Late Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Posted January 25, 2005 GREAT cover! Isn't it? The Bill Hardman Quintet goes out for (drive-through) coffee ... a la Dali. Or something like that. There's actually a website somewhere (don't have the URL anymore) based in part on that artist's work for Savoy. One cover I saved ... Quote
Late Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Posted January 25, 2005 Aha! Here's the site. Short, but sweet. Quote
BFrank Posted January 26, 2005 Report Posted January 26, 2005 I'm assuming that's the same music that's on the Savoy album I have. Except mine's a 1986 reissue with a very uninspired (yet strangely psychedelic) cover. Quote
Late Posted January 29, 2005 Author Report Posted January 29, 2005 Check out Hardman on this one ... nice. Quote
Brownian Motion Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 Good Bill Hardman on this Blakey album from 1956. Quote
Stereojack Posted January 30, 2005 Report Posted January 30, 2005 I saw Hardman twice - in the 1970's with Art Blakey, and around 1980 in a group with Junior Cook and Walter Bishop. He was a low key but thoughtful player. I like his mature playing a lot, especially the Muse albums. Quote
Bill Fenohr Posted January 30, 2005 Report Posted January 30, 2005 Jack,i second that on the three Muse albums. Quote
Michael Weiss Posted February 5, 2005 Report Posted February 5, 2005 Some of Bill's best playing on record is on Lou Donaldson's Fried Buzzard. Quote
Joe Carter Posted February 5, 2005 Report Posted February 5, 2005 The couple of times I had the opportunity to play with Bill he placed his trumpet on the side of his mouth not the front. I never thought to ask him the reason for that. I assume he might have had some dental problems and I don't know if he always played this way. Does anybody know or remember seeing this? Joe C. Quote
