jeffcrom Posted August 13, 2011 Report Posted August 13, 2011 John Coltrane - Live Trane: The European Concerts (Pablo). Disc one, with the great Stockholm 1961 sets with Eric Dolphy. To get personal for a minute, I still remember finding a record store in Atlanta (back in 1979 or '80) that had a very hip jazz buyer - my jaw dropped while looking through the stacks. They had records I had only read about. My first two purchases were Andrew Hill's Point of Departure and an Affinity LP with one of the Coltrane Stockholm sets I'm listening to now. Quote
Bluesnik Posted August 13, 2011 Report Posted August 13, 2011 stan getz. the complete roost recordings. it's early getz... so it's good enough if you like the formative years, when the artist's voice is still fresh and not too overmarketed, better than the later years when it's more a question of satisfyinig an audience than saying what you want to say.

Leeway Posted August 13, 2011 Report Posted August 13, 2011 Disc 2. Good-sounding set. The music of course is special. Quote
king ubu Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 Fela - The Complete Works of Fela Anikulapo Kuti Again and again played discs from this in the past days... making my way through it, trying to sort things out (they could have programmed this chronologically, methinks... doing my own discography with help of this site now). Needless to say, the music's effin' amazin'! Btw, it's of course not quite complete... but 26 CDs will be more than most want, I guess... Me, I need more Koola Lobitos, that's for sure! Quote

If I could keep only 10 jazz records, this would be one. Quote

king ubu Posted September 2, 2011 Report Posted September 2, 2011 yeah! got this a few days ago, giving it a first spin tonight - into the third album by now, not sure about the fourth and fifth, but the first two are classics of course and the third so far sounds very good, too! the five full albums included are: Music for K (Polish Jazz Vol. 22) Twet (Polish Jazz Vol. 39) Music 81 (Polish Jazz Vol. 69) Lady Go Switzerland - Tomasz Stanko Freelectronic Live at Montreux Jazz Festival 1987 in case someone wonders: I bought mine from amazon.fr - pretty acceptable price there... the discs come in mini-lp/replica cardboard sleeves in a small box (CD-sized, roughly) and there's a booklet coming with it - two essays, one on Stanko in general, another one on the albums and the music, both in polish and english. Haven't yet read any of it though. Quote
king ubu Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 Art Pepper - Blues for the Fisherman: Unreleased Art Vol. VI Had it in the mail yesterday - first of the series that I got so far, and sounds great! Very good to have these sessions in their entirety! Quote
king ubu Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Hans Dulfer - The Formative Years '68-'98 some great stuff there... though not so sure how much sense the word "formative" makes, considering this is a broad overview of Dulfer's career. Quote
