danasgoodstuff Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Shorty Rogers And His Giants- Martians Go Home. Nice quirky laid back groove on this one. No, man, Martians Come Back! maybe Suzie Q. - excited about the whole CCR 40th Anniversary box! Oh man, for me CCR'sSuzie Q is far weaker than either the Stones' or Dale Hawkins' original... maybe Suzie Q. - excited about the whole CCR 40th Anniversary box! Oh man, for me CCR's "Suzie Q" is far weaker than either the Stones' (on 12X5) or Dale Hawkins' original...Fogerty does write nice tho' Quote
JohnS Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Autumn In New York by David Murray from Seasons (Pow Wow). Has a typical Murray tango feel. However all the pieces from this cd are splendid. September In The Rain and Let It Snow(topical in the UK at the moment) sre great also. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 23, 2009 Report Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Laugh, Laugh by the Beau Brummels. I hadn't heard this song in at least a decade, maybe longer, and it sounds completely different to me now than it did then. Then, it was kind of Hollies-lite sounding, now I'm hearing Jefferson Airplane. Am I losing my mind? Edited December 23, 2009 by Jazzmoose Quote

jazzbo Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Posted December 23, 2009 "I Thought About You" my favorite track from the Miles Davis '63 Antibes Festival performance. First discovered this on the four cd set "The Columbia Years," then in better sound on the "Seven Steps" box set, and it's now on the separate "Miles in Europe" cd (and in the new Columbia Album Collection set). Just beautiful and moving. Quote
porcy62 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Posted December 23, 2009 "Sagar" from Ananda Shankar - ST - Reprise. Quote
Shawn Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 Born To Be Blue - Gene Ammons (from The Gene Ammons Story: Organ Combos) Gorgeous! Quote
WorldB3 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Posted December 24, 2009 There's No Business Like Show Business - Sonny Rollins - Worktime. Been on a 50's Prestige kick all year. Quote
ghost of miles Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 Not a jazz track, but an indie pop-rock one--a lost song by the La's (UK group that recorded one legendary album): I Am the Key Quote
jazzbo Posted December 28, 2009 Author Report Posted December 28, 2009 "Share Your Love with Me" by Aretha Franklin, which keeps hitting me this week for personal reasons. I realized recently that "This Girl's In Love with You" was the only 'sixties/1970 lp by Aretha I had only on vinyl and not on cd, and corrected that quickly. And got stuck on that song. Quote
ornette Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 Ummh by Bobby Hutcherson, from the San Fransisco album. Quote
WorldB3 Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 One by One - Mal Waldron (Side Steps Box) It's sounds like a great early Mingus tune with Coltrane. Quote
Royal Oak Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 (edited) Not a jazz track, but an indie pop-rock one--a lost song by the La's (UK group that recorded one legendary album): I Am the Key I played that album to death in 1991! I don't know if you ever heard of The Coral - another Liverpudlian group (they seem to have disappeared after about 2004). I always felt they were cut from the same cloth, right down to their singer being a dead ringer for Lee Mavers. Edited December 28, 2009 by rdavenport Quote

I've heard of them, but I haven't actually heard them--thanks, rdavenport, I'll check 'em out. A lot of that La's stuff from 1987-90 just strikes me as pop genius. Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 Herbie Hancock-Ostinato (Suite for Angels) off of Mwandishi. Baddazz when Billy Hart's drums seem to go into this weird psychedelic swirl. Quote

paul secor Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 An old favorite - Wesley Wallace playing No. 29. Have that one on a Paramount piano compilation. Just set it aside for a relisten tomorrow. Thanks for the reminder. Quote
Brad Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 Well, the one that grabbed me today was Simon & Garfunkel's Bookends. Incredible tune. I want to learn to play it. Quote
Larry Kart Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 A fair bit of competition, but Gene Ammons' "Five O'Clock Whistle" from the album "Up Tight" (OJC)-- just one shapely swinging melody after another. What a player. Quote
Free For All Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 A fair bit of competition, but Gene Ammons' "Five O'Clock Whistle" from the album "Up Tight" (OJC)-- just one shapely swinging melody after another. What a player. Gene Ammons was a frequent listening choice on my holiday road trip. So much swinging soulful music. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 Not sure about the entire week, but over the past couple of days this one is a favorite: "My Foolish Heart" by Stan Getz from the CD "LIVE AT THE LEFT BANK". Quote
JohnS Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 George Russell in KC. Great from start to finish. It doesn't come much better than this. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 Jeff "Tain" Watts: Dancin' 4 Chicken, and Devil's Ring Tone: The Movie, and the instrumental version. Quote
