jeffcrom Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 OTB: Live at Mt. Fuji (Blue Note). I'd never paid any attention to this band, but this thread made me want to check out this album. The band is good, but Kenny Garrett is on another level. I don't want to overstate my case, but the contrast between the rest of the band and Garrett illustrates the difference between professionalism and inspiration. Then: Evan Parker: Live at the Finger Palace (The Beak Doctor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Pierre Barouh's label, most sessions produced by Daniel Vallancien (studios also hosted recording sessions for BYG, probably others). I bet brownie could chime in with more info. I've got some of the easier-to-find Saravah LPs - Fontaine, Steve Lacy, Cohelmec, Jacques Higelin, plus the Trio Camera reissue. Lots of nice stuff, ranging from freaky French folk to free jazz. Have yet to score the J-C Capon LP on the label, or the Nana Vasconcelos solo. Akendengue is from Gabon; gorgeous, folky Afro-pop. The Saravah website! A recommended compilation of the label's output: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martini Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Then: Evan Parker: Live at the Finger Palace (The Beak Doctor) I've been searching for this one for some time. I'd like to find a copy under $70, but so far most have been in the $100 range. I have heard it via a blog, and it is a great listen. It will definitely be in my collection some day.

clifford_thornton Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Saravah Samba - I mean, the tune was played by Barouh in "A Man and a Woman," but other than the fact that it was later the name of his label, I know nothing about the reason for the name. Wertman is a "free jazz" bass player - no relation to anything Barouh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Bill Dixon/Aaron Siegel/Ben Hall - Weight/Counterweight. Brokenresearch records beautifully presented and recorded trio session.

Teasing the Korean Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Alice Coltrane/Carlos Santana - Illuminations (Columbia). First time I've ever had a Santana album in the house. Don't tell anyone! EDIT: Side 1 is a lot better than side 2. IMHO.

It seems to be out of print now, but the whole thing is/was on Youtube in numbered segments. Baden Powell is incredible in this film. There is a beautiful scene with shots of the ocean while Powell sings and plays "Yemanja" from "Os Afro Sambas." There is also a picnic/jam session scene in which Maria Bethania is completely baked.

martini Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Mmm... I've been hit and miss on Qbico. Quality of pressings was sometimes dicey and the special editions were almost never worth what he was charging. But he got the music out there. I didn't think Continent was reissued, but I could be wrong. Thanks for the heads up on Continent. I'll look into that LP. I just finished spinning the entirety of the Tchicai/Geerken on Qbico, and the pressing is more of a "miss" than a "hit" (especially my side 4). It is still a good listen, and I'm grateful for the release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
