Chuck Nessa Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Lou Donaldson - Midnight Sun (BN Classic "rainbow" series). My copy has some sort of weird distortion in the right channel on parts of "Candy," the first track on side one. Anybody else encounter this, or is it just my copy? Same thing with my copy. Has this ever been on cd on its own? To check the distortion I popped a cdr I'd made from my copy into the computer and the song titles came up.

Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Still a spine-tingler. Oh yeah. Can only second those feelings. Marion had such great musical sensibility. I would love to see him get a big box Mosaic. Edited August 20, 2011 by Leeway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I had the pleasure of being able to spend some time with Virginia Genta saxophonist,and David Vanzan, drummer, also known as the Jooklo Duo, during their recent tour in the U.S. They are the nicest people you could meet. Watching petite Ms. Genta completely dominate a massive tenor sax is a thing of pleasure. They can really turn up the heat. LIVE IN LISBON, is a duo recording of Genta with free jazz-rock drummer Chris Corsano, recorded on a rooftop in Lisbon. Occasionally you can hear some birds chiming in. The sonics are not band considering the rooftop location. Genta and Corsano are FIERY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 AMALGAM: PRAYER FOR PEACE. 1969. No Business Reissue. Trevor Watts, Jeff Clyne, John Stevens, Barry Guy. Watts blows me away like he always does. Saw him touring this year with Veryan Weston. Both wonderful people. And they played great. Watts talked about Derek Bailey and John Stevens. Those guys were the fountainhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Yeah, cool that they reissued that record. I have the original and it's been among my top spins for ages. Have to say I like the original cover better: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say I like the original cover better: I do too. I like the 60's psychedelic style. You used to see that on all the concert posters of the time. I have an original of the Amalgam INNOVATION album. I really like that one, but the cover is not nearly as cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Listened to this earlier today. A reissue of Grachan Moncur III''s NEW AFRICA. I suspect there is a squirrelly history behind this Picc-A-Dilly LP. Great line-up: Grachan Moncur III (tb), Roscoe Mitchell (as, fl, piccolo), Dave Burrell (p), Alan Silva (b), Andrew Cyrille (d). I think the cover might be a bit misdirected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recordings produced great music that never got adequate releases. And since the original tapes have disappeared we have to contend with whatever came out!

Now spinning: Paul Gonsalves 'Gettin' Together' (Jazzland/Carrère France) I'm not totally sure that it is a needle drop, although it might well be. I checked Discogs, which lists a handful of title on the Picc-A-dilly label. One of them is Dave Burrell's AFTER LOVE, which first came out on the French America label. Perhaps Picc-A-dilly had some arrangements with French music producers to issue these albums. That said, the fact that the title of the Moncur album was changed, and, maybe more revealingly, none of the musicians, except Moncur, were listed on the reissue, makes one think there was something dodgy about the enterprise. They may have wanted to avoid paying royalties, for one thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 prompted by Leeway's Grachan Moncur (my understanding, probably incorrect, is that royalty payments weren't a great concern of original BYG let alone any dodgy reissues/licensing) he's so 'on it' on this. as are all the players. great session Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall reading an interview with Sunny Murray where he complained bitterly about how badly he was ripped off by BYG and other European producers on royalties and payments (although there might be some other sides to that story). He was certainly not the only one. Still, these labels had to cover their tracks, and not be too blatant--- Why invite trouble?

Leeway Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 One more Marion Brown album. With heavy storm clouds moving into my location, I thought SWEET EARTH FLYING would be appropriate. The title is from the Jean Toomer poem: Thunder blossoms gorgeously above our heads Great, hollow, bell-like flowers Rumbling in the wind, Stretching clappers to strike our ears... Dripping rain like golden honey, And the SWEET EARTH FLYING from the thunder. Something I noticed looking at the ABC Impulse gatefold jacket is that Muhal Richard Abrams name on the outside sleeve is spelled Muhal Richard Abrahams; the error is compounded on the inner sleeve where it is spelled Muhal Richard Abrahms!

Leeway Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 A lot of genius in the recording studio at one time! I still have no idea of the title, not the explanation (if that it what it is) on the back cover But the music speaks for itself. Black Saint LP 1977.
