robertoart Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 So could he .... er... well. That's Grant Green - Shades of Green, in case the pic vanishes Illinois Jacquet - Jacquet's got it - Atlantic David Newman - COncrete jungle - Prestige now Jimmy McGriff - Sky walk - Milestone (mine ain't got a cut corner, cos I got it the day it came out - I'm a fan, see?) MG How did you find out what was going to be released and when, back then. Did you have to rely on relationships with record store owners? And yes, Grant would have been great on CTI. Especially early. I read that because CTI didn't have the funds at first for the big productions, they recorded their initial signings in traditional settings, so we got Benson's Beyond The Blue Horizon and Stanley Turrentine's Sugar etc. Two of the great LP's of their careers.

sidewinder Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) God, did early digital recordings sound like shit. Not that this is particularly good music, but still... Never thought I'd see Patsy Kensit on this board ! She was fit back then though.. If I remember right, this film co-incided with an absolute flood of French DMM Blue Notes, so that we all thought we'd gone to heaven.

jazzbo Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I had sold a lot of my Miles lps in the 'nineties. Glad I didn't sell this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I've always loved this album,and haven't heard it in ages, but I was not prepared for the slamming sound quality that came pouring out of my speakers. This is one of the best sounding "non-acoustic" lps in my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) The Beatles - Rubber Soul (UK 2 box pressing). I'm practically melting as I type this. Tubes suck when it's 95 and you don't have A/C. Edit to add: Tubes suck when it's 95 out and you have a laptop on your actual lap and no A/C. :) Edited June 20, 2012 by Kevin Bresnahan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Don DeMicheal was one of my best friends. I met him in 1964/5 - not sure. We became fast friends over the years and I miss him every day of my life. I think he was the best editor Down Beat ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I love his work on this album and I'm glad you were his friend. That's a great album, sounds just how I like albums to sound too. I would have loved to have met all three of those guys at that time and beyond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Mingus in Europe Volume II (Enja) There's an extra cut on the cd of this album and I keep wondering if I should pick up the cd for one track. I know it's Mingus and Dolphy and that should be enough to warrant it, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 How did you find out what was going to be released and when, back then. Did you have to rely on relationships with record store owners? Yes. In '69 and early '70 I worked in a record shop - so that was easy. Later, I developed relationships with shop owners. The ones who'd let me know what was going down were the people who ran the best shops anyway. It was a matter of some difficulty when my wife started giving birth in the middle of the night before Grant Green's 'Shades of Green' was coming out. But, despite no sleep, I made it to the shop MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Recorded at United Sound in Detroit, arranged by David Van De Pitte, with Earl Van Dyke on piano for good measure. I got to meet Denise LaSalle once in a social setting. Her personality on record and in-person were pretty much one and the same. She's lively!

BillF Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Miles Davis 'Birth Of The Cool' (Capital 12" orig, mono) Used to have one of those. First, though, I had this: You won't approve of this Sidewinder, but in a programme of progressive replacement, I've ended up with a CD that looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
