Heard with Dizzy Gillespie Quartet in summer 1983. The personnel was Diz, Ed Cherry, Mike Howell and veteran drummer J.C. Heard. Dizzy had played and recorded with Heard as early as 1946 I think, so this was kind of a reunion. I remember the first tune was Manteca, really hot....

Rabshakeh Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) New Horizens by Sounds of Liberation (Dogtown, 1972). Inspired by the Byard Lancaster chat a few weeks back. One of his and Khan Jamal's best. Sadly, not on the original vinyl (I'd recommend a stiff drink before checking that one on Discogs).

felser Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 Certainly my favorite of the Murray albums done with a standard p/b/d quartet that I've heard (plenty I haven't heard). I also really like "Shakill's Warrior" and some of the octet recordings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played it a couple of times since - this and the Live in New York duet with Mr. Wadud. It's really fantastic stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted February 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 Hemphill did not make it out of the 20th Century. Most of his contemporaries did/have. Name recognition and marketplace visibility/viability being what it is, I hope/pray that his body of work is not slowly being forgotten, It's too substantial to let that happen.

My favorite Murray records in the standard p / b / d format are probably Morning Song and Like a Kiss That Never Ends. For me, just as much as Murray, John Hicks makes those engines go.

With Wheeler's and Priester's broad sounds, it feels like an expanded -- almost "orchestral" -- version of Conference of the Birds.

Two of my favourite Murray DIWs alongside the some others - the duet with Graves, the quintet with Newton and the Big Band date with Butch Morris. And, the bass clarinet album. In fact the DIW run was pretty good all round now I think about it. I do remember them being costly in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work with a woman who went to Sumner High School in St. Louis with Hicks, Lester Bowie, and Tina Turner in the 50's. That was some talented school.

jazzbo Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Miles Davis "Miles Smiles" 20 bit Sony LP facsimile cd. I am playing this one because I am very familiar with how it sounds and I'm breaking in a few fuse in my P15 power regenerator. This fuse I assumed had been lost in the mail. I ordered it from Japan in April last year and it arrived Saturday! I guess the pandemic was the cause. . . I was reimbursed for it about six months ago and that vendor is no longer on eBay. I love this album. . . have for more than four decades now. . . it’s funny to think that I’ve had this music in my life that long.
