HutchFan Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) A new-to-me LP that I brought home today: 6 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Stanley Turrentine - Salt Song (CTI, 1972) So good. One of Turrentine's best albums, and one of the best LPs that CTI released... in this listener's humble opinion.

All VeeJay originals I have sound good, the mono better then stereo, IMHO. 18 hours ago, Pim said: My first Monk record, bought as twoofer in the late seventies, Brilliance. edit: bought with Monk/Trane twoofer if memory serves me well.

HutchFan Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 Good Sunday morning, fellow jazz-ophiles. I'm enjoying my hot cuppa joe while listening to Maxine Sullivan's Uptown with the Scott Hamilton Quartet: 2 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: My wife has now played it three times this morning.

As I stated somewhere else I´m not really the greatest fan of female vocals, but you must be right with the comparation with Jimmy Rushing. I heard her ony twice.... and coincidally, first time on the Diz film from 1946, where she sings some blues with the band, and the other one is on a Dexter 4 LP collection I have with Dex in the bop years, all the Savoy and Dial material and a very obscure 1950 date with Helen Humes, which is only blues, slower, faster, all in the same key , As much as I remember it´s quite a soprano voice.....if I must hear female vocal at least it should be a lower range.

I would say that Humes has a unique voice, very "little girlish." I dig it, but I can understand why others may not find it appealing.
