HutchFan Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 via YT: Hampton Hawes - Northern Windows (Prestige, 1974) Hawes' one (?) collaboration with producer David Axelrod. ...

One word reaction: Meh.  That record got a lot of good reviews at the time, but I'm with you, it never got my ear. But it did gain and still has traction in some circles. So...there's something there, I guess. I've got no problems with Hawes' "electric" period per se, but this one seems maybe more style than substance? Can't fault a man for trying, I suppose.

I think he was the pianist in summer 83, when I saw a Messenger Group with I think I remember Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, Jean Touissant, Johnny O´Neal and Lonnie Plaxico ? I remember that event because Dizzy sat in for "Wee", (but only scatting, no tp maybe due to contractual reasons). In the course of a ballad medley I think Johnny O´Neal played "Summertime", a very fine version. After that I haven´t seen him any more here in Austria. Some more Johnny O'Neal:  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not drawn into it like I am with most of Hawes' records. He almost feels like a secondary character, rather than the star of the show.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Lee Konitz and Rich Perry - RichLee (Steeplechase, 1998) I'm interested whether anyone can think of a better deployment of a shellsuit in jazz than here? Konitz demolishes his sparring partner in polyester terms, giving him a crucial psychological edge when it comes to the secondary issue of the saxophone.

Rabshakeh Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) The John Dankworth Quartet / The Ronnie Scott Boptet - Bop at Club 11, very early British bop recorded live in 1949. Funny to hear how different trumpeter Dennis Rose sounds to the other featured soloists - almost as if bebop had just hit as he was getting to grips with Armstrong, and he wasn't sure whether to make the jump. Then on to: Rolf Kühn Quintett - Solarius (Amiga) This one's a great record.
