Ace European pressing. A footnote on the jacket states 'master tape lost, dubbed from lp'. Is this the case fro subsequent issues?

The_Hour_Glass_Power_of_Love.jpg

Hourglass - Power of Love (Liberty) The second, and better, album by the group Duane and Gregg Allman led before the formation of Allman Brothers Band. It still ain't great, but I give it a spin every once in a while. The searing "B.B. King Medley" released on The Duane Allman Anthology shows what this band was capable of when out of the clutches of Liberty's producers.

Kid Ory - This Kid's the Greatest! (Good Time Jazz mono). This collection of Ory's mid-50's recordings was one of the albums my sweet, encouraging mom brought home for me when I started to get interested in jazz, so it's one of the first 20 jazz albums I owned. I liked it then, and I still do. The personnel changes a lot from session to session - New Orleanians are replaced by West Coast dixielanders, Don Ewell and R & B great Lloyd Glenn alternate on piano, and Barney Kessel even takes a turn on rhythm guitar. But there is an amazing consistency of sound and approach. Listening now, I'm struck, as I was back in 1974, with the power of Ory's trombone.

My favorite of the four clarinetists who appear on this album is Pud Brown, a West Coaster who ended up in New Orleans, and even had a local hit with "Palm Court Strut" at the turn of the 1990's. His low-register sound is just delicious, and he plays with a lot of imagination.

The Three Sounds - It Just Got to Be (BN New York mono). I know that Dan Gould will forgive me - I picked this up today, and it's my first 3 Sounds album, except for a couple accompanying saxophonists.

Henry 'Red' Allen 'Mr. Allen' (Prestige/Swingville, mono, red label)

Very nice album which still carries a $14,00 price tag from NYK's Academy Store.

Worth every cent (and much more)!

Side A has a Prestige/Swingville label, side B has a Prestige/Bluesvile label)!
