Gheorghe Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Really a treasure. Even after the departure of Dolphy and Jakie Byard (Byard at least temporarly) this is highly recommended. Maybe it´s one of Mingus´ thinnest instrumentations, only a quartet, but it has a very very high level of energy. Never heard Cliff Jordan more powerful than on this, and maybe Fables of Faubus (here titled "New Fables") has the most exiting bass solo I ever heard......., and Dannie Richmond is really hot, and not to forget the interesting choice of pianist Jane Getz....... , former Mingus man John Handy sittin in on Fables, doing a very bluesy solo....

Rare example of one of their releases being reissued on the ‘Music For Pleasure’ label and thereby purchasable at Woolworths ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks or the comment Jeff. My memory has failed me completely here. Well worth pulling out. But then this board is great for this sort of thing. I've pulled out dozens of recordings inspired by this topic over the years which would otherwise still be languishing on my shelves unplayed for goodness knows how long.

Referentzhunter Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) Some records are so complex i have to listen twice. This is a very experimental but good recording. Edited March 19, 2019 by Referentzhunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first was in '57 in Leeds Town Hall with Lyttelton's controversial (among the traddies) new band with a saxophone section of Tony Coe, Jimmy Skidmore and Joe Temperley. I saw them again in the same venue touring with Jimmy Rushing and later Sister Rosetta Tharpe. 2 hours ago, sidewinder said: That LP must have been one of the Tempo label’s best sellers, TAP 22 I think.
