jeffcrom Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Disc three of the Ellington Capitol. The biggest surprise is a version of "In the Mood" that I actually like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Ellington Capitol, disc 5. This is a strange set. There's some brilliant stuff here, but also lots of pretty lousy tracks. Ellington and/or Capitol were trying hard for a hit record, with sometimes regrettable results ("Bunny Hop Mambo," for instance). I'm really glad to to have this set, but some tracks will seldom get played again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff ! Art Hodes can wait another year, I guess. Same with the Commodores Vol 2 & 3 for me. Got to pace yourself with Mosaics.

king ubu Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Playing discs 5-7 of the Amos Milburn now - love it! Sure, I will most likely take it in small doses in the future (and I'll want to listen while reading up the sessions one day, too... just read the introductory essay so far).

paul secor Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Classic Capitol Jazz Sessions - disc 2 - Nappy Lamare, Eddie Miller, Ray Bauduc, Marvin Ash I was a bit wary before I listened to these sides, but I found there was a fair amount to enjoy, even if I wouldn't classify any of it as classic.

king ubu Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 Enjoying the Benny Goodman Capitol Small Group that I had in the mail today! Haven't started playing the music yet, but around a third is familiar from the Capitol Trios, In Hi-Fi and BG Story Reissues. Good to have it all now! Again, new set (no # in the booklet, the box a bit damaged, but got it for a good price so I won't complain!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Ellington Capitol, disc four. Now that I've listened to the whole set, I'll usually be skipping some of the lesser tracks. I still can't get over "Bunny Hop Mambo." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
