What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[sidewinder]

Another new one. Bergenfield DG mono pressing. A bit neglected but sounding great after a wash.

Intensive clean - sounds fabulous, in typical RVG fashion !

David Friedman - Of The Wind's Eye (Enja, 1981)

That looks interesting. I have a Double Image album and the one with Chet but no more Friedman, worth investigating?

It's a terrific album, IMO.  Most definitely worth checking out.

Good deal.  Hope you enjoy.

I love hearing David Friedman and Daniel Humair together.  If you dig Of the Wind's Eye, you might also want to investigate Triple Hip Trip.  It features the same lineup, minus Jane Ira Bloom.

Thanks again. I'll definitely investigate further. I love vibes so not too sure why Friedman has largely passed me by

Just realised the Tidal one is not 'Of The Wind's Eye' but 'Shades Of Change' with Geri Allen which is a pretty good thing as it stands

Another decent find for a couple of quid. Even has Steve  Voce’s Jazz Journal review included as an insert so a promo copy I guess. 

Lots of early 80s hype in the sleeve notes emphasising that this is a ‘Digital’ session. Jeez !

Seen this Telarc LP millions of times but never had a copy.

Both very good albums and here too!😁👍

You're really giving me itchy purchase finger with these Owls 😀

That record in particular must have gotten pretty good distribution stateside (not just as an Inner City). It was everywhere at one point.

Superb playing by Taft Jordan in particular. 👍

Appreciating this one - Thad had just left but there were some nice new arrangements by him on this one.

Oh how I wished for a TP of this one but I don’t think it’s gonna happen. I finally managed to obtain a OG copy for a ‘reasonable’ price. Pity almost all of them have ring wear or cut out or even both. But the vinyl sounds so incredibly great I don’t feel the need for a new reissue anymore. I nevertheless hope for others it will come because this is essential Lee Morgan. That moment Billy Harper kicks in on Capra Black is one of those classic ‘amen’ moments in jazz. This whole record always made me wonder what direction Morgan would head to if he had not been shot.

Really the names say it all don’t they: Lee, Billy Harper, Grachan Moncur III, Harold Mabern, Julie Merritt, Reggie Workman and Freddie Waits….
