Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Now playing with tubes... I just picked up a Quicksilver GLA EL34 tube amp. Teddy Edwards - The Inimitable Teddy Edwards (Xanadu) Once you get past the wonky piano & bass sound, this is a pretty nice date. Great solo intro to "Stella By Starlight" by Teddy - worth the price of admission alone. Up next: Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - A Night In Tunisia (Blue Note) A blue label Van Gelder pressing. Looking forward to it. Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 And Bobby Timmons on Prestige 7483, blue label, 203 So. Washington: Love Bobby Timmons--don't know that one though (yet) I think I've read somewhere or other that this is a rather hard to find Timmons album. I was hooked right away when I spotted it. It was released on a two-fer CD recently but I don't know o\if that is still available. Now playing with tubes... I just picked up a Quicksilver GLA EL34 tube amp. Teddy Edwards - The Inimitable Teddy Edwards (Xanadu) Once you get past the wonky piano & bass sound, this is a pretty nice date. Great solo intro to "Stella By Starlight" by Teddy - worth the price of admission alone. Up next: Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - A Night In Tunisia (Blue Note) A blue label Van Gelder pressing. Looking forward to it. Kevin Hi Kevin, is this your first move into tubes? I love tubes and vinyl; they sound great together. A natural match. Now listening to: A witty, fun, and respectful mix of ragtime and free jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hi Kevin, is this your first move into tubes? I love tubes and vinyl; they sound great together. A natural match. Yup. I've been toying eith the idea for many years and came very close to buying a Decware Zen Torii, but the price was just a bit too much for my (wife's) budget. I was able to pick up this Quicksilver GLA for $700. The only drwaback was that it arrived (via UPS) looking like it had been run over by the UPS truck that delivered. I had to replace the destroyed fuse holder on the back panel because they sheared it off during the "drop shipping". I am thinking about putting in Psvane 6CA7-T or KT88-T tubes in next. That's one of the nice things about this amp - self biasing. I can drop in a whole bunch of different tubes with no worries, BTW, this LP of "A Night In Tunisia" is awesome!!

Chuck Nessa Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I forgot this was a Nessa LP! Lucky Thompson, Tete Montoliu, Eric Peter, Peer Wyboris (don't know the last two). Nessa n-13: two interesting quotes about that record: "Damn, that's a real bebop rhythm section" - Roscoe Mitchell "Oh yeah, you got the real tapes" - Eli Thompson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I enjoyed the Air Lore album so much I pulled the next Air LP off the shelf. Whaddya know, another Nessa. Then I opened the Board and saw the above posts. Sometimes things just fall into place . Listening to Nessa n-12: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Bill Barron-Ted Curson 'Now Hear This! Audio-Fidelity, stereo) Was just listening to this the other night. Fine one indeed. Chuck said something a while back about the Riker's Island LP being much, much better in mono. Does that hold true for other Audio Fidelity LPs?

paul secor Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 The Alternate Blues (Pablo) After listening to this, I completely understand Jim Sangrey's feelings about Bobby Durham. Too bad he didn't get lost on his way to the studio. A drummerless session would have worked just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clunky Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I thought this dreadfully sacharine when I first got it, but it has some merits and enjoyed playing it late last night . I think it's the synth that troubles me. Prefer Dark Warrior. Khan Jamal - Thinking of you- Storyville Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
