HutchFan Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 30 minutes ago, Rabshakeh said: Stanley Turrentine - Never Let Me Go (Blue Note, 1963) I really think that this is an underrated gem even within Turrentine's and Scott's catalogues. It has such a heavy hit of gospel and blues to it, but, over and above that, the timing is so stretched out. It's amazing. Rab - I agree 100%. I think it's one of their best records.

I knew the other early Berne's but not that one. I am really happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always seemed to focus more on new vinyl recent years. The Kings X branch certainly had a nice used selection pre-lockdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the King's Cross one, which has had a slight restock of its used selection since December and is worth a visit I think. West has got more interesting reissues and modern jazz at the moment than it used to have, but still pretty much all new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Kings Cross is nearer and I don't have to survive the H&City line to get there.

HutchFan Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Again: Hermeto Pascoal E Grupo - Lagoa Da Canoa Município De Arapiraca (Happy Hour/Som Da Gente, 1984) 3 hours ago, mjazzg said: Andrew Hill - Blue Black [East Wind, 1977] All those records that Andrew Hill made for East Wind are terrific: Blue Black, Hommage, and Nefertiti. Inner City issued Nefertiti in the U.S., so it's probably the most well-known of the three -- but the other two have flown under the radar, relatively speaking. I heard Hommage for the first time not that long ago, and it blew my mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something child-like about Hermeto's music -- a sort of openness or innocence -- but, at the same time, it's VERY sophisticated and poetic. I think he's in the same category as artists like Sun Ra and Rahsaan Roland Kirk. They do more than write music; they create musical worlds that are unlike anyone else's.

I like that description and completely agree although I don't really know enough about Hermeto yet - this will be rectified . Like the others there's a seeming totality to the music, it's concepts, conception and realisation. as for "Hommage" - if I don't like it it will be the only Hill out of very nearly all of them that I own that I don't like, so I'm pretty confident. I think I may have heard it a few years back. Edited April 29, 2021 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pim Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 I just can't get enough of River's live trio works from the '70's. So I've got this one, 'Streams' and the stuff on NoBuisness of course. Should I get Hues as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 One Upmanship by Mal Waldron (Enja, 1977) It's been a bit of a Waldron day here. I woke up this morning with Lacy's soprano line to 'Johnny Come Lately' from Sempre Amore in my head, and haven't really escaped since.
