HutchFan Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 (edited) This LP continues to be in heavy rotation at this listener's house: Lou Donaldson - Cosmos (Blue Note, 1971) George Butler produced this LP, but (aside from the voices) I think it sounds more like soul jazz that Bob Porter was producing for Prestige around that same time. The key sidemen on Cosmos are Porter regulars: Melvin Sparks, Leon Spencer, and Idris Muhammad. That (relatively) stripped-down, not over-produced "Bob Porter-like" soul jazz sound is one of the reasons I've been enjoying this LP so much.

Gheorghe Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 16 hours ago, Pim said: I have heard it somewhere, I remember the title tune is something in the style of Silver´s "The Preacher", but I think this LP was lesser known. From the 50´s I only have "Blowing Sessions" two albums on one double LP, it is the thing with Trane and Mobley, and a Clifford Jordon record with Sun Ra´s saxophonist John Gilmore. I think I also remember or have read, that the "Congregation" is too short for an LP...... 9 hours ago, HutchFan said: This LP continues to be in heavy rotation at this listener's house: Lou Donaldson - Cosmos (Blue Note, 1971) George Butler produced this LP, but (aside from the voices) I think it sounds more like soul jazz that Bob Porter was producing for Prestige around that same time.

Strange thing with Blue Note and with Lou Donaldson .....after 1970. As you know I have been a fan since the 70´s but somehow I never got a real feeling for what BN did in that period. All those records (and it seems they were not so much sold or seeked after in Vienna) somehow were the same, a lot of instruments, and quite thin stuff at least for my ears. I love a lot of BN albums from the earlier decades and we knew LD from his recordings with Monk, Horace Silver and Art Blakey, and his own "Blues Walk" , but I think he was not very much touring in the 70´s , the first time I heard him live was in the 80´s and that was mighty fine..... My impression was, that other labels had more interesting 70´s years jazz, like CBS, Atlantic or what you call them. If BN wanted to sell us electric jazz, rock jazz, I think CBS with electric Miles was much better on that, and others like Headhunters or RTF were much better and more interesting than those many "one kind of style 70´s BN recordings". Once I did a mistake and bought a LD BN album from 1974 and after listening one side it landed in the garbage can, the only time I did something like that with a record.....

adh1907 Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Barney Wilen - Jazz sur Seine, Sam records reissue. Sounds great. Wilen has such a fluent style. Each solo seems as though it was written. Stanley Turrentine has a similar thing going on. Never heard Milt Jackson play so much piano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have both for a very long time Interesting label. Appears to have been run from a house on a 60s estate in the Edinburgh suburbs. I think the releases date from the late 70s if Discogs is correct.

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 Edited February 22 by Pim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
