Peter Friedman Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 This CD has, perhaps, the best playing I have ever heard from Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis. Though I  much enjoy the Johnny Griffin-Lockjaw Davis albums, the context on this Basie small group recording strikes me as right in Jaws wheelhouse. He is not really a bebop oriented player, and thrives in a mainstream swing context. No Jaws fan should be without this CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was aged 17! On listening to this album for the first time I was struck by how sensationally good on alto the 22-year-old Tony Coe was! For a long time I thought I was listening to Bruce Turner! Coe was a great discovery by Lyttelton. I think I remember reading that Humph rescued the youthful Coe from some sort of trouble with the authorities.

OliverM Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Borrowed from the library a week or so before the big closure. 3CDs are very varied (geographically and in time) with often interesting selections, as could be expected from Tercinet.

jazzbo Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) I'm going to absorb this set slowly. I'm only on the first show, second disc. Kudos to the Plangent Process and mastering.

jazzbo Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Yesterday I had "vibes." I started my listening to this cd by Betty Roche "Take the A Train" on Solid Records/Bethlehem originally. It has Eddie Costa on vibes which is an automatic reason to buy any album. And I moved from there to Gary Burton's "New Vibes in Town" on Sony Japan cd, and then moved on to Jay Hoggard's "Fountain" on Muse cd. Had to revisit Betty today though. . . Betty Roche "Take the A Train" Edited March 25, 2020 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 I really like John Tchicai, although I will probably never learn to spell "Tchicai" by memory. No matter, that guy could play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duaneiac Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Just couldn't really connect with this one, although I did like Christian McBride's "West Philly Tone Poem". A ticket stub tucked inside the liner notes shows that I saw the McCoy Tyner Quintet at Yoshi's on Wed. Feb 1, 2006 (10 PM show only for $20 -- such a deal!). Don't recall any details about the show, unfortunately. Have you Becheted today? You'll be glad you did! It amazes me that what we hear here is, due to the recording technology limitations of the time, only a rough approximation of what Sidney Bechet's playing actually sounded like -- and yet this music still kills me with its vigor and cockiness and sense of fun and adventure. I don't know if I could have withstood hearing the full power and majesty of Sidney Bechet's playing live and in person. It'd like be enough to make a body tremble.
