Sometimes it’s hard for us non-native Englishmen to understand what people are talking about 😉 Now if @HutchFan actually wrote a book about his favorite albums I’d buy it in a heartbeat. For now his blogs will do I still thought a book is a book which i read..... Well about language barrier. Yeah, you said it. I can talk easily with musicians as preparing for a gig and even make the announcements in English and mostly learned English by reading liner notes, and later jazz books. But if it´s about every day´s live I´m lost quickly. It´s all about music that I can exprime in words....... Anyway, I know three European languages, German, one latin-derived language and one uralic language, so now past 60 it may be harder to be sure in non-jazz English 😉 Edited February 23 by Gheorghe Quote

For me Dutch as a third language has completely overwritten the little French I had, at least when it comes to speaking, and I also notice how my English, the second language, is constantly messing up the Dutch - a bit like the Romanian that occasionally shines through in your english... And these phrases where words don't have their usual meaning... Die sind schon ein Brett Quote

I have nothing but admiration for everyone posting in their non-native language. Especially given how accurate so many of you are at it, and even when not the meaning always comes across. Chapeau! I say that with some shame and regret as someone who can only speak one, luckily it's English. Quote

Pim Posted February 24 Report Posted February 24 was long waiting for a decent reissue. Very happy with this one Quote
kh1958 Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 Leonard Feather's Encyclopedia of Jazz in the 1960s, volume 2, Blues Bag (Veejay). Features a 1964 date led by Buddy DeFranco (mostly on bass clarinet), with Victor Feldman, and on three tracks, either Lee Morgan or Freddie Hill, plus Curtis Fuller. Brookmeyer and Guitars (Kimberley) Quote

Nice album that 'Blues Bag' is - almost like a Jazz Messengers album at times, being powered by Blakey. I have the UK vinyl release on the 'Joy' label. Edited February 25 by sidewinder Quote
sidewinder Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 (edited) Amancio D'Silva 'Reflections' (UK Columbia, stereo). Basically an easy listening album, although a good one plus Amancio's playing is great, of course. Reverse of the sleeve says 'File under Jazz: Avante Garde' 🤔 Also to be reissued for the first time by Decca as part of the forthcoming RSD. Looking forward to reading the new sleeve notes.

I have a copy of this which looks shiny and new but unfortunately plays with a lot of crackle, even after cleaning. Annoying. I haven’t played it for a while but remember being disappointed after Integration and Hum Dono etc. inspired by your post, I will replay and reconsider! Quote

Crackle does seem to be an issue with this one - my copy looks spotless and plays pretty well but there is some crackle, even after being cleaned on the VPI. Although largely MOR, there are a couple of tracks which for me are 'ringers' and (not coincidentally I think) were arranged by Stan Tracey. The David Mack and Leon Young-arranged tracks are more soporific. Edited February 26 by sidewinder Quote
GA Russell Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 On 4/17/2007 at 10:20 AM, The Magnificent Goldberg said: Yes - Just Sunshine was the label for which Stuff recorded in the late seventies; a WB subsidiary. My guess is that this is the album originally issued on Transatlantic called "Red hot from Alex" - it contains "Back at the Chicken Shack" and "Haitian fight song", as far as I can remember. MG I stumbled onto this album over the weekend on YouTube Music. It is listed there as Red Hot from Alex. Quote
