Introducing the Afro Blues Quintet Plus One - Mira mono.

Sounds like a Chris Montez album without vocals!

Some of their stuff is a LOT better than that!

Paul Horn--Impressions of Cleopatra (Columbia 2 eye)--A $4 purchase turned out to be an unexpectedly nice recording--with Victor Feldman on piano, Emil Richards on vibes, and Chuck Israels on bass.

What's the music like?

NP: Willow Weep for Me - Wes Montgomery - Verve stereo

You get a picture of Elizabeth Taylor dressed as Cleopatra, on the cover. The full group is Paul Horn (flute and bass flute), Emil Richards (vibes), Victor Feldman (piano), Chuck Israels (bass), Colin Bailey (drums), and Larry Bunker (percussion). All of the music is composed by Alex North for the film Cleopatra, and the themse are quite beautiful. The music is very moody and atmospheric, for the most part, but there are also uptempo/swinging cuts and interludes (Victor Feldman is smoking on his solos). One of the better jazz groups plays movie themes recordings I've heard. I really enjoyed it. There are no notes; it does say copyright 1963.

Duke Ellington - New Orleans Suite

It has been far too long since I've listened to that one (being as I don't have it, for one thing). I can't remember the name of it, but that third track of side one, with that repeated trombone line while Gonsalves solos...... OW!!!!

Anyway, I've been listening to Bill Evans & George Russell's LIVING TIME. MAN, is that one tough piece! Good, but exhausting!

"Portrait of Louis Armstrong"? Were you thinking of Cootie Williams?

First time I've heard it... just picked it up at that Corner Record Shop in GR.

Thanks for sharing your addiction... <_<;)

Drattit!!! Do you know how close I came to buying that when I saw it that night? Ah well, at least I know it's in good hands!

Anyway, I was wrong: it's the fourth track, "Thanks for the Beautiful Land on the Delta," that makes me wanna get up and join the procession!

Next year, I'm setting aside a whole DAY to rummage around in there! :)
