Justin V Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 39 minutes ago, duaneiac said: This compilation includes a nearly 13 minute version of "Europa" which, A) reminds one of how beautiful a melody that is when just played "as is"; brother,if you can't get busy with that melody as your background music, then perhaps it's time to set out the "going out of business" sign, and B) is quite the showcase for Eric Alexander. I just bought that one recently. It's crazy how the first 6 tracks haven't seen CD reissue otherwise. The first three have some great George Coleman. To be honest, 'Europa', which has a surprisingly loose Alexander, is a little too smooth for my liking. Quote

On another day and given a different listen under a different frame of mind, I'd likely agree with you. This time around though, that track worked well for me. Quote

jazzbo Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 Randy Weston, "Blue Moses" CTI Supreme Series Blu-Spec cd from Japan. This apparently was not a session Randy wanted to make this way (with electric piano) but I've always loved it, for decades on LP and then several cd versions. Quote
