he has a fine sound and was really a 100% trumpet player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote (by Leonard Feather, FWIW hereabouts ); "... this was potentially a four-star album, except for the material, which fits like the first suit you pick off the pipe rack. On the other hand, commercially speaking, i know Vik's Bob Rolontz was wise to use this gimmick, for it should certainly help the Messengers towards a healthy sale."

Gheorghe Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 A classic, and I bought it also 1978 (those "That´s Jazz" series was easy to purchase and a good way to start a collection for a youngster like me ) when I was heavily into all that "New Stuff", discovering the music of Ornette Coleman and other avantgarde pioneers. This one is particularly intersting, since Trane has worked with other free jazz musicians like Pharoah Sanders, but this one with Don is especially welcome. The even play some Ornette compositions, so Ornette was omnipresent then. And "Bemsha Swing" was a favourite of Don Cherry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
