If I had ever noticed that "Forgotten Songs" is the same tune as "What Is the Name of That Song?" from Of Human Feelings, I had forgotten.

Leeway Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Quintessential Cecil Taylor. Fantastic. With Jimmy Lyons and Andrew Cyrille. I haven't heard this one, must check this out. It's a double LP of a live performance in Japan. The record was issued in Japan. It's really good. Sonics are fine. A bit hard to find at the right price. Usually on EBAY for around $50. I finally got mine for $30, which I was happy with, as it was a US seller, so did not have to pay international shipping. You might do better if you hunt about. Worth it . The group is "all-in" on this one; very intense performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" That's odd. Ornette has a co-producer credit on the Flying Dutchman LP. Perhaps the reference is to the RCA issue a couple of years later? Listening to: Three Dolphy compositions and three by Lake on this 1980 Black Saint album, which is very good. I like Lake pre-1980 or so, but his later stuff is hit or miss for me. I'm still trying to get a perspective on his work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Flying Dutchman LP and didn't know there was an RCA issue. However, the recording listed in the Body Meta booklet as unauthorized is the Flying Dutchman. I've been checking around and have found nothing to suggest that the record was issued without authorization. I did find a Billboard article from that time that identified Ornette as a Flying Dutchman artist, so things would appear to be copacetic at the time the album was released. Maybe a mistaken notation in the Body Meta listing, or a falling out afterwards. The Body Meta album is from 1978, so there might have been some hard-feelings by then as Flying Dutchman was on its way out or gone. Wikipedia says: "It was later distributed by RCA Records, which took over the label in 1976." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hard bop head Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Joe Gordon "Lookin' Good" OJC-174. Excellent playing by all, Gordon never got his due, tragedy intervened. Altoist Jimmy Woods is very obscure but quite creative. Most earlier OJC's sound as least as good as originals,IMHO. Herbie Hancock "Takin' Off", BST-84109, New York,USA. A neighbor asked me what I would recommend to a jazz novice, I played this. He asked to hear "Watermelon Man" again, he thought it was awesome, it is.

jeffcrom Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Kid Howard - Sam Morgan Re-Visited (sic) (Jazzology). Kid Howard and an eight-piece band (with two trumpets and two reeds) from the early 1960's cover half a dozen of Sam Morgan's old tunes. Two musicians (Jim Robinson and Andrew Morgan) who were on the original Morgan recordings are on hand, as are several who played with Morgan, but weren't on the 1920's records. Net result: these are some of the hottest, most intense New Orleans recordings I've ever heard; Captain John Handy's contributions are equal to his best work. The session wasn't long enough for a 12" LP, so they're augmented by four tracks by Kid Thomas and his Algiers Stompers. And this record means a lot to me personally; I bought it at Preservation Hall on my very first visit to New Orleans. The Kid Howard/Sam Morgan session is now available on an American Music CD, for those who are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Beat Steve Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Except mine's the London Atlantic mono The lonely woman on the Atlantic/London cover was top model Sondra Peterson . Saw her a number of times when she was French jazz radio broadcaster (and director of Jazz Magazine) Daniel Filipacchi's companion. Filipacchi later headed Hachette Publications in France and the USA. Always wondered who was on the cover. Amazing what one can learn here. Ha, for a second I thought Wanda Jackson had made it onto a MJQ cover! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
