clifford_thornton Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 I like Rod Levitt. His RCA's are fun. Never seen the Fontana offered for sale, but I do have and dig the Riverside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter is renamed here Sandra, I wonder if it's a dedication to Clifford's wife Sandy or to the singer on the Leadbelly album Sandra Douglass ( who only appears on this record).

Larry Kart Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 I'll weigh in on this, in part because I was a good friend of Russell Thorne and heard the group many times. Daley is a kind of curate's egg, as the Brits say. When he tries to get abstract and "out," he can get a bit corny and rhythmically stiff. When he plays "hot" so to speak, as on "Dexterity" and "One Note," his real gifts are apparent; he is basically a hot fluid player; the greater the pressure the higher the inspiration, a la Johnny Griffin perhaps. Somewhere I have some duo tracks with Joe and Rich Corpolongo that are just scaldingly intense. Thorne and Albert Stinson are to me the great post-LaFaro bassists, and while Hal Russell doesn't get the space he deserves here and is not near what he would do in later years, what he does is choice. BTW, Daley is quite effective on Thorne's striking "Knell." There when he gets spacey, it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 That solo on "Dexterity" has been a favorite of mine forever. The whole band performance, actually. Looks like the long-teased and now-forgotten box set of live tapes isn't gonna happen. That's really unfortunate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Classic Series - wrong season but I don’t care. Have it on the Mosaic Select but good to have a nice sounding vinyl version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted August 28, 2022 Report Share Posted August 28, 2022 Now spinning: The Bill Perkins Quartet - Journey to the East (Contemporary, 1985) Bill Perkins (ts, fl) with Frank Strazzeri (p); Joel DiBartolo (b); and Peter Donald (d) I've been enjoying Bill Perkins' music lately. He seems to have carved out his own little niche among the many Lester-inspired tenors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
