At first quick glance, I thought it said corruption, graft, passion.

Sounds exciting! Could make a great movie, like "Sex. Lies and Videotape."

Might have sold more copies if they'd given it either of those titles.

[Leeway]

Curiously, no sex, lies, violence, sex, drugs, corruption, did I say sex? in this album at all But I like it a lot anyway.

Sounds Aspects LP.

[WD45]

Nice session. I found this 10" today for $2.00.

Claude Williamson 'Plays Gershwin' (FreshSound)

Strangely, this nice date - recorded in Barcelona in 1987 and produced by Jordi Pujol - does not seem to have been reissued on CD!

[jeffcrom]

Jimmy Smith - Bucket (BN mono)

[Leeway]

[jeffcrom]

American Music by Bunk Johnson 1945 (Dan). Whenever I visit New Orleans, I look for these Japanese Dan LPs in the American Music series. Many of them have tracks which are not included in the current AM CD reissue series; this one has about half a dozen such cuts.

Ah - great memories of that very band in that very club !

André Hodeir 'American Jazzmen Play Andre Hodeir' (Savoy, mono)

[jeffcrom]

André Hodeir 'American Jazzmen Play Andre Hodeir' (Savoy, mono)

I like that one a lot.

On my turntable:

James Rivers - Ole (J.B.'s). New Orleans soul jazz from the 70's - Rivers is kind of like a hyperactive Hank Crawford. I picked this one up in New Orleans because a very young Carl LeBlanc is on guitar. LeBlanc fascinates me - he has played and recorded with both Sun Ra and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and you can hear him playing with various bands on Frenchmen Street. Unfortunately, he doesn't solo here.

The Complete Sidney Bechet Vol. 5 Plus Ladnier/Mezzrow/Newton (Jazz Tribune), LP 2 (the Panassié sessions)

[Leeway]

Dick Hyman: Kitten on the Keys - The Music of Zez Confrey (RCA)

[paul secor]

Buster Brown: New King of the Blues (Fire)

[jeffcrom]

Dutch Swing College Band - Party Favorites at the Jazz Band Ball (Dutch Philips stereo) Couldn't find a picture of this. It's pretty lightweight, but I had always been impressed with the tracks this excellent European dixieland band recorded with Sidney Bechet, so I picked this up for a few bucks in New Orleans. Not profound, but accomplished.

Bobby Hutcherson - Total Eclipse (BN) A mid-80's "new" Blue Note/Teldec pressing - it sounds really good.

[TWilson]

Jimmy Smith - Plain Talk

[brownie]

The Roscoe Mitchell Art Ensemble 'Congliptious' (Nessa, stereo)

Still gets kicks listening to that old favorite!
