HutchFan Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Muhal Richard Abrams featuring Malachi Favors - Sightsong (Black Saint, 1976) Piano-bass duos are cool. This one is a longtime favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Flim & The BB's – Big Notes I'd never heard of this bunch until recently doing a run over historic jazz charts. Deservedly forgotten music. I guess that it is the 1980s version of those stereo test LPs sold in the early hi fi era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not difficult jazz by any stretch but it's light & easy-going. I don't hear smooth jazz but it's not anywhere near hardbop either. Dick Oatts is the player that keeps my interest here. The keyboards/electronics don't do much for me but Ive heard much worse on some smooth jazz dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rostasi Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) It's not music. It's the soundtrack to a fish market in the 4th dimension. Lovely. Edited October 9, 2023 by rostasi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted October 10, 2023 Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 Woke up to the sad news and kept watching news all day on and off. My last choice tonight I was seeking for an involving escape. The beauty of the source material and my thoughts drawn into the interesting arrangements and solos did the trick of calming my mind.

And there's lots that should not really have made it to record. E.g. the track that is just the group playing the same thing over and over on different synth settings.

I had heard Woody just around that time (1979) but without those stars. I liked what I heard, it was the last set of a three days festival. Remember still ,that I went there to see cats like Joe Henderson, Ron Carter, Elvin Jones, Sonny Rollins, Larry Coryell, Alphonse Mouzon, and even Chet Baker, but as a young longhaired hipster I was a bit sceptical about what would be "Woody Herman Herd". I mean I didn´t know, if an "old, all white Big Band" would be compatible with my tastes and conceptions then". But though I found it a bit straight and the attempts to play Chick Corea´s tunes sounded a bit ridicoulous to me, I nevertheless enjoyed it. So I bought this album, mostly because of the guests..... 3 hours ago, dougcrates said: Usually I don´t listen much to those typical mainstream Blue Notes that came out in the 60´s . All those organ things, all those boogaloo things, not my taste, not the instrument, not the groove, but THIS one I like, because never did I see a frontline of non horn players, I mean organ, guitar, vibes. And the Hank Mobley tune "Turnaround" is the best from that groove I ever heard. I mean , I find it much much much better than Morgan´s "Sidewinder" and so on. Though my BN tastes are the Wayne Shorter, Sam Rivers, Jackie McLean, Elvin Jones, Freddie Hubbard things, I still like "Let ém roll", if I want to listen to some more easy music.
