Leeway Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) Excellent Sam Rivers album, PARAGON, on the FLUID label, with Holland and Altschul. Edited December 30, 2011 by Leeway Quote
kh1958 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Charles Mingus--A Modern Jazz Symposium of Music and Poetry (Bethleham). 1957 Mingus is just incredible--the base group of Mingus, Richmond, Jimmy Knepper, and Shafi Hadi is one of my favorites. Charles Mingus--Wonderland (United Artists, disembodied Mingus head pressing). I noticed that there is a an ear or P in the inner groove, just like a Blue Note pressing. Quote
Leeway Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Sam Rivers in live trio performances from the early 1970s. Needless to say, terrific music. Quote

sidewinder Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Gordon Beck Plus Two 'Dr Doolittle Loves Jazz' (Major Minor, mono). This was producer Ray Horrick's old copy. Nice that he did the sleeve notes too. Also a Michael Garrick obscurity from 1965. 'Anthem' (UK Argo EP, mono) And a nice 1955 EP from Joe Harriott. 'Joe Harriott Quartet' (UK Columbia EP, mono) Quote
Clunky Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Plucked at random from the Rs, good session Quote

Leeway Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 TARFALA TRIO: SYZYGY. Gustafsson, Guy, Strid. Delicacy and power. Gustafsson really is on form here. Double LP (plus 7" vinyl) on No Business. Quote

For my part, I find Mats stuff to be somewhat variable. I prefer him in situations like The Thing and Tarfala, but I've not been won over by his experiments in electronics. I appreciate that he wants to expand his palette, but i don't think he touches on his strengths in that kind of music. Just my taste perhaps. Quote

paul secor Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Never saw that cover for Tijuana Moods. Quote
Leeway Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Never saw that cover for Tijuana Moods. I know! I had a heck of a time finding an illustration. Almost all list the one with the lovely senorita on it. I didn't even find it listed in Discogs. The album number is RCA APL1-0939. Jacket states "Formerly LSP 2533." The LP has an RCA Victor tan label. Edited December 30, 2011 by Leeway Quote
Clunky Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Particularly like Fresh Garbage by Spirit and Time of the season - The Zombies but it;s a pretty decent compilation from CBS 1968 followed by preferring the latter. I played both of these last night and found them both to be excellent, hard to choose Edited December 30, 2011 by Clunky Quote
Leeway Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Think boats blasting foghorns in a synthetic fog. Yes, I liked it. SMJZ LP. Quote
Leeway Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Best thing about this Kenny Wheeler album on ECM is that Evan Parker is on it, and when he gets a chance to really play, he blows that whole gauzy, vaporous ECM sound right out the door. Quote

I was equally impressed by EP's contribution. I've seen him play several times with Wheeler's ensembles and he invariably adds a contrasting 'edge' to proceedings - not that KW's anything other than mighty fine without him Quote
