Jazz Kat Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 Gustav Brom Orchestra feat. the inimitable Karel Krautgartner! We should have a thread with album covers with vintage airliners on them. I love the cover to Arthur Fiedler album with the 707 on it. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 Have never seen the cover of that Donaldson 'Cosmos' before. The photograph is very similar in style to the one taken of Lee Morgan and used on the front of the 'Memorial' album. Must have been the same vintage (72/73?) Quote
Jazz Kat Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 What year are we talking? I dont know the album. 737's and 727's weren't around that much yet in the 60's. Quote
couw Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 now it's Krupa/Hampton/Wilson on a Verve reissue of the Clef "Playing some of the selections they played in the Benny Goodman movie" album. Quote

couw Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 maybe you should check the then current Tupolev models as well... Quote
Leeway Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Dave Burns - both Vanguard lps Wagner - Ring Cycle (music for mad artists and dreary winter weather!) Wasn't Wagner's music once described as moments of sublime beauty, interrupted by hours of tedium? B-) Quote
Leeway Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 (edited) Sidney Bechet - BLUES IN THE AIR RCA France, "Horizons du Jazz, No.2" 430 216. Brownie, do you have this one? I actually bought this in Paris. And: Randy Weston, BLUE MOSES. Thankfully, NOT-CTI'd, if you know what I mean. A really fine album. And: Hendrix, Band of Gypsys.

I actually bought this in Paris. Leeway, I have 'Blues In The Air' (two takes) on the French RCA twofer 'The Complete Sidney Bechet', volume 3/4 (1941) from the Black/White Jazz Tribune series. I'm happy with the sound on this. Love the music! Quote

patricia Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 (edited) Feeling traditional this morning, so I'm listening to the 2 record mono set on RCA, "Glenn Miller - A Memorial 1944-1969. It's easy to see why Miller's music not only lives on, but is evolving, as jazz does, thanks to younger players who continually revive and give a modern polish to it. The cover notes were written by Benny Goodman and he gives us a capsule biography of both the man and his contribution to jazz. Very nice. Edited January 28, 2005 by patricia Quote
porcy62 Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Coltrane's AFRICA BRASS, RVG Impulse stereo Quote
Leeway Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Brownie, you're right, of course, that Bechet album has some terrific playing on it. "Sleepy Time Down South" knocked me out. This RCA issue has a nice photo of Bechet on the cover, and is on nice, thick vinyl, with excellent sound. Spinning: Getz with Almeida, on Verve. And: Ella Fitzgerald- SINGS JEROME KERN - Verve Quote
Leeway Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 (edited) Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - LIVE! Everest Records FS332, recorded live at Slug's in New York City in August 1968. Bill Hardman-tpt; Billy Harper-tsx; Julian Priester-tbn; Ronnie Mathews-p; Larry Evans-b Michael Fitzgerald's excellent discog site shows this band toured in 1968 and performed twice at Slug's, and this August performance was issued (originally I would assume) as Trip 5034 (the Everest issue doesn't appear). Recording quality about adequate. This was a pretty powerful lineup (although Priester doesn't really register, perhaps a result of the recording mix), and it is interesting to hear them in live performance. Harper turns in a nice lyrical performance on "Angel Eyes," the rest is the hardest of hard bop. Blakey plays like a force of nature and drives the band. Edited January 27, 2005 by Leeway Quote

Donald Byrd, Bobby Hutcherson, Bobbi Humphrey, Gene Harris, Carmen McRae, Eddie Henderson, John Lee and Gerry Brown (who were they?), Horace Silver, Alphonse Mouzon. They could have / should have called this one "Funk 'N Synth" B-) And: Max Roach and Clifford Brown - DAAHOUD Mainstream Records, 386, mono Edited January 27, 2005 by Leeway Quote
