Horace Silver Trio Blue Note CD. Safari and Yeah are the same tune, yes? Feather and Blumenthal liner notes don’t seem to acknowledge this.

It´s my favourite Curtis Fuller record. 
In my youth I had the wish to gather at least one record from all those heroes of mine. Let´s say my first jazz was the First Miles Davis Quintet and sure I had records from each of the members, let´s say "Blue Trane", "Whims of Chambers" "Blues for Dracula" and "Garlands of Red" or so, and sure when I heard "Blue Trane" I heard Curtis Fuller and got that "Opener". That´s how I bought records....

Indeed a great event. But somehow I remember that Mingus was not very happy with the results and later said "too many friends". 
But as an ultimate Mingus Fan in my youth I sure had that double CD. 

But somehow, from all listening I have the feeling that the Mingus from 1970-1973 still was not the Mingus with all that power, especially on his own bass. 
Ironically I found the bands from 1975-77 much sharper, especially because Richmond was back, and Mingus was playing more of those exiting solos up into the highest register of the bass. 
I never will forget his solo on "For Harry Carney" in summer 1977, where he played that pizzicato up into the register of a violin and back to the deep deep notes, the best school to learn to play the bass fiddle....

Allen Lowe, “Louis Armstrong’s America Volume 1” disc 2

 

 

Fascinating set. Like a bizarro universe at times, but truly involving.

The Three Suns – Fever And Smoke

Bags and Monty Alexander work extremely well together. This is among my many favorite Milt Jackson recordings.
