Justin V Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 3 hours ago, HutchFan said: Scott Colley - The Magic Line (Arabesque) trio with Chris Potter & Bill Stewart For the decade or so that Arabesque was in the jazz game, they released some outstanding music. Arabesque still releases jazz, just not as frequently. The most recent Arabesque Jazz release was from November of last year. They have an impressive catalog. Now playing: Stone Alliance - Live in Amsterdam: The only Grossman I have and the only recording I have with Don Alias on trap drums. Fun, muscular stuff. Quote

Have you heard their self-titled debut? Very good stuff. NP: Ravi Coltrane - From the Round Box (RCA, 2000) Edited July 11, 2019 by HutchFan Quote
mikeweil Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Currently re-listening to a lot of Cal Tjader for the revisions of the disco for the upcoming second edition of S. Duncam Reid's biography. Quote
HutchFan Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 On the way home from work: Remarkably assured second record. With Joe Henderson. Quote
duaneiac Posted July 12, 2019 Report Posted July 12, 2019 I was listening to this CD last night. Shortly after dusk, while the sky was still rusty gold, but with darkening tints of blue leading up to the oncoming indigo skies, when the air was still warm, but there was a cooling breeze which stirred the trees, right then is when this version of "Summertime" came on: One could not have asked for a better soundtrack for that moment in time . . .

Gheorghe Posted July 12, 2019 Report Posted July 12, 2019 one of my favourite Miles records. It´s so great. I think I first got acquainted to it thru the sampler "Greatest Hits" which has "Valentine" and "All Blues". Incredible that fast Version of "All Blues". Quote

Sarah Vaughan is always great , but what I noticed most is the "Heads of State". I have both albums of them, since each of the players, especially Al Foster as one of my favourite drummers, they all are fantastic musicians. I had hoped they will do a third album Quote
HutchFan Posted July 12, 2019 Report Posted July 12, 2019 More from this quartet: These guys sound like a band -- not just four guys playing together. A distinctive, elliptical sound; it comes at you sideways. Quote
