I must admit I bought it mostly for Fats Navarro , but listen also to the great Roy Eldrigde organization, with the wonderful Flip Phillips. And dig how Eldridge on "How High the Moon" in the outing "Ornithology". Roy was so much ahead of his time. He was the natural link from swing to bop, wasn´t he ? And talking about jazz of the forties, that´s what I´m listening to right now. A lot of great music, vintage bop. Quote
jazzbo Posted February 15, 2020 Report Posted February 15, 2020 Miles Davis, "Live/Evil" Sony SACD (stereo/quad--stereo layer) disc 2, again. . . because I love Bartz on this and it was still near the transport. Followed by Freddie Hubbard "Breaking Point" Blue Note/Analogue Productions SACD. Clifford Jarvis gives this a unique feel. . . . Quote

I love this music so much, have since the 2 LP set was first released. Then on to Flora Purim "Stories to Tell," Milestone LP. Another favorite from the 'seventies on. Just a wonderful album. Pretty sure that Live/Evil was my first Miles album in the early 70s when I started getting into jazz. Took a while to 'understand' it, but became one of my favorites, too. I still have the CD, too ... and maybe the vinyl. I like that Flora too, and was a huge fan back in her Milestone years. I like Butterfly Dreams a bit better, but she was a real force when she emerged with the first RTF. Quote

JSngry Posted February 15, 2020 Author Report Posted February 15, 2020 Prysock/Basie - supreme and succinct, with just enough Jaws to not just hit the bullseye, but to go all the way through it. Apparently it found a market? Sure hope so! I mean, hey, this is totally what it is, if you know what I mean. Grown folks' music. No whining, no angst, no reveling in the suffering, just matter-of-fact truth about it. Is Arthur Prysock falling off the radar, like Billy Eckstine? That should not be allowed to happen. Quote
JSngry Posted February 16, 2020 Author Report Posted February 16, 2020 The CD includes the three cuts released by Old Town as part of their reciprocity agreement with Verve. They might be the best of the bunch! These guys be sayin' it loud. Quote
