king ubu Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Another one from yesterday's haul: Laurent De Wilde - Odd and Blue (IDA 1989), with Ira Coleman and Jack DeJohnette. Let's see if those "five spots" from Jazz Hot (sticker on the bottom left, mine has that one but not the "choc" sticker on top) were justified. Beginning is fine, but sound is, well, 80s...

hard bop head Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Today's line-up = "Introducing Joe Gordon" 1954 Trip TLP-5535 mono reissue of EmArcy release. One of two dates led by Gordon, excellent early hard bop w/ Charlie Rouse. Only decent sonics from this low-budget reissue. Wilbur Harden- "Gold Coast" Savoy Jazz reissue, rvg. Originally led by Harden, eventually credited to "Trane to capitalize on his name recognition. Very average date but being rvg, the sonics are excellent. Curtis Amy & Paul Bryant- "Meetin' Here" Pacific Jazz PJ-26 1961 mono. Under appreciated Amy, Bryant sounds similar to Freddie Roach, very good solo work from valve-trombonist Roy Brewster. Thick vinyl sounds fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Something a little outside my usual orbit these days. I found the discographical info interesting. It's on "Realm Jazz: Savoy Series" and it was put out by Oriole Records Limited, London. Those are new labels to me. Seems like Oriole was around for a fair while. Realm is new to me. BTW, the record is in mono. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Realm was a CBS label. Had some other reissues in the label - Rex Stewart, Don Redman, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I think this is a pretty interesting band. Pettiford on cello, Mingus on bass, Phil Urso on tenor, Julius Watkins on Frnch Horn, Walter Bishop, piano, Percy Brice (who he?), drums. It's fine if a bit tame considering the calibre of players and the presence of Mingus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Looking for a few smiles tonight, so I listened to "Save The Bones" by Danny Barker. I know that I mentioned this in a post last night, but one of the great mornings of my life was one spent in Danny and Blue Lu's living room on Sere St. in New Orleans. One of the songs he played and sang for my ex-wife and me was "Save the Bones." What a great man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 A. C. Reed and His Spark Plugs - Take These Blues and Shove 'Em! (Ice Cube/Rooster Blues). A very entertaining blues album by the long-suffering Mr. Reed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Sun Ra - Nuits de la Fondation Maeght, Vol. 1 (Recommended). I picked up Recommended's beautifully produced 45 RPM reissue of the original Shandar album about 30 years ago. "The Cosmic Explorer," the synth/organ improvisation that takes up all of side two, is monumental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 The Fabulous Banjo of Danny Barker (Period). A not-particularly-profound late 50's album, with Joe Muranyi, Don Frye, Wellman Braud, and Walter Johnson. Danny's music always makes me feel better.

Music can affect us in a lot of ways but you can't beat "feeling better". Enjoyed your earlier comments on Mr. Barker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
