Discs 3 & 4

Robert Dick - Third Stone from the Sun (1993)

Just such a great record. I've been mixing up this and some Fathead Newman today, so it's been a flute epic.

They did some really strange artwork at CTI.  Good music, though...

interesting to contrast Criss with Sonny Stitt, in the light of the recent Stitt v Gordon thread. Criss is another player who got tarred with the Charlie Parker imitator brush. He ends up putting album after album of fluff tunes in the 70s. But unlike Stitt, you always get the sense that he really feels it.

2 different flute players for sure.

Coltrane is so great !!! 

Only on one tune where they used another drummer than Elvin, the drummer does not fit to Trane´s great solo, you could imagine how this would have sounded with Elvin. 

Ellington has a unique piano style. It´s more an "arranger´s style" maybe in the way Basie did it, or later Tadd Dameron did it , or on ballads it´s a bit more impressionistic. That "bell" sound on the intro of "Sentimental". 

The best on piano is Ellingtons comping on "The Feeling of Jazz". That´s some really great chords.
