I wish half the solo piano trio records had this quality to them. I think it gets lost in the shuffle between the early piano trio records and then the more famous RTF stuff. I rarely remember that they exist. 18 minutes ago, mjazzg said: Too ‘pretty’? Or more jazz heat? Quote

JSngry Posted January 10, 2022 Author Report Posted January 10, 2022 The new material is definitely value added, more things from the Choreographers Workshop period, lots of percussion-based stuff, which always turns out well with this group. They started getting into that in the later Chicago days and continued to develop it after the move to NYC. Quote

I stick with the absolute classics because other albums are more of the same in a less way (buy them on cd sometimes). Orginality isn't one of the strongest characteristics of jazz-music (some exceptions). Edited January 11, 2022 by Referentzhunter Quote

Oh , and I have also "In Tune" with the Singers Unlimited with Peterson, it was somehow en vogue when I was a boy.... Quote
jazzbo Posted January 11, 2022 Report Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) "Sunflower" got me in a CTI mood and so I'm now on the second disc ("Chicago Theme") in this 2 cd Hubert Laws set, "Morning Star / Carnegie Hall / Chicago Theme" on Beat Goes On. A mixed bag overall but the arrangements on the first two albums and the innovative flute effects technology especially on the first album remain very interesting. The mastering on these Beat Goes On CTI recordings is "meaty" and I wanted to hear how they are reproduced by my new DAC, which is a heavily modded (new transformers, EMF absorption material, and and analog board/Farad external linear power supply mod) example of the PS Audio DirectStream DAC that I have been using for years.
