Rabshakeh Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Back to work today, and blasting out Norman Granz' Jam Session #1. However it might have been perceived at the time, I think the record has aged extremely well. Really upbeat and emotionally impactful teenage hormone jazz (if I can call it that without disrespect). It's doing a great job at resetting my mood. Edited May 4, 2021 by Rabshakeh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Referentzhunter Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 6 hours ago, Gheorghe said: Well as I said, someone let me listen to her Round Midnight because they knew that I might know many many versions of Roundmidnite and what I think about this one. As I said I found it interesting . I´m sure she was a great singer, but I must admit I haven´t listened much to other music than jazz in the last 45 years. So I can´t say much about popmusic, rockmusic and easy music an classical music. But as I repeat, I liked that Round Midnight because it is associated to something I know very well. So I can´t really contribute to running threads about musicians who are from other genres (Bob Dylan corner, James Morrison corner, Classical discussion and so on...... I didn´t want to interfere, being a nobody if it´s about non jazz music, but remembered that I had listened to her Round Midnight and wanted to say this. Thanks. Gh. i totally understand now. yep.

jazzbo Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) "Duke Ellington's Far East Suite" Sony Japan cd It's odd. I used to avoid this one so that it wouldn't become "too familiar." That was probably good because now I find so much to love in this recording! John Lamb is so bitchin' here with Duke as he always is.

To put it bluntly, this is a perfect example of someone swinging his a$$ off! I saw Mulligan's 1980 Concert Band in concert. A little different than the 1960 version, no big "'star" musicians like Zoot or Clark Terry or Brookmeyer, but still swinging with Gerry's wonderful comp/arrangements and his great baritone playing, still understated as far as typical big bands go, but still really good, perhaps for that very reason.
