I now see that they did not include the second session on the Connaiseur cd... That's a very weird choice. It's very, very good.

another excellent one from these series. With Junior Cook on tenor sax, Woody Shaw on piano, Ronnie Matthews on piano, Stafford James on bass and of course Louis on drums.

Good record but poor pressing. Mole Jazz I think? Their Tubby Hayes reissues weren’t much good either. 

I have the original Polydor, which sounds excellent. Beautiful album, kind of a sleeper but once you wake up on it, it really hits.

When I thought that I am ready enough for Ornette Coleman (one of my very first listenig experiences in Jazz was the Mingus Group with Dolphy from 1964), "Shape of Jazz to come" was on my wishlist but not available. My first OC albums was "Empty Foxhole" on BN and "Crisis" on Impulse. When I finally found the "Shape of Jazz...." it sounded quite conservative to me, not like "Free Jazz"......

It is strange that Randy Weston besides his standard compositions "Little Niles" and "Hi-Fly" was not very much in evidence in disc collectios or performing schedules in my country in the early 70´s, 80´s. I saw his name first on the cover of the not so good "Mingus and Friends in Concert 1972" and from an interview with Valerie Vilmer. It seems that he was very much bound to north african culture then, more than the hard core scene of NY.

this one is so incredibly good. You could easily picked it up from a used bin for 10 euros. I did anyway.

Ornette is a Texas blues saxophonist, the best one.

Randy Weston, by virtue of traveling, I was fortunately able to see twice in person. Solo piano once, and the other with his African Rhythms with Billy Harper and T.K. Blue.
