Wonderful, I love it. I´m so glad I could see Mr. Sanders live on several occasions. He was one of my earliest favourites. Coltrane´s "At Village Vanguard AGAIN" was my first listening experience of Sander´s tenor, and "At the East" was my first Sanders LP decades ago. "Karma" I got some years ago, my wife had bought it for me. Quote

I only saw Ricky Ford and Jack Walrath twice when they were the front line of the Mingus group from 1976-77 (with Danny Mixon in 76 and Bob Neloms in 77 as the only personnel change). Walrath and Ford were a dream team and they really blew on those gigs but where underrecorded on the a bit dull studio albums of the time. When we will finally get some CDs of live concerts of those groups, there is so many discoveries now, Donald Byrd 1973, Dexter Gordon in Paris 1978, all those NorthSea Festival discoveries and those "Onkel Pö" discoveries, but Mingus ??????

Pim Posted December 18, 2022 Report Posted December 18, 2022 Some more Tina. They should really make True Blue a Classics Vinyl Series issue. Quote

Only Blakey made it to the grand old age of 71. Brooks went at 42, Morgan 33, Clark 31 and Watkins 27. And so much talent went with them! Quote

Or, wait a minute: That kind of religious hymn only for the horns at the beginning? Some "Well You Needn´t" with Hawk on tenor, is that right ? And well the sound of Gigi Gryce. IMHO he was a great composer first of all, while his sound was not the greatest. Quote
