John Tapscott Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 In the last few days: Woody Shaw - Master of the Art (despite the naysayers, I think this is a terrific recording - both Woody and Steve Turre are in great form - seems to me Woody himself didn't like this session - as often happened, he was being too hard on himself). Lee Morgan - The Rahjah Danny D'Imperio - Big Band Bloviation Donald Byrd/Pepper Adams Mosaic Mark Masters Jazz Orchestra - Priestess (great Billy Harper on this) Miles Davis - Someday My Prince Will Come Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain Billy Bang - Vietnam The Aftermath Kid Ory - Creole Classics Harold Mabern - Joyspring Up for the weekend: Wayne Shorter - The All-Seeing Eye (naturally) Quote

AfricaBrass Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I'd love to be listening to this week's CD of the week , but my order hasnt arrived yet. That's a drag, but you've got a couple days left. Actually, you have as long as you want. I look forward to your review. :rsmile: Peter, I look forward to your album of the week pick. I bet it will be a good one. I'm glad to see another Albert King fan here. He's one of my all-time favorite bluesmen. His rap in "I'll Play the Blues for You" is so smooth. I don't know if you dig mid-seventies King, but his I Wanna Get Funky album is one of my favorites. I love the song "Flat Tire" - It cracks me up. I've never gotten into Hayes' Black Moses. I'm more of a Hot Buttered Soul type of guy. I'll give it another listen. Today's listening: John Coltrane - Transition Charlie Haden/Pat Metheny - Beyond the Missouri Sky Donald Byrd - Byrd in Hand Non-jazz Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon (new reissue) - sounds REALLY good! :rsmile: :rsmile: Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted March 29, 2003 Report Posted March 29, 2003 For the last 3 nights I've been trying to listen to a disc of orchestral transcriptions (of works by other composers) by Schoenberg and Webern. This stuff is very interesting, and I keep getting interrupted by phone calls, dinner, etc. For those interested, it is by Michael Gielen / SWF Sym Orch playing: Brahms Piano Qr #1 (Schoenberg arrangement), Bach Fugue Ricercar (Webern arr) and Johann Strauss Kaiserwalter (Schoenberg). Great stuff! Quote
