Rabshakeh Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Lee Morgan - Caramba! (Blue Note, 1968) . Not sure why but this has been showing up in social media a lot recently, which prompted me to listen to it again. I forgot how enjoyable it is. The title track has some strong similarities to "Listen Here" to my ears, although the playing is so different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I never understood why they played the solos on "St Thomas" in swing rhythm here. 8 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Milt Jackson - Olinga (CTI, 1974) Olinga.....Dizzy´s composition I think. Milt Jackson performed it with Diz in 1981 in Montreux. Great performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I had read a long time ago that Monk played with him at Newport, I know there must be an album. But if a veteran plays compositions of Monk, and even Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane, he earns my deepest respect, and that a more modern orientated label like Impulse recorded him. I heard a few combinations of Oldtime Jazz with "then modern jazz" in my live: The jam session in Paris 1949, were Sidney Bechet meets Bird and Miles, some broadcast of Bird with Miles, where an oldtime trumpetist named Max Kaminsky plays with them on Bird´s tune "Big Foot", then the 1947 WNEW Broadcast were Fats Navarro plays with more oldtime sounding Bill Harris "Sweet Georgia Brown". That means they really were musicians, and music is the common language. But if amateur Old Time groups here around in Europe play, they would not accept a more modern player, at least in most of the cases. Once there was a beer garden and such a Trad Band with Banjo and Tuba played and someone told me to sit in on piano. I still regret I did it. They said, let´s play Sweet Georgia Brown - no problem - and I played my solo maybe with lines not far away from Fats or Bud (who also recorded "Brown"), maybe with some left hand stride at one point as a nod to the "oldies". There were two young or middle aged guys in the oldy band who smiled at me and liked it, but the boss, a fat white hair banjo player hated it. By the way, he was from some authority that gave permisson if a club wants after hour open time, and he made a deal with that club "you get your after hour thing and let us play one time every month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 I know, Steve Coleman, supposed to cancel him, etc. So, ok Steve Coleman, your dick fucked up your morality. Shame on you, you monster. There, cancelled. But this is a damn good record of a damn good band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably why it's been all over social media these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really quite something. Russell I think was always a bit of a curious player, I think. He's backed by Marshall Brown on trombone and a good rhythm section, who keep him steady. It really works.

jazzbo Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Pee Wee Russell is one of my favorite jazz musicians. Louis Prima described him as one of the most brilliant musical minds he ever worked with. I buy anything he appears on. Right now I've been thinking of this one lately, an old favorite. Grace's piano playing and singing are really something here. Paul Kantner "Blows Against the Empire" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
