clifford_thornton Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 John Surman - How Many Clouds Can You See? - (Deram orig stereo) It doesn't get much better than "Galata Bridge"... Quote
GA Russell Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 (edited) Richard Groove Holmes--The Groover! (Prestige) kh, I've always enjoyed that one. Not the greatest, but very solid. PS - As I recall, it was issued after Groove left Prestige to rejoin PJ, and it kind of slipped under the radar. Edited April 9, 2007 by GA Russell Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 If someone played me track 1 in a blindfold test, I would swear it was from a 70s Italian soundtrack by Piero Umiliani or Piero Piccione! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Crown Hate Ruin - Until the Eagle Grins (Dischord) Not as good as the singles, but still decent. Ain't no Hoover for that matter, either. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Ain't no Hoover for that matter, either. If it doesn't pick the dirt up off the carpet well enough to satisfy your fastidious taste, perhaps you need more static electricity. There are cloths that will do that for you. I think velvet is supposed to be good. MG Quote

clifford_thornton Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Marion Brown - Porto Novo - (Freedom/King, with the original jacket's photo) Maarten Altena, Han Bennink in 1967... Quote
ep1str0phy Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Porto Novo is rough. I think that was the first Bennink I'd ever heard--and with that nasty reverb, the percussion sounds especially wild. MB is especially unhinged on these sides... interesting that the trio music has been paired with the much quieter, perhaps more sensitive "sound" recordings with Wadada (which is some of the more successful music of its kind from this vintage, I think). Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) Yeah, tell me about it. It's one of my favorite Marion sides, precisely because it's totally unhinged... Bennink is like a scrap-heap being thrown down the White House stairs! Considering that it's the same vintage as both New Acoustic Swing Duo and the Loevendie/Altena/Engels trio Stairs! (Artone [& Bennink got his bag more from Johnny Engels early on, then incorporated Milford]), the shit that MMH unleash is not surprising, and quite welcome. Strange that the CD issue pairs it with only half of the Creative Improvisation Ensemble LP. I especially like the original Porto Novo cover: Edited April 11, 2007 by clifford_thornton Quote
