Tom 1960 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Discs 2 & 3 Pretty much what I expected and that's a good thing. Bennie Green, surprised this guy didn't get more noteriety. Fine work. Nice personnel on this collection which also includes Gene Ammons who played on the Soul Stirrin' date. Thanks to those who recommended this collection.

sal Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 okay I'm on the last track and I forgot how HOT this is! :wub: - This is quickly moving up on my FAV Select list... :tup Yep, that Dexter Select is nice! I've been spinning the Pendulum Select all morning. I wasn't real into this one when I first got it, but its starting to grow on me. Some VERY nice soloing on here.

Guest Bixieland Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I was gonna squeeze that in when I ordered the Columbia small groups...of course there were about 10 other singles and Selects jockeying for "tag-along" status. so I axed them all and just got the Columbia. Now I wish I got, this one, that one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bixieland Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Classic Chu Berry Columbia and Victor Sessions: Disc V Two comments I'd like to make: First, Chu was awesome. And second, Ted Kendall is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bixieland Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Does anyone get an eastern vibe on Chu? I swear he's playing with me. Like a snake charmer, eating fire in a zoot soot. Fitting it was that his nickname is of eastern origin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tranemonk Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 A couple of years ago when I saw him with McCoy Tyner... he was extremely unimpressive... Grinned the whole time as he was thinking he was awesome... His solos were quite underwhelming.... Now that cat I just saw McCoy with this weekend (Eric Gravatt) is a very nice drummer... great cymbal work.... Al Foster was an incredible groove / funk drummer. Jazz. . . he has his moments!

Yes Eric Gravatt. . . excellent drummer. You may be mistaking Foster's grin. . . performers developing habits, and masks, to display on stage. Better to be grinning than grimacing, or totally blank. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
