A Lark Ascending Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 Between Truro and St Agnes on the coast,near Porthtowan. Not a decent record shop within a hundred miles! That would be the jazz CD shop in Bath, if you are thinking East of Cornwall. Failing that it's the Jazz Record Centre or Downtown Music Gallery NYC if thinking West. I'm not sure if there are any jazz outlets these days in Exeter (there used to be a great LP shop on Gandy St but long gone now I'm afraid). Too bad that Peter Russell's 'Hot Record Store' in Plymouth is long gone. That was a good place - although a bit 'trad/mainstream' inclined. I think I'd prefer NYC! Rubbish pasties! In 3 1/2 years living in Cornwall I got out twice - both times to Plymouth! It's probably as easy to get to NYC as Bath. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 In addition to those MF Horn albums, there is also Maynard's self-titled Columbia album, with killer versions of "Aquarius" and "Fire and Rain." Quote

jlhoots Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 I never thought of Jones / Lewis as "fusion". Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 It certainly is different here. You might recall the Cornish expression d'reckly ( ie directly ) which I heard described as like the Spanish expression manana without the sense of urgency. I certainly do - my dad still uses it to mean 'later on' rather than 'immediately'. He also eats 'AAAggs' with his bacon! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 It certainly is different here. You might recall the Cornish expression d'reckly ( ie directly ) which I heard described as like the Spanish expression manana without the sense of urgency. In South Wales, we have "now", which means the approcimately same thing. MG Quote
Jazzjet Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Posted June 17, 2008 Mustn't forget 'Brown Street' by Joe Zawinul and the WDR big band. It's a blistering album and the title track is worth the price of the album on its own. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Fusion with what? Mention of the WDR big band reminded me of Bernard Purdie - Soul to jazz vols 1 & 2 - ACT (with the WDR big band) Pee Wee Ellis - What you like - Minor Music (with the NDR big band) MG Quote
