vinyltim Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 I need some Earl King. I would guess that vinyl is tough to find--is there a CD or collection you'd recommend? ...and maybe one day I'll find some Alvin Robinson 45s..... I've got two Alvin Robinsons - Something You Got/Searchin' on Tiger and Let the Good Times Roll/Bottom of My Soul on Blue Cat. "Something You Got" in particular is excellent. I don't have any Earl King CDs - just a handful of singles and a few scattered tracks on CD anthologies, so I'm not the best one to recommend a CD. If you ever go to New Orleans, you should go to Jim Russell's Records on Magazine Street and browse through the hundreds of NOLA singles. Ok, I'll check that out, thanks. Quote
Leeway Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 The Bo' Weavil reissue. Leslie Waldron is listed as playing piano on the album. I can't find out much about her. Seems like she only played on 2 Noah Howard albums, and that's it. Anyone know anything about her? Any connection to Mal Waldron? Quote

clifford_thornton Posted November 12, 2011 Report Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) Question: Is this Alan Shorter album better than any one album his brother Wayne made? no Interesting record, but no from me too. Alan was really interesting but he wasn't trying to do what Wayne was. I love this album, but it's not in the same category as any of the Wayne BNs (or probably any of his recent work, either). As for Leslie Waldron, she (or he) is only on one Noah Howard LP as far as I know. Nobody I've talked to on the "scene" then remembered this person other than, maybe, "the name sounds familiar." Waldron is mentioned (by name) as being a 212 Artists Colony regular in the book accompanying the Aboriginal Music Society set on Eremite. Edited November 12, 2011 by clifford_thornton Quote

I mostly asked the question to raise folks' consciousness (very 60s, lol) on this album. Wayne's JUJU, NIGHT DREAMER and SPEAK NO EVIL are a cut above, I suppose, but I think Alan's album matches up to most of Wayne's other output after that, and most definitely the more recent stuff. Alan's work is tough, muscular, forward-looking, and I really appreciate that. I do appreciate you all's feedback. Listening to: Quote
clifford_thornton Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Alan had a great band (or two) to help him out. Too bad very little of his work after this was as good - Tes Esat, for all Windo's fierce playing, pales in discographical comparison. Edited November 13, 2011 by clifford_thornton Quote

Leeway Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 A nice find at a local sale. Strong, interesting music from Mali, Niger, and Upper Volta. On the Nonesuch Explorer series. Quite good sound. Quote
