Gheorghe Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) I´ll never Forget how I purchased this: It was the day after I first had seen live the Max Roach Quartet and the next day I hurried to my record dealer (Radio Kratz, Mariahilferstrasse) and asked if they have some Max Roach and Mr. Kratz gave me this one. Though it´s done some 15 years earlier then my first live concert of Max Roach, I was quite astonished to hear very similar Things in his drumming, mostly on his Extended drum solo on "Speak Brother Speak" which is a Variation of "the drum also waltzes". Great tune also "Variation" . And since I was a really Mingus man, I had all the Mingus stuff on that "America" label, I was pleased to see that Cliff Jordan and Mal Waldron also were Mingus Alumni. Not to Mention Max Roach who had recorded with Mingus not only on Massey Hall, but also on the Bohemia stuff "Mingus Quintet plus Max Roach"...…. Edited July 17, 2019 by Gheorghe Quote

Gheorghe Posted July 18, 2019 Report Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I think this one was my first LP of the Messengers. It was the RCA "Black and White" Series. Really nice with Bill Hardman and Johnny Griffin, and the way how they played stuff like "I could have danced all that night" , otherwise rarely played by jazzmusicians…...

Gheorghe Posted July 18, 2019 Report Posted July 18, 2019 I saw Joe Farrell once in 1983 in a quartet with Joanne Brackeen on piano. Great evening. Even if Chet Baker was scheduled to Play with Joe Farrell but as on so many occasions was not able to make the gig. Quote

Gheorghe Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 I thought it is Charlie Haden painted. I remember this Album, it was around in the late 70´s. The only strange Thing in this combination is Hampton Hawes, he doesn´t necessarly fit into that Group of free jazz pioneers. But the idea to Play Duos with his former emplyoees was very interesting. Wasn´t "Soapsuds" also a Ornette - Haden duo ? I don´t have it. I don´t know who Billy Jean King and Bobby Riggs are. Quote

mikeweil Posted July 22, 2019 Report Posted July 22, 2019 (edited) Original Jazz Classics LP reissue - flawless pressing. Japanese LP reissue. Newborn is a monster pianist on these! Each time I listen to a Contemporary label LP I can't help but think how much better, more natural they sound like all the Rudy Van Gelder recordings. Zutty Singleton rocks on side one of this LP!
