jazzbo Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 An Evening with Earl Hines" Vogue 2 LP set, record 1 Wow. This is indeed an amazing record set I have not played in some time and that's a shame. Hines having a good old time with great support. Bass – Hank Young Drums – Bert Dahlander Guitar – Tiny Grimes Lead Vocals – Earl Hines, Marva Josie Piano – Earl Hines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Those Vogue 2LP sets were the business ! I’ve still got loads of them. Not forgetting also the Clifford Brown ‘Complete Paris Collection’ on 3LPs which they did. £3.99 back in the day !

jazzbo Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 I believe it, this is a very nice pressing of this, have never heard vinyl of the US version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 Sheila Jordan "Comes Love: Lost Session 1960" An interesting release--better singing than on a number of albums of the time and the sound is decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabshakeh Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 Vijay Iyer - Panoptic Modes (Red Giant, 2001) Listening to this early Iyer I am struck by how much more enjoyable his playing used to be. Whilst I am almost always impressed by Iyer's records, I am not sure that I have found them "enjoyable" for a while. They seem to be getting weightier with each year.

I've not enjoyed rather than admired an Iyer release since before 'Break Stuff' except of course the duo with Wadada. (I'm not one to countenance the 'curse of Manfred Eicher' but it's making me wonder) Maybe I should break out the Fieldwork albums for a dusting down. They were great, maybe the still are Two musicians I've enjoyed apart from each other coming together very nicely here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a mix of Eicher's clammy touch with the effect of age and becoming an older statesman - something that normally doesn't affect jazz as much as other genres, but does seem to have gotten to Iyer. 15 minutes ago, mjazzg said: Two musicians I've enjoyed apart from each other coming together very nicely here I don't know these two.

I don't know these two. Would you start here or elsewhere? Yes, a good place to start with them. It gives a nice flavour of them individually. Musson is a recent discovery for me, she plays with Pat Thomas and released a very good solo recording Dreamsing not so long ago. Brice can be heard to good effect on his quintet albums as a writer as well as player. His duos with Tom Challenger are worth hearing too. I think Musson, Brice and Challenger are all worth following. A youngish (from where I look at least) generation nicely established. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 Prompted by Kenny Wheeler discussion on another thread: The Maritime Jazz Orchestra featuring Kenny Wheeler, John Taylor & Norma Winstone - Now And Now Again (Justin Time, 2002) Norma Winstone's voice. What a beautiful and expressive instrument! She kills me -- especially when she's paired with such terrific composers as Kenny Wheeler or Michael Garrick.

I remember seeing Norma singing with Wheeler and Orchestra during Kenny’s 75th Birthday tour. Also saw them a few times with Azimuth.
