paul secor Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Carmell Jones - disc 3 - the Harold Land: Jazz Impressions of Folk Music record Michael Cuscuna's reminiscence in the liner notes relates how Chuck helped rescue this from obscurity. Great that he did. It's a damn fine session. Edited February 1, 2018 by paul secor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Discs 1 and 2. Lovely stuff. Unfortunately I didn't really get to appreciate Jones during his lifetime. I don't recollect his recordings being that easily available this side of the pond. Edited January 31, 2018 by JohnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 ‘The Remarkable Carmell Jones’ was put out on UK Vogue, John. I occasionally see copies in second hand racks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 That's a very nice set. I think the music here is better than his playing on his Prestige date or with Horace Silver. After retiring from the Berlin Radio jazz orchestra he was reunited with his old Californian buddy Lou Blackburn in the latter's Afro-Jazz band, Mombasa. I remember they had a fun time playing together again. They were really cookin' when I heard them in the rather small Frankfurt Jazzkeller.

JohnS Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Carmell Jones Disc 3 yesterday. I can't say that the Strazzeri set grabbed me this time around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) James P. Johnson is in the house! Took from Friday to Monday to bring it here - just opened it and threw in the frist disc. Splendid sound for a 1921 session. My copy is # 1209 ...... did they really have all 5000 copies made?

I don't have any inside info, but I'd be very surprised if there were 5000 copies of this box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I´ve just listend to the last CD from the Cliff Jordon Strata East: The Glassbeads Game. Really great the two different quartets, the one with Stanley Cowell and the one with Cedar Walton. The Cliff-Walton-Sam Jones-Billy Higgins group became the working unit, that would record very much in the following years. In general, that Box has a lot of interesting material, but I liked most the Rhytm X, the Pharoah Sanders with Sonny Sharrock, and of course the Glass Beads Game.
