Teasing the Korean Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 13 minutes ago, JSngry said: It did [Dolphin Dance]. Covered by both Ahmad Jamal & Grover, found in fake books, absorbed into the mainstream via osmosis. Maiden Voyage was my second Herbie Hancock album, Empyrean Isles being the first. I got both circa my junior/senior years of high school. This would have been very early 1980s. I also had The Real Book by this time, and while I was no expert then - nor now, for that matter - my sense was that "Dolphin Dance" was one of Herbie's most well-known tunes, next to "Chameleon" and, a year or two later, "Rockit."

Pim Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 Fascinating record from a Hungarian group recording with John Tchicai. I hear influences by Albert Ayler, Abdullah Ibrahim and Pharoah Sanders. Some free passages, spiritual jazz, free improvisation and compositional music. Pretty adventurous stuff. I’d call this my 2024 discovery for now. Perhaps some prejudice of me but I did not expect a 1983 record from Hungary to sound so good! Maybe they already know it but I am pretty sure this is the league of @mjazzg@Rabshakeh@soulpope and perhaps also @HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my list to try and snag this evening Yeah, it's nice - and very varied stylistically too, something for everyone for the audience who were there. Originally wasn't going to get this one on LP but succumbed. Sonically it isn't audiophile but is very acceptable. I'm not a fan overall of the Yusef Atlantics and this one is very much in his acoustic/non-fusion bag. Lots of solo space for Kenny Barron, not surprisingly.

clifford_thornton Posted April 22 Report Share Posted April 22 yeah, they replaced my Rollins in Holland discs quickly but for the price tag it was kind of ridiculous. Actually, I guess the Ayler set was free of defects & that was one of theirs too. The Lacy-Waldron set has a bizarre title & artwork, think they could've done better on that one...

clifford_thornton Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Soft Machine, Høvikodden 1971 (Cuneiform), LP1 have part of this on the old Reel Recordings CD set; mastering here is a bit less hot it seems, but the sound is really good and open. Music is as great as you'd expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
