jeffcrom Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Mundell Lowe All Stars - TV Action Jazz (Camden stereo). This one has been mentioned several times here recently, so I though I'd give it a spin. Donald Byrd sounds really good. And did Eddie Costa ever record a solo on marimba anywhere else? Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Bob Wilber - New Clarinet in Town (Classic Jazz). Looks like this one has been reissued on CD, much to my surprise. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Just found at the local shop the Angel box set of Schnabel playing Beethoven's sonatas, the booklet was missing, but the records were ultra mint and the price excellent, so I had to buy it. Now I am listening to them. The transfert is good, the music is just astounding. People were right, Schanbel is the Thing. I agree. I've had that box since 1968. If you can find the book (it's a great 52 page "tome") you will be happy. I now listen to the music on cd (for convenience) but still pull out the book for reference. Would that be these recordings? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000002S29/ Same recordings, not the same transfers. edit to say I have these in a large (oop) box of cds on Dante.

jeffcrom Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Black California (Savoy) - Right now, the amazing side two, with those Roy Porter big band sides which are so full of youthful energy. Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) Chico Hamilton - The Three Faces of Chico (Warner Brothers mono). Picked this one mostly for the tracks with Eric Dolphy, but it's all pretty good, with the possible exception of Chico's singing. I'm not sure I had ever noticed this: the back cover has a little box with other albums listed, "For your further listening pleasure, may we suggest." Nothing unusual about that, except that of the four albums listed, only one other is a Warner Brothers record, Gongs East by Hamilton. The others are Mulligan's What is There to Say? (Columbia), The Clown by Mingus (Atlantic), and Cross-Country Suite by Buddy DeFranco (Dot). I don't think I've ever seen an album cover which advertises releases on other labels before. Edited because I originally wrote "United Artists" when I meant "Warner Brothers." Edited January 15, 2011 by jeffcrom Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 An absolute gem from the dollar bin: Knocky Parker/Omer Simeon - Parker-Simeon Storyville Creepers (GHB). A well-recorded 1949 concert (although there are some tape dropouts) by pianist Parker, drummer Arthur Herbert, and the great New Orleans clarinetist. Really nice, relaxed New Orleans chamber music. I love this one. Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Hip Linkchain - Change My Blues (Teardrop). Raw Mississippi/Chicago blues. Quote
Leeway Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) Saw Jayne Cortez and the Firespitters at last year's Vision Fest, and it was one of the highlights of the show. I love her fiery rhetoric and poetry. In concert the band stretched out more than it did in this 1980s album, but the music here is tight, funky and commensurate with the spoken words.
