Gheorghe Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 1 hour ago, GA Russell said: Ginza Samba! I´ve never heard Cal Tjader but I remember an album "Stan Getz-Cal Tjader" was on that strongly Mingus bound french jazz record label "America Records". I had heard a little about Stan Getz (I must say more the pre 1950 stuff than the bossa nova that is not really my thing) so I didn´t have no idea who is Cal Tjader, the name didn´t sound really american to me. There was some exotic albums like also one "Gerry Mulligan with Jimmy Witherspoon", but the rest was the jazz I heard (Mingus, Roach, Bird, Diz and so on) 15 hours ago, HutchFan said: I don´t know what´s Acid Jazz, but Bernard "Pretty" Purdie was a great drummer, someone in the category of Billy Cobham or Alphonse Mouzon, anyway great and he does great things on a very strange Diz record from the late 70´s of Diz just with Toots Thielemans, and Bernard Purdie. So what is Acid Jazz, never heard that word, and how did good old Prestige record more modern music of the 70´s ? 11 hours ago, jazzcorner said: Discovery DS-836 - June Christy / Lou Levy Sextet " Impromptu" - rec. 1977 - Emgineer: Gordon Shyrock I never had heard June Christy but how this personnel reads it must be a gas, especially if there is a singer not just bein selfish and don´t give solo space to the others (like Ella in the later days did), but with a regular good jazz combo. Lou Levy, he was not so well known here over in old Europe or Eastern Europe, but he was tops, he was just maybe some milimetru-groove near Bud Powell so much piano that nice guy could play. Saw him with Art Pepper, because he had replaced Pepper´s regular group, who got stranded somewhere, but it was a great replacement, don´t remember the bass and ddrums, but remember Lou Levy.... 18 hours ago, jazzbo said: Miles Davis “Kind of Blue” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 2023 (mono disc) Sure I Milestone in Miles´ career , I wonder how much spinning it still get´s . I still must have my old LP somewhere in the shelves, but strange to say, I had a wrong start with this album, since I had heard before the versions with Herbie, Ron, Wayne and above all Tony (All Blues, So What) and was disappointed by the much slower and more quiet studio recordings. As I say, I had not the best start with it, and liked Herbie more than Bill Evans, and Tony more than Jimmy Cobb..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe, you can see the definition of "Acid Jazz" here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_jazz The "Legends of Acid Jazz" series repackaged soul-jazz and jazz-funk music originally recorded in the late-60s and early-70s for Prestige. Typically, CDs in the series contain 2 complete LPs. Whatever you might want to call it, the music is fabulous -- if you enjoy those jazz sub-genres.

Peter Friedman Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 Ella in 1951 sounds wonderful. I really like this album more than many of Ella's later recordings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
