Stephane Grappelli/Martial Solal: Happy Reunion (Owl)

Listening to this LP, I was reminded of a conversation I had with a musician friend. We were talking about listening to Hank Jones and Benny Carter. My friend had some good advice. He said that listening to those gentlemen's music was different from listening to Monk's music or Bird's music. You won't hear adventure and excitement, but you will hear music that's played perfectly. That's what I heard when I listened to Happy Reunion this afternoon.

FINGERS-REMEMBER.MINGUS.jpg

Fingers Remember Mingus (Spotlite) 1979- odd line up of Michael Garrick, Lol Coxhill, Bruce Turner, Dave Green and Alan Jackson. Setlist also varied with Anthropology rubbing shoulders with Tears Inside and Mood Indigo !!!

Ken Colyer - Club Session With Colyer (London). My affection for British trad trumpeter Ken Colyer is not really rational, especially considering my comments about derivative music elsewhere in the forums today. Part of it has to do with Colyer's interesting repertoire - few, if any, New Orleans bands would have been playing "Chrysanthemum Rag" or "Snag It" in 1956. And Colyer was just so damn good, even if he wasn't that original.

Oh, well - I never claimed to be consistent.
