Teasing the Korean Posted October 16, 2015 Report Posted October 16, 2015 Generally speaking, how are Dizzy's 1960s sessions with Lalo Schifrin regarded? The main ones I know of are Gillespiana and Carnegie Hall on Verve; New Wave and French Riviera on Philips; and The New Continent on Limelight. Are there others I should be aware of? Aside from Lalo's brilliant arrangements, they get into some interesting grooves that mesh bossa with middle eastern-tinged feels. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 An Electrifying Evening is a fine record. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted October 17, 2015 Author Report Posted October 17, 2015 Yes, thanks, I forgot about that one. Quote
marcello Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 This one is very good also and has recently been reissued with more tracks. Gillespiana is the masterpiece, though. Quote
king ubu Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 I like the band alright, the twofer with "Gillespiana" and "The Carnegie Hall Concert" is my favourite, followed by "An Electric Evening". Quote
CJ Shearn Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Then there is "Free Ride" from the 70's on Pablo, but that may not count Quote
paul secor Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 An Electrifying Evening is a fine record. Some of my favorite Dizzy and I love the band too. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted October 21, 2015 Author Report Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Any love for this one? It is basically a Lalo Schifrin album featuring Dizzy Gillespie: Edited October 21, 2015 by Teasing Quote
