HutchFan Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) Lew Soloff - Hanalei Bay (Electric Bird/ProJazz, 1985) The rhythm section on this disc -- Gil Evans (el p), Pete Levin (synth), Mark Egan (el b), and Adam Nussbaum (d) -- is drawn from Evans' Monday Night Orchestra, as heard on the recording above. Soloff played in that band too, of course. 37 minutes ago, soulpope said: Quite fascinating music, marred a bit by Hiram "The Butcher" Bullock's presence/playing .... Hmm... I've never had much of a reaction to Bullock, one way or the other. (My biggest association: Him playing with the "Late Night with David Letterman" band.) What is it about Bullock's playing bothers you? Incidentally, he also appears on Hanalei Bay. Edited October 28, 2021 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabshakeh Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Kenny Graham's Afro-Cubists Volume One - Mango Walk (Esquire, 1951-3) Nice one, which I don't own but listened to on the YouTubes after reading a reference to it in a blog. From the looks of it, it was a London bebop band, with West African percussionists, playing Afro-Cuban bebop. What I heard is very witty and really enjoyable.

Too loud, too intense, simply way too much rock-oriented presence .... in general I'm not an aficionado of electric guitars, but here in places he dictates the sound of the band .... f.i. Ryo Kawasaki or John Beck had a much better intergrated role in this band .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 Tom Rainey Obbligato - Untucked in Hannover (Intakt, 2021) First listen to this one. I had high expectations due to the players, but I thought it very disappointing: despite some good solos, I found it a bit too diffuse, serious and without much drive, which I think afflicts a lot of forward thinking modern jazz. 3 hours ago, EKE BBB said: BTW, many thanks for your info on the Sippin' Rioja disc.
