clifford_thornton Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 I wonder whether the reissues are legit? Original imprint was an educational project run by French socialists. The Shepps are, I think, the only jazz records they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played it during dinner! Linguine with faux white clam sauce, with trumpet mushrooms in the role of the clams! So I guess Morricone also wrote Linguine Westerns. I love Morricone's giallo an crime scores from his classic period, which have some stylistic overlap with this album. Do you know about the 10-album library set that Morricone and Nicolai did? All of the music is generally in this vein. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the music is generally in this vein. Yes, they were reissued by Dialogo a couple of years ago (LP and CD). A well-made set and an affordable way to have all the music together. My favourite single release under Morricone's name might be this compilation from 1979 on the General Music label. It's a double album (8 long tracks) focusing on his experimental soundtrack music from the late 60s, including the stunning "Altri Dopo Di Noi" (“La Tenda Rossa”, 1968).

Gheorghe Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 14 hours ago, sidewinder said: French edition. I think I saw that at my record dealer back in the 70´s. I liked Tadd Dameron but was not prepared for Gil Evans in the same manner, so I only bought an individual Tadd Dameron LP with Trane (Mating Call), and a Musidisc LP of Tadd and Fats live at the Roost....

You may also like the score to The Cold Eyes of Fear, a.k.a. Gli occhi freddi della paura. And lots of other stuff to be discussed elsewhere.

Dmitry Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Freddie Hubbard - THE BLACK ANGEL An interesting album, especially if taken in the context of Miles's work in 1969-70. Unlike Miles, Hubbard does not abandon the hard bop all-together, but introduces it into the changing musical landscape. Insightful, perspicacious and succinct liner notes from Ed Williams of WLIB radio. In fact, some of the best liner notes I've ever read. Who was this man?

Pim Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 oh my this one’s so good. I really hope for all the vinyl haters they are going to do a cd version of this as well (they might as well do that now with the new series on cd don’t they?) First volume arrived today of the new series. Will spin that tomorrow morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
