Soulstation1 Posted August 9, 2005 Report Posted August 9, 2005 i will be purchasing the lonnie smith and JOS cds haven't heard them ss1 Quote
sal Posted August 9, 2005 Report Posted August 9, 2005 For the first time in probably 4 years, I won't be buying any of the new RVG's. Quote
jazzbo Posted August 9, 2005 Report Posted August 9, 2005 (edited) I'm interested in hearing what RVG does with "Turning Point," "Let me Tell You About It" and most especially "Reach Out" (which I like). Edited August 10, 2005 by jazzbo Quote
Soulstation1 Posted August 9, 2005 Report Posted August 9, 2005 think is next for me i guess no lonnie smith mosaic select, with these 2 titles being released Quote
BFS Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 I'm interested in hearing what RVG does with "Think," "Let me Tell You About It" and most especially "Reach Out" (which I like). ← I've had the TOCJ of "Let Me Tell You About It" for some time...absoultely a great Blue Note in the finest tradition! Quote
jazzbo Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 Yeah, I've had the Spanish version that is basically a TOCJ. Like the session. The RVG may sound better (your mileage may vary, I like RVGs) and should have an alternate as well. That's going to be good! Quote
Soul Stream Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 To me, this list is as good of one as I've ever seen. That's MY tastes only, yours may not apply. Can't wait.... . I'll be picking them ALL up... Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 Time to replace my vinyl copy of Turning Point! Word! Quote
Alfred Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 There's a strange label name on the CDUniverse website when using the above links: ANGEL. Did I miss something??! Quote
Daniel A Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 Angel Records is another EMI subsidiary, which happens to have a couple of new releases on September 13th. Probably a mix-up at CDUniverse. Quote
Soul Stream Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 Time to replace my vinyl copy of Turning Point! Word! ← Yes!!! And who'd of thunk it? Turning Point...not high on the list of BN probabilities in my mind. But GLAD it's come up. Simply one of Lonnie's greatest and with Lee Morgan and Bennie Maupin on board, there's just some BEAUTIFUL sounds on there. I love organ with a full horn front line, and it's just not represented that much. Quote
sidewinder Posted August 10, 2005 Report Posted August 10, 2005 Can't wait to get hold of 'Turning Point'. Never heard this one. Quote
Guest akanalog Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 turning point isn't as deep as you might think with maupin and priester aboard. its alright. the version of elanor rigby is better than expected and has a dark little section. Quote
Guest akanalog Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 i would say "think" is more interesting and unique among doctor lonnie sessions. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 I'll probably get the Lonnie. No sense in me replacing "The Sounds of Jimmy Smith" because I have the Mosaic. If BN releases RVG's of "At the Club Baby Grand", and his Japan only dates like "Lonesome Road" and trio + LD, then I will bite. Quote
scottb Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 Only one I have is the Blue Mitchell so I'll be checking them all out! Quote
Guy Berger Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 The Mitchell and Turrentine I'll definitely pick up at some point. The Turbanator CD might also get picked up. Guy Quote
Soulstation1 Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 (edited) imo hank's reach out session is one of his weaker cds Edited August 11, 2005 by Soulstation1 Quote
Soul Stream Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 imo hank's reach out session is one of his weaker cds ← I think most would say the same thing given the backdrop of the complete Hank BN discography. That said, it's still a personal fave because I dig that era of BN and it's interesting to hear Hank in this environment. He never fails to bring his full self to the table. Quote
David Ayers Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 I'm very fond of Reach Out! It's one that grows on you when others fade... Quote
B. Goren. Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 Any opinion on Leo Parker recording??? Quote
White Lightning Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 Any opinion on Leo Parker recording??? ← Loving it! Quote
jazzbo Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 I really like Leo Parker, and his Blue Notes sort of seem a bridge to the earlier Blue Note years and the modern Blue Note years; lover as I am of the early years, I really like these two lps/cds. I've had this as a domestic cd, and as a Time Life (Spanish) "blued over" cd (which sports TOCJ 16 bit mastering). I'll buy the RVG because I bet it will sound best of them all (subjective opinion only!) and because I want them to reissue the OTHER in the RVG series. . . . I may buy copies for my brother and a few friends for Xmas too. Here's an earlier Leo Parker thread (just over a year old) http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...topic=11809&hl= Quote
