jazzbo Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) One side of this was enough. Now on to something much grittier. Edited July 30, 2012 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Anthony Braxton - Four Four Orchestras (Arista); side four. I enjoyed Braxton's For Trio so much this morning that I thought I'd give part of this another try, to see if my negative feelings had changed. Nope. It still seems random to me, and not random in a purposeful way, like some of Cage's music - just rambling and unfocused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure this will help but here is a note from Cuscuna that was stuck inside my box. Yes, I got a promo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive Solal! (Capitol stereo). A U.S. reissue of an excellent 1960 session, which presumably had a less ridiculous title on the original French album.

JSngry Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Same for Groove's vocal on "Poke Salad Annie"...not even "good for what it is". But Thornell Schwartz is ALL good here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Issued on RCA with little to no fanfare. Totally solo (albeit overdubbed solo), and totally badass. Eddie Harris was a complicated man. Not sure if no one understood him but his woman or not, but...this is a serious album with some serious playing on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Apparently this is readily available on CD, but with some additional, unrelated, irrelevant material added. I got the Spindletop LP without all that nonsense. And nonsense-free it is. Splendid playing by both men. If all you know of Eddie Harris is the commercial stuff, and/or if all you know of Ellis Marsalis is his offspring, then this album will show you that even if you can't ultimately get past that, you could if you wanted to.
