I love Hampton Hawes on the Gene Ammons Montreux 1973 Album, very fine rhodes Sound. He really could hold his own on Fender Rhodes and is underrated.

Interesting - I have that UK issue in a blue/white Liberty. A short-lived phenomenon.

I am curious to know what sets it apart from a US release. My copy is in US printed sleeve, so only the sticker reveals it as a UK release. Were these pressed in UK (though the VAN GELDER stamp maybe suggests they were not)? Edited June 2, 2020 by Daniel A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) From my recollection the sleeve is US but the vinyl indicates made in the UK on the label. A bit like the German Liberty LPs of the vintage. I’ll have to check but I think it is ‘Van Gelder’ in the runout. These UK issues were definitely very short lived. In 1970 the economy was still doing OK. The industrial unrest and power cuts of 1972 onwards would have decimated budgets allocated to UK Blue Note shenanigans. Major own-goal.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 The Huckle-buck & Robbins' Nest - A Buck Clayton Jam Session (Columbia CL-548). I do like these jam sessions a lot. This music has slowly become one of my favorite Mosaic box sets. As great as these LP cuts are, hearing the unedited tunes with the full alternate takes on the Mosaic set is even better.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 On a Buck Clayton kick... Buck Clayton with Buddy Tate - Buck & Buddy Blow The Blues (Stereo Swingville SV 2030). This is an unusual LP for the times as it has a regular purple Prestige/Swingville label but a textured cover, which I've not seen on an older Prestige release. As for the music, I do dig those blues, so what's not to like here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel A Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 Clifford Brown's Study In Brown, Nippon Phonogram pressing from 1971. This was one of the first jazz albums I heard at home when growing up, so I know it well and there is obviously some nostalgia involved. However, I haven't listened to it for some years, and I am probably hearing some things today that were beyond me in the past. The interplay in the band is just superb, and to me, Harold Land is the ideal partner for Brownie. Great tunes, too; the perfect hard bop album.

That Clayton Mosaic is a corker - love the way it captures the 30th St studio ambience. My CD version was obtained from the ‘Horse’s Mouth’ i.e. M. Cuscuna.
