Leeway Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 A terrific date. Mal gets the cover to himself, but Steve Lacy and crew are in high gear. The drummer on this gig is Noel McGhie. Played with Waldron, Noah Howard, Clifford Thornton. Apparently still active. Has a 2010 album out with Francois Tusques. Really did not know much about him until I looked him up, although I know I've heard him on the Thornton and Howard gigs. He works well with Lacy and company.

Leeway Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Woody Shaw bandmate and protege, Carter Jefferson. The album shows the Shavian influence, especially in the harder-charging pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Dolphy always seems to be the hippest guy in the room. He is terrific on "Round Midnight." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Jelly Roll Morton: The Gennett Piano Solos 1923-24 (Swaggie) Does anyone here have an opinion on how the Retrieval CD compares to the Swaggie LP? John R.T. Davies remastered the Swaggie and I believe he did the Retrieval. Wondering how he used filtering on the CD. I'd stick with the LP but the CD has 6 extra tracks. Did a search here but couldn't find anything close to definitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 The cd is a reissue of an lp on Fountain. I'm sure the transfers are the same. Four of the extra tracks are from Brunswick/Vocalion. Not sure which other tracks are missing on your lp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked a discography and I'm missing eight early solo tracks recorded for labels other than Gennett. Probably worth it to pick up the Retrieval CD for those.

Leeway Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Q. Where did the name Odwalla come from? A. In a musical piece titled Illistrum by the jazz group Art Ensemble of Chicago, Odwalla is a mythical leader who guides the "people of the sun" out of the "gray haze."

BillF Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hank Mobley 'The Turnaround!' (BN/King) Lovely! At one time the CD held my record for overpayment - £21 at HMV!

colinmce Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Vienna Art Orchestra - From No Time to Ragtime (Hat Hut, 1983) The whole album is a marvel, but the admission is most surely paid by the Braxton piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Those were the days" isn't always the watchword where record buying is concerned. £21 for a CD !! No wonder the whole kaboosh fell apart. Come to think of it, I can remember the time when most CDs here were £16-17 or thereabouts and that was for non-imports too. If that is the first Blue Note 'Turnaround' CD reissue I think I paid about $12 Cdn plus tax for it at Sam The Record Man ie. about $15. £7-8 at the time, a veritable bargain !
