paul secor Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Illinois Jacquet - Swing's the Thing (Verve deep groove). This is a delight; Roy Eldridge is in excellent form. Wonderful record - it includes the best version of "Harlem Nocturne" that I've ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Back to Live/Evil. Bartz really captures me here, especially on the fourth side, where he seems to fuse Voodoo Down and a prescient Jean-Pierre and it's all grounded in his own sound and groove.

I was thinking last night that it's the only version of that tune I actually like enough to want to hear again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Coming back to this one. Better than most, got a good bouncy/lively bouncy liveliness to it verging on the shaggable frisky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I saw the saxophone .... New to me. Wonder if Jeff knows him or knows of him. edir: Did a search and found this Edited June 29, 2012 by paul secor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Michael Hurley: Watertower (Fundamental) I posted this once before, but it's worth rereading or reading. Twenty five years ago, my friend Bill Morrison wrote what I find is the truest and most descriptive review of Michael Hurley's music: "I guess Michael Hurley fits in with folkies as a genre - he totes a guitar, mostly writes his own tunes, is influenced by blues and country. But there it stops - Hurley needs a bin of his own in the shop, if you ask me. His songs sound like they were pulled together out of spare parts - a little Hank Willians, a little Fats Domino, a little Appalachian fiddle melody, and some other stuff that Hurley machined on his own slightly off-center lathe. His loosest songs resemble the Rustoleum-and-duct-tape jalopies you see on the road in rural Vermont, where Hurley lives - weld together the right spare parts, and you can get something that will run forever, even if it emits some funny rattles and maybe needs a jump-start sometimes. Cars and songs like this elicit a kind of affection that factory-fresh ones will never know." Nick Tosches put it another way at the end of his notes for Hurley's Weatherhole: "Let's just shut up, you and me both; let's just shut up and listen and go where Michael Hurley is. After all, we can always turn around and come back. He can't." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) Haven't heard Auld, really, but the name has crossed my path. Hope to have the opportunity to check out the music sometime. Now: Barry Guy - Statements for Double Bass and Violone - (Incus) Have the "original" but was happy to get this one with a hand-drawn cover by Alan Davie from Maya. Basically an unplayed stock Incus LP with a handmade new cover. Edited June 30, 2012 by clifford_thornton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
