Larry Kart Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Have liked this one for 54 years now; it hasn't dated a bit. Don Friedman, Attila Zoller, Richard Davis, Joe Chambers. A pricey CD, but If you see this one used on vinyl, don't hesitate. Friedman and Zoller were a great team, as were Davis and Chambers. Too bad that Friedman and Zoller are gone.

I love that album. As I get older, this song in particular certainly has a fuller meaning for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty damn good Sonny Grey is in prime form and this is of course Mal’s great period although he doesn’t get to much space. Definitely interesting and worth hearing.

All CD versions I heard of The Soul Man! had way too much compression (2 recent Japanese, and also I believe 1996 Germany, except the 1992 Japanese Victor VICJ-23726 which I'm spinning now, mastered at Fantasy Studios 1991. These are the only 4 CD versions Discogs lists. Was there an early 90s US release on CD? Edited January 13, 2020 by erwbol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The German CD was an early effort by ZYX to do the mastering in-house according to Discogs. A few years later this lead to the disastrous black border 20bit digipacks.

Definitely interesting and worth hearing. I have the original French pressing on Numera (which was apparently distributed by Futura, as it's got a big Futura logo sticker on the verso -- different cover art). It's a really nice record. Grey, Waldron, and Clarke are certainly the reasons to pick it up, as all are indeed in top form. It's a moody, somewhat avant-garde leaning post-bop date.

Very accurate description! The version you have is quite rare and goes for quite a lot of money. But I do believe it is not the only rare thing in your collection The Japanese version on mercury is a little easier to get. Sound quality is very good.

sidewinder Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) 10 years after it came out I finally got this great Pure Pleasure release. Sonics are superb, you could almost be in the club. Didn’t catch this particular Ronnie Scott engagement but I did catch Art as part of George Wein’s London Fest that same Summer season, so it all has great personal meaning. Better late than never. It blows the Mole Jazz LPs out of the water ! Edited January 13, 2020 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 You do! It's as good as you think it is. Note the "45 tours" which I didn't spot before ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
