So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[Gheorghe]

I had the BN-LA double album "Paul Chambers-John Coltrane High Step"  with the complete Westcoast Session (Quartet with Trane, Philly J.J. and Kenny Drew),  ony parts of the "Whims of Chambers" which actually was the BN record, and the three tracks for the Transition label.

Later I purchased the "Whims of Chambers" and then the japanes Cardboard of "Chamber´s Music" which features also as bonus tracks the three Transition tunes .

I always have loved those strong titles, wonderful music.

Then, in the second half of the 70´s I was just at the beginning of my career as a jazz fan (and part time player) and didn´t know much more than Miles and Mingus. So, when I saw that double LP with those players I had on the Miles "Steamin" (Trane, Paul, Philly J.J.) I said to myself this must be good if it´s the "Davis Crew"

I am in a Mabern mood and hadn't listened to this in a few years.  I'd love to know whatever became of Keel.

On that Flory album, Al Cohn's "No Thanks" has an exceptional shout chorus.

A very relaxed date in good sound, David. (Extra material is in less good sound. . . but that's extra stuff). 

I was in the mood for more long tall Dexter, so I'm listening to "Live at Carnegie Hall" from Dexter Gordon "Complete Columbia Albums" box set.

What did you think of this recording?   I didn't make it past the first tune.

It sounded like a throw-back to the 1970s, a mix of synths and voices that was going on then. It's a if Byrd's A New Perspective and McCann's Invitation to Openness had a lovechild, this it what it would sound like. However, I like those kinds of things, so I enjoyed it immensely.

I love Anita's singing (a lovely person too), Abene's charts, and it's some of the best Gary Burton I know.
