Chombo was one of those guys that if you don't get "it", you might not get it. He's not the only one, but damn, CHOMBO!!!! [...] and Charlie Palmieri...overlooked at one's own risk, imo. Need to listen to more Chombo. Re: Charlie Palmieri -- Absolutely. I especially dig CP when he starts playing organ... like he does on his brother's Vamonos Pal Monte. VERY unique.

I never saw Benny Wallace live but it seems he was very much in Action than.  But I must admit I haven´t heard until now about Graham Collier or any of the sideman listed on that album. you say from the 70´s , well that was about my time, but maybe I listend to other jazz artists then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) 32 minutes ago, soulpope said: Perennial favorite .... Yes. Looking back on it fifty years later, it's clear that something happened to Solal around 1970, when he released this LP. He'd been an fantastic pianist for a long time, but "suddenly" he's an amazing artist. A master, even. Or at least that's the impression I get from listening to the records. Of course, records don't tell the whole story. But they do tell a story.  Edited February 6, 2020 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
