Teasing the Korean Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Steve Hoffman recommended the mono. I'm a monophile, but his endorsement is enough to make me want to seek out a stereo copy. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Machito - With Flute to Boot - Roulette (mono) Flute and arrangements by Herbie Mann. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Dimitri Tiomkin - Rhapsody of Steel - US Steel Records and Tapes (mono). Soundtrack for an industrial film with some nice orchestral happy housewife music and and a touch of futuristic outer space exotica. I live for records like this. Quote

Big Al Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Randy Weston - Blue Moses - CTI (Pye UK edition) I'm jealous!!! Ah well, I'm listening to McCoy Tyner's TRIDENT. All is good! Quote
Jazzjet Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 In the process of digitising my precious vinyl. Just got to 'Hill Country Suite' by Bobby Jones on the Enja label. An overlooked album ( and artist for that matter ) in my view with great support from George Mraz ( bass ) and Freddie Waits (drums ). Quote

stuartjewkes Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Listened to African Horns featuring Abdullah Ibrahim, Basil Coetzee, Kippie Moeketsi and more this morning. Quite jolly in places but a bit squashed sounding. I'm not sure what to think of 'African' jazz, everything I've heard so far, including a live Hugh Masekela (sp), has been very lightweight and sounds tailored for easy listening and toe tapping. Has it's place I'm sure, and this record was nice enough, but I don't think it'll get many repeat plays. Quote

Some "toe-tapping" stuff; some serious, highly charged and interesting playing. MG Quote
