What vinyl are you spinning right now??

A.K. Salim 'Flute Suite' (Savoy, mono)

with Joe Wilder, Frank Rehak, Herbie Mann, Frank Wess, etc...

What's this like?

Excellent! Really enjoyed listening to that one. Very nice session with a lot of flutes but also plenty of solo space for Wilder, Rehak, Wess on tenor on a couple of tunes, Mann also on one!

This does not seem to have been reissued (checked the list of reissues on the recent Savoy/Denon thread).

Strangely, the LP also includes one number (Woolafunt's Lament) which was recorded at the 'Jazz For Playboys' album but did not make it there!

Any alto flute? I love alto flute. What's the rhythm section like? Any bongos? Latin percussion goes well with flute.

No alto flute! The accompanying players is the standard Savoy rhythm section - a very good and a no frill one - with Hank Jones, Wendell Marshall, Bobby Donaldson!

I like Bobby Donaldson (he is really in the groove here) but I much prefer Kenny Clarke. Glad Klook came to France at the time but I wish he had stayed for that one!

I've often wondered what sort of a singer he was. What's it like TTK?

Two parts Lonnie Liston Smith (when he was in his earlier introspective cosmic/black consciousness mode, pre-disco); one part Milton Nasciamento, circa "Clube de Esquina." Knowing your taste, I think you'd like him a lot. He sings in a soulful baritone.

I don't think I've heard either of those singers. But I do take your rec. I'll see if I can see something cheap to start off with.

Thanks.

I'm surprised you never heard Lonnie Liston Smith. See if you can find something by him pre-1976.

Milton Nascimento is a Brazilian singer/songwriter who arrived after bossa nova and before tropicalia. He probably made the second-biggest splash in the English-speaking pop scene, next to Gilberto Gil, of that group of musicians.

I know who they are - and I've got LL Smith stuff with Pharoah Sanders. His albums looked like twaddle, so I never bothered to listen to them. Had to focus on the small number of LPs I could actully afford in those days, anyway.
