BillF Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 2 hours ago, soulpope said: 👍European Rhythm Machine👍.... I saw them at Ronnie Scott's. Perhaps they weren't on form - the music wasn't very exciting. More exciting was the word that went round the club that the woman with the kids on the front row was Charlie Parker's widow. And of course she was! 1 hour ago, soulpope said: Yesterday late evening .... : Frankie Dunlop (!!) .... This may be getting repetitive, but I also saw the Monk quartet with Frankie Dunlop. It was in the Free Trade Hall, Manchester and there was difficulty at first at getting Monk out on stage (Robin Kelly wrongly locates this in Milan) and an awkward-looking John Ore was sent out to play two lengthy bass solos alone until the maestro could be persuaded to budge.

Shrdlu Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 I played for years with a pianist who toured America for six months opposite Monk. His wife said she sat on Rouse's knee. It was great playing with that pianist, because he knew how to play all the Monk tunes properly, with all the phrases in the right place.

Gheorghe Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Here a lesser known Mingus album: Recorded after the European tour of spring 1964. Byard had left the group temporarly, replaced by female pianist Jane Getz. Some backgroud info about her playing for a short period with Mingus see Gene Santoro´s Mingus bio "Myself when I´m real". Here this is really a very far out playing. Even more into "free" than with Dolphy in Europe. Fanscinating those tempo changes. Interesting also the changed names of the tunes: Faubles of Faubus is here "New Fables" (with the great John Handy sittin in), and Meditations on Integration is here "Meditations for a Pair of Wire Cutters". Here we have also Jane Getz soloing, very fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing you mentioned Dunlop, I should add that his drumming was really noticeable - it had a real bounce to it and was different. And you could hear it in the Free Trade Hall with its terrible acoustics, which means that it wasn't particularly loud. The first set at that concert had been by the Jazz Messengers with Morgan, Shorter and Timmons. Poor guys - they just couldn't be heard. Blakey's thunderous drumming in that hall drowned them out.

duaneiac Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Disc 1 of 2. Includes a lot of false starts and incomplete takes, but it's all music by the usual Condon crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
