medjuck Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) From the album Tim Hardin 3: Live in Concert Stunning singing. Sad he left us too soon. Him and Hank, both. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utyyDLIyNS0&list=FLl_-tD2va_T6TPkdzAyZzIg&index=1 Studio version, from Tim Hardin II http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAkcybHs6dc&feature=autoplay&list=FLl_-tD2va_T6TPkdzAyZzIg&playnext=1 I love this record. (Though the band gets up so much steam on some songs they almost blow by him.) Edited November 28, 2011 by medjuck Quote
jazzbo Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Posted December 19, 2011 This week I was tempted to jump back into the Europe '72 box set again but decided to listen to a series of discs compiled for me about five years ago by Dr. Orchid of great Pigpen performances and today I've been concentrating on versions of "Easy Wind." Just love that song and it inspired some great stretching out. Quote

ElginThompson Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 European Echoes ... the Trio's synergy is sublime. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Just listened to the track "Diggin' In" from the Dexter Gordon box set of Columbia recordings. This tune is seriously joyful and swinging with Eddie Jefferson vocalizing and wonderful solos by Dexter Gordon and Woody Shaw. This track brought a very large smile to my face. Quote
Neal Pomea Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 Clarence Williams and His Orchestra, Speakeasy Recorded August 1928, Long Island City, NY, Broadway 1347-B (heard in Joe Bussard's basement) Outstanding tuba again by Cyrus St. Clair, and a lot more of course! Red Hot Jazz Archive has this at http://www.redhotjazz.com/williamso.html Quote
colinmce Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 Jimmy Lyons & Andrew Cyrille - "Take The A Train" Just wonderful. Quote
BillF Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 The wittily-titled "Parker 51" from Stan Getz at Storyville (1951). Getz, Jimmy Raney and Al Haig zoom through "Cherokee/Koko" changes. Quote
king ubu Posted February 9, 2012 Report Posted February 9, 2012 Got hold of the VJC Carnegie Hall Concert by Ellington (Jan. 13, 1948) - fantastic! And that's the cue... "Fantazm" with Carney on bass clarinet! Wow! Quote
Larry Kart Posted February 18, 2012 Report Posted February 18, 2012 Fabulous Gillespie on three tracks (Groovin' High, Round Midnight, Shaw Nuff) on this: http://www.amazon.com/Jazz-At-Philharmonic-Seattle-1956/dp/B005EN4JKK/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_img_3 Quote

DavidB.Wilkerson Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 "Frank's Tune," Ahmad Jamal, "Poinciana Revisited." "Star Trek," The Three Sounds with The Oliver Nelson Orchestra, "Coldwater Flat." A Gene Harris composition rather than the Alexander Courage TV theme. Quote

spangalang Posted February 26, 2012 Report Posted February 26, 2012 Today "Modal Mood" literally made me swoon, and I was driving! Quote
king ubu Posted February 28, 2012 Report Posted February 28, 2012 solo of the day: Janice Robinson on trombone with plunger in "The Farewell" on Jones/Lewis' "Suite for Pops"! Quote
John Tapscott Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 A very swinging version of "As Long As I Live" by Richard Wyands from the CD "Half and Half" (Criss Cross) Quote
Peter Friedman Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 "Straight No Chaser" by the Kenny Barron Trio with Buster Williams & Ben Riley. From album GREEN CHIMNEYS on Criss Cross. Quote
Shawn Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 "Eight Miles High" by The Byrds. Sometimes re-living an old favorite can be just as stimulating as hearing something new. Quote
Big Al Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 Not just a track, but a whole friggin' album: McCoy Tyner NIGHTS OF BALLADS AND BLUES. Certaintly not his most essential recordings, and nowhere near as intense as his later solo work and his work with Trane. But as the jazz equivalent of comfort food, it simply can't be beat! Quote
Tom 1960 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 This week a non jazz track, from Pink Floyd's "Animals" the track "Pigs(Three Different Ones)". Listening to this album was like revisiting a long last friend. I kind of forgot just how much I enjoyed this album. Very underrated, IMO. It's a shame classic rock radio, doesn't play this more often. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 'Stupidly Happy' by XTC off Wasp Star. Ended the week on a big high, heard a fragment on a UK TV advert and it just fitted my mood. Quote
paul secor Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 Archie Shepp/Cecil Taylor/Buell Neidlinger/Dennis Charles: "Cell Walk for Celeste" (take 3) from The Complete Candid Recordings of Cecil Taylor and Buell Neidlinger (Mosiac) Four musicians on the same wave length - in every sense of that term Quote
