six string Posted June 2, 2008 Report Posted June 2, 2008 Rod Stewart's Never a Dull Moment - Mercury original In memory of drummer Micky Waller who stepped on a rainbow on May 6, 2008. I've been listening to several Rod albums this weekend to listen to his fine drumming. I should probably put on some Jeff Beck next. No ones home to tell me to turn it down. R.I.P. At the end of,"You Wear It Well" it sounds like he skips or misses a beat but somehow it just works. Ian McLagan is all over those early Rod albums as well. What a great backing band. I know that part well that you speak of. It's like a drummer's hickup or something like that. I only have time for those first four solo albums of Mr. Stewart but most of them featured Micky Waller amongst other fine musicians and they are very good for what they are (non jazz). Waller wasn't a great drummer maybe, but I liked his big sound. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 Didn't remember that was a Barnaby. Old age I guess. Quote

Big Al Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 Willy and the Poor Boys by CCR. It actually belongs to my dad, who bought it while mom was still pregnant with me! I'm proud to say I've loved listening to this record since the day I was born; however, I'm also ashamed of the abuse I gave it during my toddler years when I thought that anything that spun was a toy. Ah well, the crackles and pops bring back tons of happy childhood memories. Can't ask for much more than that! Plus, I love watching that blue Fantasy label spin around. Which is why I am now listening to my mid-60's pressing of Cal Tjader's LATIN CONCERT. Some records are fun just to watch the label spin! Quote
sidewinder Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 Clarke Boland Sextett 'Music For The Small Hours' (Rearward/Schema 180g reissue). Wow ! Great sound on this pressing, even by Rearward standards. Next up: Valdambrini/Piana Quintet 'Afrodite' (Rearward/Schema) Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Various Artists: Jazz in Transition (Transition/King Japan) Think I got $1500 for my original to finance (in part) the Art Ensemble box. Quote
paul secor Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Various Artists: Jazz in Transition (Transition/King Japan) Think I got $1500 for my original to finance (in part) the Art Ensemble box. Guess they were paying for rarity. The Cecil cut is wonderful, but nothing else on there comes close to that. Glad you got the $, though. You, the Art Ensemble, and all us us who bought the box benefited. Quote

BillF Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Newport Rebels (Candid/Barnaby) A record with various delights; e.g. some of the best Roy Eldridge I've heard. Quote

Chalupa Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Melis, Marcello New Village On The Left (Black Saint) That one's an overlooked gem - at least imo. Oh I agree. I really like the vocals. They remind me of Tuvan throat singers. Quote
