jeffcrom Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Whenever my wife is out of town for a few days, there is always one night when I drag out the boxes of 45s. I love the rituals of riffling through the boxes, picking the records, and even getting up every three minutes to turn the record over. I think the jazz portion of the evening just ended; I played: Jack Jenney (Columbia). A four-record box by the great swing trombonist/bandleader. This was also released on 10" LP. Bob Wilber - Petite Fleur/Atlas #1 (Cub). An obscure 1958 release. Hank Marr - Easy Talk/I Remember New York (Federal). 1963, with Rusty Bryant. I wish The Magnificent Goldberg was here to enjoy this one, as well as the next few. Bunky Green - Sweet Inspiration/By the Time I Get to Phoenix (Met). A very obscure Paul Serrano production, not listed in any discography that I've seen. Leo Parker - Low Brown/Parker's Pals (Blue Note) Freddie Roach - I Know/Googa Mooga (Blue Note) On to blues and R & B! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 The blues portion of the evening: Jimmy Reed - I Told You Baby/Odds and Ends (Vee-Jay) Willie Cobbs - You Don't Love Me/You're So Hard to Please (Vee-Jay) George "Harmonica" Smith (as George Allen) - Sometimes You Win When You Lose/Come On Home (Sotoplay) Robert Curtis Smith - I Believe We Love Each Other/Don't Drive Me Away (Arhoolie) Eddie Clearwater - Lonely Nights/True Love (Cleartone) Elmore James - Dust My Broom/Everyday I Have the Blues (Enjoy) Jessie Mae Hemphill - Jessie's Boogie/Standing In the Doorway Crying (High Water) The Hollywood All Stars - Long Way From Home/Mary Joe (High Water) Junior Kimbrough - Keep Your Hand Off Her/I Feel Good, Little Girl (High Water) R. L. Burnside - Bad Luck City/Jumper Hangin Out On the Line (High Water) Ranie Burnette - Coal Black Mattie/Hungry Spell (High Water) I have the complete run of High Water 45's.

And the Leo Parker album your single comes off (no doubt you do, too). Did you know that 'Googa mooga' is a rip off? It was actually written by Lou Bennett and recorded by him on the Dawn label (only a 45) in - oh, just looking for it to find out when, I see I've forgotten to transfer a number of old 45s to my new computer - anyway, it was about '56 or '57, I think. Freddie put himself down as the composer. The Bunky Green material looks interesting. Not the usual sort of thing he did. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Jefferson Airplane, After Bathing at Baxter's. First vinyl played in my living room in a long time: Sounds really good. Cheap Sony turntable right now (Rega RP3 on the way) into a PS Audio GCPH, then tube preamp, tube amp. Lon, say it isn't so! If you're looking at vinyl again, digital must be dying. :lol: He's just run out of things to buy. I know you like to pick on me, but that's just not true, I'm still buying plenty of cds.

If you're looking at vinyl again, digital must be dying. :lol: He's just run out of things to buy. That is somewhat my reason for getting back into vinyl. I found that I hadn't bought any CDs for months and one day I was in Stereo Jacks and saw some Van Gelder Blue Note vinyl in the LP bin so I figured I'd give it a try. Yes, it is fun. However, all the reasons I left vinyl in the old days are still there. The mint LPs that play like shit. The crappy sound on some pressings (unrelated to the vinyl itself). The scratched "new" records. The having to get up every 20 minutes to flip the record. Having to figure out which pressing is the best (and then finding a clean copy). I am having fun, but this feeling may not last forever. Little of that stuff bothered me before, and so far isn't bothering me now. . .

Clunky Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Jefferson Airplane, After Bathing at Baxter's. How's this one, I love Crown of Creation and the UK version of Surrealistic Pillow slightly less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Well, it's psychedelic and slightly silly. I like it but I've liked it since it was a new record. . . .It's more like Crown than Pillow. (I like them in recorded order actually, Pillow then this one and then Crown, though all their albums hae some great qualities in my opinion.My Rega RP3 with the Elys2 cartridge and the TT PSU power supply arrived and is set up. And . . . wow. Just wow. I made a good choice. Great sound in conjunction with the PS Audio GCPH. Right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxter's is my favorite; I think it's the most stretched-out of their early albums. I also like Volunteers a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Dexter Gordon - The Jumpin' Blues. Nice green label Van Gelder pressing. Not the greatest recording quality but Wynton Kelly, in his usual rollicking manner, makes it a very worthwhile $6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 That's a good session. Now Pretty clean vinyl copy. But I think the cd sounds a bit better. Surprised me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 That's a good session. Now Pretty clean vinyl copy. But I think the cd sounds a bit better. Surprised me. This is one where I'm glad there's two sides, because listening to Side One only of the LP is just right for me. The CD as a whole tends to bog down later on, imo, so I just skip Side Two.

It's the only one of Ree's early albums I decided not to bother with. I played it plenty when I was in a record shop in '69 and it never got to me.
