Phil Woods plays clarinet on one track ("Adios Nonino"). It's very pretty. I don't think I have Woods playing clarinet anywhere else. gregmo This is a beautiful CD. I bought it when it first came out as a fundraiser for that Classical Action: Performing Arts Against AIDS group. Mark Murphy's performance of the title track is one of the greatest performances he ever recorded -- very moving. For me, the surprise standout track was "Little Prayer" by Dave Catney, who passed away from AIDS complications not long after this CD was made. It's a beautiful song of loss and remembrance which, unfortunately, is now all too relevant once again. There was a subsequent CD issued by the same organization Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Here are three double albums from the late 70s, when there was again more interest in acoustic jazz . Those three albums were very much discussed in my jazz friend circles during the last year of high school. They came out around the same time 1978 and the most beautiful thing was that the musicians could be heard live on all bigger jazz festivals. Though I couldn´t see the Milestone Jazzstars in this formation (they were together only for US tour if i remember right), there was enough "Milestone Jazzstars" at the Velden Jazzfestival summer 1979, when Joe Henderson , Sonny Rollins and Ron Carter were scheduled, each one with his own group.

jazzbo Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Rita Reys "Rita A Go Go" Philips I ordered one of these "Five Original Albums" or Reys because it had her Jobim album which I wanted to hear, and there were four others. This one is interesting. I am used to hearing English spoken with this Dutch accent I guess from my years in Swaziland; my wife says she sings "weird" but it doesn't seem weird to me. Very vivid sound in this live recording! The songs are very much "of a time and place." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its one of the 8 PJ albums with the coverart of West Coast resident artists which made these paintings especially for Richard Bock's label.

HutchFan Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Josh Roseman - New Constellations: Live in Vienna (Enja/Accurate, 2007) with Peter Apfelbaum, Ambrose Akinmusire, Marvin Sewell, and others Jazz meets ska/reggae meets electronica. Not for purists -- but I like it. I think Roseman is very adept at cross-fertilization. The we-can-go-anywhere aspects of this music remind me of The Roots, with whom Roseman has recorded. 4 minutes ago, Bluesnik said: Yes, those covers are extraordinary. Agreed!

Apart from Evans, of course. A very, very nice trio. 5 minutes ago, HutchFan said: Jazz meets ska/reggae meets electronica. Not for purists -- but I like it.
