T.D. Posted August 13, 2013 Report Posted August 13, 2013 The Don Pullen Select. One of those things I missed out on when current and wound up purchasing used... Quote
Carl Baugher Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 The new Coltrane Sun Ship box of LPs. I never seem to tire of this music. Quote
king ubu Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 Effin' amazin' - best jazz violin ever, at least this side of Leroy Jenkins and Billy Bang! Stuff Smith was a giant. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) Yup. Do you have his recordings with Eddie Johnson on Chess? Edited August 15, 2013 by Chuck Nessa Quote
king ubu Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 That's definitely one of my favorite Mosaic boxes, ever! I guess too much music was committed to disc in too short a time, and after Granz sold to MGM and they god rid of Stuff, the recordings just lay in the archives ... glad they weren't lost, for sure! There's some marvellous music on the unreleased session with Jimmy Jones! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 and Jimmy Jones is the connection to Eddie Johnson. Quote
king ubu Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 And Levy was a Chicagoan too, right? Or at least back then (the forties trio on the Progressive disc I just played previously to the Mosaic) he was well-known there? I guess Jimmy Jones is pretty darn interesting, not always great, but when he's on, he's on to something! The Eddie Johnson disc (the Nessa, that is), is ready to be played again too, after the recently revived thread. I like it a lot! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted August 15, 2013 Report Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) Jimmy Jones, John Levy and Eddie Johnson were school chums and..... Jimmy Jones is worthy of someone's doctorate. Edited August 15, 2013 by Chuck Nessa Quote
king ubu Posted August 16, 2013 Report Posted August 16, 2013 Disc 3 now - this one, expanded: Fabulous! @Chuck: thanks, wasn't aware of that! The Eddie Johnson goes up on top the listening pile! Quote
paul secor Posted August 24, 2013 Report Posted August 24, 2013 LPs 1, 2 ... Welcome back, Guy. I assume you were one vacation (along with the rest of the French population). Quote
brownie Posted August 25, 2013 Report Posted August 25, 2013 LPs 1, 2 ... Welcome back, Guy. I assume you were one vacation (along with the rest of the French population). I have been on a very prolonged vacation ever since I retired from professional duties... and enjoying it! Quote
