clifford_thornton Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 LEO CUYPERS This record was made just after Leo had left the Willem Breuker Kollektief. The liner notes on the cover by Wim Van Eyle, one of the compilers of the Dutch Jazz and Blues Discography, tells extensively about the recording session, organized on the 20th of July 1981 in the VARA Studio number 2 in Hilversum, the "radio" city in the center of The Netherlands. This Trio recording is rather unique, as Leo loves to play solo piano - een tweevingerige pianist ( = a two-finger piano player) critics said, but Wim Van Eyle refutes this in the first paragraph: Zijn solo's in stukken als Newborn en Bim Bam Beieren zijn een smak techniek, waarmee voornoemde kritici wel een heel eind het bos in gestuurd worden. (= His solo's on the piano in pieces like Newborn and Bim Bam Beieren show a remarkable technique which learns that his critics were wrong ). Leo, we gaan spelen als een echt jazztrio en we maken een Flanagan-achtige LP van. (= Leo, Let's play like a real jazz-trio and make a Flanagan-like album ), Han Bennink must have said. Han Bennink is nowadays still active as an artist and percusssionist in contemporaty music. Leo Cuypers: A two-finger piano player? Keep swinging Durium I like Cuypers a lot but don't have this trio record. I will look for it! Some great ones also on BVHaast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Some late forties/early fifties R&B Billy Wright, Prince of the Blues - Stacked deck - Route 66 (mostly Savoy recordings - Wright was a big Atlanta name and an influence on Little Richard & James Brown) Earl Bostic - & his alto sax no 2 - King (Parlophone UK 10") (What an alumni there is on this disc! Benny Golson, Blue Mitchell, Tommy & Stanley Turrentine, George Tucker, Keter Betts, Teddy Charles, Jimmy Shirley and the great Count Hastings!) Frank "Floorshow" Culley - Rock and roll - Atlantic (Official) (Great compilation of all his Atlantic sides by probably the most underrated honker of them all. With Van "Piano Man" Walls to make it even better!) next Preston Love - Strictly cash - Saxophonograph (Early recordings mostly done in association with Johnny Otis - including some Hampton Hawes!)

Teasing the Korean Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Just picked up some Guido Crepax books. What else could I possibly listen to except: Piero Umiliani - To-Day's Sound (Easy Tempo reissue). The opening cut is the theme from "Babayaga" with the Guido Crepax images.

clifford_thornton Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Paul Bley Quintet - Barrage - (ESP red label mono) After reviewing the new CD reissue, I think this is one of those rare occasions that the ESP vinyl sounds a hell of a lot better - more present & well balanced - than the digital version.
