kh1958 Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Duke Ellington, Earl Hines, Billy Taylor, Mary Lou Williams, Charles Bell, Willie the Lion Smith--The Jazz Piano--(RCA)--It says copyright 1966, and no one in 42 years cared to even open the record--but I sure enjoyed listening to it for the first time.

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 McCoy Tyner - The Real McCoy - Blue Note (stereo) McCoy's late 60's stuff has such an irresistible TV jazz sound. And that's a supreme compliment, BTW. It makes me wish he would have given up any artistic pretensions and just scored episodes of Columbo. Yeah! MG Quote

Does it have 'vangelder' on dead wax? I am asking it because my wife's Liberty copy doesn't. Edited April 25, 2008 by porcy62 Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 I'll check when I get home. I doubt it, though, being that I paid $3 for it. Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) Dominic Frontiere - Love Eyes - Columbia 6 eye (mono) A concept album from the space-age bachelor pad era, portraying the many moods of love. Frontiere is best known for scoring the first season of "The Outer Limits," considered to be one of the most uncompromisingly original TV shows during its first incarnation.

porcy62 Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 Don Cherry - Complete Communion - from Mosaic box set. Maybe I am getting too old for such stuff. Why do you say that? I noted that I listen to less and less 'avantgarde' and 'free jazz' in these days. It's getting more and more difficult for me to follow the lines of the musicians, at some point I loose the road and I find myself in a unpleasant and unknown sound mess. Maybe I am only distracted by my own thoughts and I follow them, instead of music. It could be a temporary lapse in concentration about music in general, it will pass, I hope. Quote

Surprised you find Complete Communion particularly difficult. I've been listening to jazz for over fifty years and am frankly most at home in the era of Pres and Bird, but the swing and emotional intensity of CC just carries me along. Now, if you said you found Cecil Taylor or Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz hard to listen to, I'd be less surprised! Edited April 26, 2008 by BillF Quote

I spoke out because I was listening to it. In these days I wouldn't dare to spin a late Trane or Cecil Taylor record. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) Les Baxter - Que Mango - Alshire (stereo) Great 1970 session done under the 101 Strings name. This album just exudes early 70s high life decadence. Edited April 26, 2008 by Teasing the Korean Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 In these days I wouldn't dare to spin a late Trane or Cecil Taylor record. One drawback of becoming an adult is that I have much less time for dedicated listening. Music is usually playing while I'm doing other things. I find that it is very difficult (generally) to have out/free stuff on in the background if I'm not completely focused. If I can close my eyes and give it my undivided, I really like it, but I just don't have the time to do so. Quote
