Count Basie, Hall of Fame (Verve)

Chick Corea, Bliss (Muse) (aka, Pete LaRoca, Turkish Women at the Bath)

I haven't heard the original Douglas LP, but this Muse reissue has quite fine sound.

King Pressing.

[Dan Gould]

Really strong straight up bop from a guy who is known for a few records with McGriff and more than a few on Pablo as last leader of Basie's reed section.

[jazzbo]

Sun Ra "Solar Myth Approach, Vols. 1 and 2" Corbett v. Dempsey 2 cd set, disc 1

Hard to describe how transformed this release is by the new mastering. . . it never sounded half this good before.

Then on to a new fave, Marcela Mangebeira "Simples". . . a Brazilian singer doing bossa nova with new elements, not unlike Paul Morelenbaum has done this century as well. I totally dig this cd.

Stefon Harris "Black Action Figure" Blue Note cd.

not played this in probably a decade but I recall it being really excellent. Another to dig out...

[mjazzg]

Brother Ah - Divine Music [Manufactured Recordings]

currently 'Meditations', previously 'The Sea'

Each time I play LPs from this box I enjoy them more. A great collection.

I've come to really appreciat all his work--his most recent with Blackout has gronw on me and grooves with me.

Just realized this was in the wrong thread. Mea culpa.

NP:

Jimmy McGriff - Blues to the Bone (Milestone)

Fun to hear Al Grey here.  You don't hear trombones with Hammond organ groups everyday.  But Grey sounds sweeeeeet, as does the whole band.

John Coltrane - The Stardust Sessions (Prestige)

Oh yes, this was a favourite of mine in my first years of listening to jazz as a Teenager. 

I was really fascinated by the title tune, one of Trane´s best ballads of the 50´s. And Garland´s solo is also great, and of Course, the great bowed solo by Paul Chambers,

I’ve got the 24000 series 2LP of that one too and will give it a spin this weekend. Magnificent stuff - and Wilbur Harden is a good foil  !

Beaver Harris 360° Music Experience - Negcaumongus (Cadence Jazz)
with Ken McIntyre, Ricky Ford, Hamiet Bluiett, Don Pullen, Cameron Brown, and steel drummer Francis Haynes

Powerful.

 

[Rabshakeh]

I love the duet with the steel drums on the second side of this. 

[sidewinder]

Some good material on this UK CBS 2LP put out by Teo and co.

Spinning now. One of the thinnest slabs of vinyl I’ve ever seen, typical of US pressings in 1976 (Impulse were masters of that art). I have to say though, it sounds excellent !

[kh1958]

America's Greatest Jazzmen (Coleman Hawkins, Tommy Flanagan, Willis Jackson, Gene Ammons, Ted Curson, Dave Pike) Play The Broadway Scene (Prestige Moodsville)

Jimmy Rowles, The Paws that Refresh (Choice)(
