So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[jazzbo]

I managed to sneak this one in, the new MQA/UHQCD or "Duke Ellington and John Coltrane" from Impulse! Japan.

Sounds awesome!

And followed it with this:

Miles Davis "Four and More" MoFiSACD

[Peter Friedman]

[John Tapscott]

[HutchFan]

[JSngry]

a working band, not a project, unless making a living and creating a legacy is a project, and sure, it is.

[Balladeer]

Enrico Pieranunzi, Marc Johnson, Joey Baron - Play Morricone 1 & 2 (CamJazz)

and then for something completely different  . . .

[HutchFan]

Art Farmer - Brass Shout and Aztec Suite (Blue Note, originally UA)
I love the big fat bottom that Don Butterfield's tuba brings to Brass Shout.  I guess Benny Golson deserves credit for the arrangements -- and Percy Heath too for the way that he and Butterfield dance around one another so beautifully in the basement.

 

and

Miles Davis Quintet - Live in Europe 1969: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 2 (Sony Legacy)
Disc 2

Incredible.  All of them.  But Wayne!  Phew!!!

Art Davis, Elvin Jones, and presumably God, all in the same place at the same time doing the same thing.

and yet...

A Groove day is a GOOD day.

I lack the perspective to be able to do much more than "appreciate" this one. although I certainly DO appreciate it.

However, as with so many things, Stan Kenton should have been getting THIS guy to write for him in the 70s. It's really interesting writing in more than a few spots. But the the solos happen, and that's where I drift off. Again, I lack the perspective to really get it then.

Currently listening to this via YouTube - much better than I expected!

Some while ago I was listening to this

and now to to this

So Quebec from the beginnings of BN and the early sixties, I think. And he performs in both with the same emotion and forcefulness.

True.

Disc 3: This set arrived today and this disc looks like it has been through a wood chipper.  Here's hoping it plays and rips okay.
