jeffcrom Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Johnny Hodges - The Eleventh Hour (Verve mono) More "lounge" than jazz, really, with strings arranged by Oliver Nelson and Rabbit mostly just playing the melody. But what a great thing that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 After some Hank Mobley, one of those unpromising-looking 50s/60s Dave Tarras records - Jewish Melodies on Period. This one features an excellent little eight-piece klezmer band, with Tarras' son-in-law Sam Musiker on tenor sax (and probably arrangements).

ajf67 Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Howlin' Wolf: Moanin' in the Moonlight (Chess/P-Vine Japan) What an awesome LP. One of the all-time great blues albums. Gene Shaw 'Carnival Sketches' (Argo, mono, sand-colored label) This is one of the reasons I love this thread. I haven't listened to this one in a long time, and now I'm reminded to get it out. I got it because a friend pointed this out at a garage sale a long time ago and said I should buy it ($2). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porcy62 Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Horace Silver - Song For My Father - MusicMatter 45rpm reissue. Whatever one thinks about the whole vinyl reissue's thing, this is by far the best sounding I have, definitely better then my NY stereo, 'ear' original pressing, that I payed more then 50 bucks some years ago. BTW I'll keep both so don't ask... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazztrain Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 If you like those, you might look for the two 2-CD sets on Tampa Red that Bluebird issued many years ago in a blues reissue series that they gave up on far too soon. I only wish that Tampa Red would have left the kazoo at home. There's a great Tommy McClennan 2-cd set in that series as well.

BTW as far I love originals, I hate to admit that a reissue can sound better. Though I'll never admit that a cd could sound better then a vinyl, nor under torture, I can say my name, rank and catalog number, no more, according to the Geneva Convention.

Music Matters 45rpms are banned from my place at the moment though as I have injured a leg and can hardly walk. CDs rule !

rdavenport Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Jimi Hendrix Experience - "Are You Experienced?" This is the original mono album, which I recently inherited. I don't know if it's me or if this copy is shitty (it certainly looks pristine), but it sounds bad. All muffled and distinctly lo-fi in places.
