Richard "Groove" Holmes - Super Soul

Noj, I bet you didn't know that Groove Holmes' recording with Gerald Wilson was the first jazz organ with big band recording. I had thought that the first was a Jimmy Smith with Oliver Nelson effort, but I was wrong.

Milt Buckner played organ with Lionel Hampton's orchestra a decade before Wilson's recording with Holmes .

And Count Basie played organ with the Count Basie band in the thirties.

I knew Basie recorded on organ with the orchestra in the Fifties but I cited Buckner because I thought he did so slightly before Basie . The Basie organ recordings from the Thirties were with smaller groups not the orchestra weren't they ?

Dunno - I noticed Basie playing organ on a track featuring Jimmy Rushing. I'll check whether the whole band's there when the present CD stops.

OK - I just checked.

On the cheapo comp I've got, Basie plays organ on "Nobody knows", with the whole band (or a lot of saxes and trumpets and at least one trombone) behind Jimmy Rushing. No idea how many other tracks there are like this; it's the only one on this CD.

Many interesting items made available today. Does anyone know about the Miles Live in Amsterdam '57, or the MussoMusic.com titles ("Improvised Music New York 1981" or the Machine Gun titles)? The Sackvilles also look interesting.

Lots of interesting Sackville titles -- thanks for the tip, mrjzee.

Ratzo Harris on that Werner is solid. Really enjoy that album. Be interested in what you think about Zen House. One of my favorites of the numerous pairings of Hellborg and Lane. If you haven't listen to Temporal Analogues of Paradise...
