Frank Rosolino Quintet, Frankly Speaking! (Affinity/Capitol)

With Charlie Mariano, Walter Norris, Max Bennett and Stan Levey in 1955.

Ah, Walter Norris! I haven't played any of his music in a long time. The first thing I ever heard by him was his Live at the Maybeck Recital Hall and I really liked it. I ended up buying several of his albums. He's got an interesting, analytical style to me, though I can't listen to it for long periods.

Kenny Clarke and Francy Boland- Volcano Vol.1 Live at Ronnie's- Polydor UK, great sound and well hard swing set...perhaps my favourite by this outfit

Yes, great double set. Mine's on an MPS twofer from the mid-70s. Have you got hold of those Rearward/Schema Clarke/Boland LPs Clunky? Those are fantastic too.

Not yet, so far I've got Off Limits, Fellini and the two volumes from Ronnie's in original UK vinyl editions, a Verve Elite CD with Getz and Sax No End/All blues on MPS. I had assumed the Rearward/Schema LPs might be a bit dodgy soundwise.?

Yes, and the amazing thing is that he was on piano for Ornette's jazz-history-changing record, Something Else!!!

mg-i think the backings on brasswind are pretty good (george duke? if i remember, etc) but ammons sounds bad. you are right.

cosmos is the lou donaldson album where i think the guys sound like an actualy soul/funk band and not jazz dudes playing funky songs. in this sense, find the backing vocals which i would usually hate, to actually be well integrated. but i feel like the guys (sparks, muhammed, spencer, etc) sounds like a BAND on this one.

np-cannonball adderley: experience in E (this has some good axelrod on it).

just played eddie russ-see the light...AWESOME. eddie russ was like a rich man's lonnie liston smith in terms of electric jazz funk.

how are the sonny stitt/eddie russ sides? looks like there is a comp CD at cdbaby?

more straight awesome eddie russ-mixed bag...mixed bag's first album is it called? on tribe. great stuff. more acoustic.
