JSngry Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 CD - http://www.dustygroove.com/item.php?id=n47g9hd6jx&ref=browse.php&refQ=kwfilter%3Dstark%2Breality%26amp%3Bincl_oos%3D1%26amp%3Bincl_cs%3D1 LP - http://www.dustygroove.com/item.php?id=3kjk8q5w93&ref=browse.php&refQ=kwfilter%3Dstark%2Breality%26amp%3Bincl_oos%3D1%26amp%3Bincl_cs%3D1 Nice package, good price, and music that is really groovy, in the best kind of way, if you know what I mean and like that type of thing. Should appeal to all fans of early "jazz-rock", every fan of fuzz-tone vibes playing, many fans of "groovy vibes playing", people who remember how fun acid trips were before you had a bad one, Hoagy Carmichael scholars, Boston jazz and/or WGBH scholars, and those who in general find inspiration in the way things were good before they weren't in spite of the likelihood that they'll probably not ever be that good again. See you tomorrow! Quote
Stefan Wood Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 Got it, listened to the first disc and now understand what the fuss is all about. Abercrombie unchained! Quote
JSngry Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Posted February 8, 2013 Disc 3 is where things get really trippy....Monty Stark was not in any way a "good singer", and at times could be called a genuinely awful singer, but he had a brilliant musical mind (and was a seriousass vibes player), and the music that is going on around his, shall we just call them "enthusiastic", vocals is startling in its organic originality. Still sounds fresh today, I think, which is a tribute to the spirit of everybody involved. Quote
robertoart Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 I felt like a deviant watching that. It must be good. Quote
.:.impossible Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 I have NOW. It's good but not something I can listen to very often. I like it though! Quote
GA Russell Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Jim, I've never heard of them before, and they sound very appealling. Did Abercrombie join them right after leaving Dreams? Quote
JSngry Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Posted March 25, 2013 This was a few years before Dreams. Quote
GA Russell Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 Of course. I had the first Dreams album in 1971, I think. Quote
Noj Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 I have NOW. It's good but not something I can listen to very often. I like it though! Same boat. I would have guessed it to be their entire output. Quote
