robert h. Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 Personally I have been listening most to the 2 amazing reissues of Coltrane Live At The Village Vanguard and Ballads on ORG 45 rpm. Just killer sonically, the best these could ever sound. Also been spinning the 45rpm reissue of Giant Steps which is good, but limited by the source and the hard l/r panning where Coltrane is completely on the left. Picked up the Speakers Corner reissue of Ben Webster and Associates which is excellent. Listened to Sonny Fortune's Awakening last weekend which is a great, great modern record. Also took a spin on Herbie Mann Hold On I'm Coming on vinyl, a great group with Fathead. Had a nice run with Coltrane's Expression on Japanese vinyl, a green label pressing that is very, very good. Next up I have a few King Blue Notes waiting for a spin and some Billy Harper Baystates. Quote

That is a very odd record, but I like it okay. Glad it exists. I'm certainly going to give it another shot before I form an opinion, since I've always been glad that Tyrone Washington exists. Quote
