Shawn Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Well, this week it's got to be two cuts from the Roy Eldridge Mosaic Dale's wail and Echoes of Harlem MG Just listened to that yesterday, Dale's Wail is pretty fantastic stuff. Quote

B. Goren. Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Lee Konitz & Eddie Gomez play Alone Together: Quote
Christiern Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 I love Bird, so I started off with "Possibly 'Lover Man'" from the Benedetti Mosaic box, but its total running time is only 8 seconds, so I turned to Roy Eldridge and Bud Freeman w. Ray Bryant, Tommy Bryant, Elmer Snowden, and Jo Jones. Quote
Free For All Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 From... The Complete Verve Gerry Mulligan Concert Jazz Band Sessions- Blueport A favorite CJB cut. The quote-fest that Mulligan and Terry get into is priceless. Quote
kh1958 Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 (edited) Not one track--four tracks recorded by Johnny Dodd's Black Bottom Stompers on April 22, 1927 (Weary Blues, New Orleans Stomp, Wild Man Blues, and Melancholy)--with Louis Armstrong on cornet. How did I miss these until now? From Johnny Dodds, South Side Chicago Jazz. Five other tracks on this CD, recorded the day before (two also with Louis), are mighty fine as well.

Chuck Nessa Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Great stuff. Some of my favorite records. Quote

Well, you've revealed that I have severely fucked sleeve notes to my Quadromania Dodds set (surprised?) They list New Orleans blues - 22 Apr Wild man blues & Willie the weeper - 7 May Aligator crawl, Potato head blues & Keyhole blues - 10 May Melancholy blues & Weary blues - 11 May Wild man blues (with George Mitchell) - 4 Jun Whut?

MG I'm not familiar with Quadromania, but would recommend the well-done MCA/Decca 1990 reissue. It's out of print but cheap copies are available. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00...7281&sr=1-1 Quote

Alternatively I suggest finding the 4 Dodds issues on Classics and the Neatwork with the alts. Dodds is one of my favorite artists. Quote

The Classics 1927 is the only one around at present. Amazon France have it for 55 Euro! Honestly, you'd have thought that someone as important as Dodds would have had a decent box put together.

BillF Posted July 6, 2008 Report Posted July 6, 2008 The version of "Nardis" from Bill Evans' Solo Sessions, Vol 1 (Milestone) Meditative, probing, profoundly beautiful! Quote

MG On amazon U.S. the 1927-28 was available used for $14 so I ordered it. The rest of the Classics were variously available for $25, $40 and $58. Edited July 6, 2008 by kh1958 Quote

Besides what's been mentioned, the 4/22/27 recordings, including two alternates, are available on Frog 39 - Johnny Dodds: New Orleans Stomp - Johnny Dodds on Brunswick & Vocalion 1926-27. Quote
JSngry Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Well, it's early in the week, but I don't think anything this week's going to beat The Ummah's remix of Grant Green's "Down Here On The Ground" on The New Groove (The Blue Note Remix Project Volume 1). Why? You say (or snicker...). Easy - the vocal of Dianne Reeves, a singer towards whom I am otherwise perpetually indifferent (which, mind you, is not the same as hostile or uninterested). She sings the hell outta this song here, & The Ummah's chopping of the GG original (which does leave plenty of Grant's solo in the mix, btw) results in a pocket so deep you could hide an ocean liner in it. But really, it's all about Reeves' vocal. I honestly didn't have the notes in front of me at first and didn't know it was her until I looked. all I knew was that I kept playing the cut over and end over and over and over. And over. Ms. Reeves was killing me! As for the rest of the CD, uh...it's ok here & there, a really nice things on "Kofi" & "Move Your Hand", but the rest of it...eh, whatever. A good $5-$6 used buy, I'd say. But that Dianne Reeves cut is worth all of that, and more! Quote
Sundog Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Another early entry, but for now... Jack Teagarden- I Swung The Election Quote
