Rabshakeh Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 Stan Kenton – Sketches On Standards This one you can certainly identify the soloists. Still many of the same issues with not really swinging though, but I quite enjoyed this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 Stanley Turrentine and the Three Sounds “The Blue Hour, Volume 2” TOCJ Japan cd I see many who think this second volume (a “Lost Session”) is inferior to the released “Blue Hour” . . . but I like it nearly as much.

Glad to ,see some big band music here. Thanks 👍😁 Just hit me recently. I want the colour and complexity of big band charts at the moment. Don't know why. Edit: I should add that all the Kenton today has made me more unpopular with my partner than months of Arthur Doyle and Albert Ayler could have done.

Depending on my mood, I sometimes like this second batch of tunes more. The released "Blue Hour" is excellent late night blues to wind down with. It can be a bit sleepy if the mood doesn't fit.

I want the colour and complexity of big band charts at the moment. Don't know why. One of the true "classics" with Woody. Have the original Capitol vinyl. BTW beside Kenton Woody is a great part of my total big band stock. Other great examples are Shorty Rogers, Buddy Rich, Bob Florence, Basie & Duke. Cant name them all but big band is a fine cathegory of jazz for me. Edited September 3, 2023 by jazzcorner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted September 3, 2023 Report Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers “Gypsy Folk Tales” Roulette Japan SHM-CD Has that 'seventies jazz recording sound, but it’s definitely a Jazz Messengers album! Sound is much clearer here than on a previous European 2 cd set I had of the Roulette material. Alto Saxophone – Bobby Watson Bass – Dennis Irwin Drums – Art Blakey Tenor Saxophone – David Schnitter Trumpet – Valery Ponomarev Walter Davis, Jr. - piano Edited September 3, 2023 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
