jcam_44 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Trying to decide if I want to spring for the Super Deluxe Edition that recently came out. The OG vinyl has always sounded so good to me, I want to justify the purchase but can't convince myself. The CD version I have is adequate but sounds slammed to me, unlike the vinyl which makes sense given the "newness" of cds at the time. Also trying to decide if I want to get Emancipation on vinyl given my affection for that album (strangely I know but probably my favorite Prince album) but never being happy with the cds sound.

mjazzg Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Today... The Vinny Golia Large Ensemble - Facts Of Their Own Lives [Nine Winds] limbering up for the imminent arrival of the 3LP set Beaver Harris 360 Degree Experience - A Well Kept Secret [Shemp] Barefield/Holland/Tabbal Trio - Transdimensional Space Window [Trans African Records] It's a lot better than the cover suggests. Anteloper - Tour Beats, volume 1 [International Anthem] Joshua Abrams - Magnetoception [Eremite] not noticed previously that this isn't credited to The Natural Information Society, only the latter ones in the series are. but what a series and band/concept.

HutchFan Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 NP: Charlie Mariano - Crystal Bells (CMP, 1980) with keyboardist Stu Goldberg and the Stone Alliance rhythm section: Gene Perla and Don Alias Excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 Delightful solo piano. Most of the music has a ruminative, "after hours" vibe -- like he's playing for himself, rather than an audience. And note the album cover photo. It seems to capture McShann at a moment when his glance is turned inward. Image and music in perfect alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could have been recorded About the same period when I was lucky to see Jay McShann live. As much as I remember he was booked with a local Rhythm Section, and at one certain Moment in the last set the female singer Etta Scollo (from Sicilia) sat in for one song…...
