Any love for these Blue Notes? I dont know them, any good ones?

Toshiba TOCJ 6716(Blue Note)New(24 Bit) Laws,Ronnie(ts)/ Pressure Sensitive 1500

Despite being loaded with everything I hate - electric piano, soprano sax, synthesizers -- this one w/Joe Sample on board is pretty good. We played a couple of tracks at our wedding reception in 1988. The song 'Always There' is great for a party.....got a good groove! I pull the LP or cd out a couple of times a year just to blast that one track.

takanaka is an ace guitarist, a la benson. probably a bit commercial for most tastes here.

IMHO, the wilen 'auto jazz' is a mess. attempts @ avant streams of consciousness played over race car sound effects.

the hayes reissues are lower priced issues (refelcting a trend in the japanese marketplace) and are in jewelcases, not mini-lp's...

Hi etherbored. Do you know whether the Tubby Hayes releases use the same poor masters that were used when they came out originally a few years ago. From what you say it seems that they are straight re-releases albeit at a cheaper price

My suspicion on the 'new' Tubby Hayes issues is that they may well have the same mastering as previously, some of which ('100% Proof') were from mono LPs I think. The recent UK Universal issues seem to have used the same sources as the previous Japanese issues so this 'new' issue may just be a re-run.

Hope I'm wrong.. :wacko:

I'm just listening to "A Day in Copenhagen", and it's a very enjoyable recording. Gordon is fine, the rhythm section is terrific, but what is impressing me the most is Dizzy Reece's playing; did he ever play better?

This album is wholeheartedly recommended!
