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
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 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. 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

Chuck Nessa Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 An old favorite - Wesley Wallace playing No. 29. 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
blind-blake Posted January 14, 2010 Report Posted January 14, 2010 (edited) Listening to Safari from Horace Silver's first BN record now. Man, what a tune! Art Blakey is amazing on this one. Edited January 14, 2010 by blind-blake Quote
JohnS Posted January 15, 2010 Report Posted January 15, 2010 Joe Lovano playing William Walton's 'Touch Her Sweet Lips and Part' from Peter Erskines Sweet Soul. This variation on a folk tune never fails to impress me. Altogther an excellent cd which should be better known. Quote

Guest Bill Barton Posted January 15, 2010 Report Posted January 15, 2010 "You Leave Me Breathless" from Hadley Caliman's new one, Straight Ahead. Quote

A Lark Ascending Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Joe Lovano playing William Walton's 'Touch Her Sweet Lips and Part' from Peter Erskines Sweet Soul. This variation on a folk tune never fails to impress me. Isn't that a William Walton piece from his Henry V music rather than a folk tune? (sorry...just being pedantic!) http://www.williamwalton.net/works/film/henry_v_suite_chorus.html I don't know that record, but Erskine also recorded it on one of the trio albums he made with John Taylor on ECM. It's a lovely tune. Edited January 16, 2010 by Bev Stapleton Quote
