Leeway Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Quick now, no peeking, but what are the three things (there might be more!) that these two albums have in common? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 I did peek -_- - they have a tuba player (Don Butterfield, Ray Draper), - both were recorded by RVG, - both were supervised by Bob Weinstock. - or ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinlps Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Leeway... Can you tell me a little more about the Melle? I have most of his BN stuff in one form or another, but haven't heard anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 I did peek -_- - they have a tuba player (Don Butterfield, Ray Draper), - both were recorded by RVG, - both were supervised by Bob Weinstock. - or ??? Sharp as ever Brownie . I actually missed the Weinstock connection. But to the three you mention, let me add that both are Pestige dates, and that both have liner notes by Ira Gitler. So, 5 points of similarity (so far). In addition, they were recorded within about 8 months of each other, the Melle in August 1956, and the McLean in Feb. 1957. The odd thing is that I pulled these two LPs off the shelf at random, and only later noticed the connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Leeway... Can you tell me a little more about the Melle? I have most of his BN stuff in one form or another, but haven't heard anything else. These are 2 different sessions, recorded about a week apart, the first session with Art Farmer, the second with Kenny Dorham. I really liked this album the first time I heard it, and like it more with each listen. The arrangements are interesting and swinging. Perhaps oddly, these sessions seemed to me to have a cousinly resemblance to "Birth of the Cool," especially in the way that the larger group instrumentation is used, and the care given to the arrangements. There is fine playing throughout. Joe Cinderella on guitar was new to me, and, to carry the BOC comparison a bit further, I thought he filled the role that Bill Evans did on BOC. He is a fine guitarist. I fyou like Melle, grab this one. I wonder what the fascination was with using tuba players? I thought Ray Draper on the McLean session gave a more virtuous performance that Butterfield on the Melle (but then I don't think the Melle session was trying to showcase virtuosity) But listening to a tuba player solo is akin, in my book, to watching a dog walk on its hind legs-- fascinating but kind of unnatural, and maybe not somethingyou want to see (or hear) too much One last note. Jackie Mclean give a wonderful, vigorous, youthful performance on his album. These early Prestige dates usually don't get much respect, but Jackie's playing here is something to listen to.
