Kevin Bresnahan Posted March 25 Report Posted March 25 8 hours ago, jazzbo said: It took me a while to get around to the ECM titles of Dave Holland. I heard a few when they were first released and they just didn’t click with me, but the past few years I realize how vital and interesting they are. This one I like a lot! Dave Holland Quintet “Extended Play: Live at Birdland” ECM 2 cd set, disc 1 Chris Potter – soprano, alto and tenor saxophones Robin Eubanks – trombone Steve Nelson – vibraphone, marimba Billy Kilson – drums Dave Holland – double-bass Dave Holland Quintet recorded at the Birdland jazz club over four days in November 2001 and released by ECM in 2003 40 I managed to catch Dave's quintet for several years in a row at the Regattabar in Cambridge, MA and they never failed to amaze me. Year in and year out, the music was incredible. I was so bummed out when Dave broke that group up. Quote

ghost of miles Posted March 26 Report Posted March 26 Still working my way through this one, with V. 17 (Saba/MPS) yet to be opened, and my local store now hipping me to an imminent V. 18 Jazz Behind the Iron Curtain V 1 & 2 coming in early summer. Such a fantastic series and glad that it continues. Quote

Ron Carter “Foursight: The Complete Stockholm Tapes” In & Out Records cd 1 Bass – Ron Carter Drums – Payton Crossley Piano – Renee Rosnes Tenor Saxophone – Jimmy Greene I enjoy the music here. I have it some of it on the LP version issued on Record Store Day. I managed to snag one of the signed copies. I was a bit bummed that this LP didn't come with a download card. I was even more bummed when the CDs came out and two of the tracks on the LP release that were supposed to be "exclusive" came out on a CD version shortly afterward. And truly, even if these are alternate takes of these two tunes, then why release a double CD set titled, "Foursight: The Complete Stockholm Tapes"? Quote
jazzbo Posted Wednesday at 12:17 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 12:17 PM (edited) I have no experience with the LP set as I rarely pick up modern LP releases, and generally ignore any LPs on Record Store Day. "Exclusive" to any release from a record company seems to just mean "right now this is the only place to get it." A day later it may be a different story! The timings are different on those two tracks between LPs and cd, but without comparing those could be for extraneous reasons. Anyway, I really enjoy the two cd set.

Zensor ZS 135 [Germany 1993] Seems to be very interesting. I had heard Sun Ra in earlier years. Here is from the tour I saw live, but I had been a Sun Ra freak much earlier and still am, though I don´t think I have more then four or five records. Edited Wednesday at 01:34 PM by Gheorghe Quote
