jazzbo Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 Lucy has a "hair appointment" so I am getting a bonus listening session in and continuing with Miles Davis, "Water Babies" Columbia cd, from the Complete Columbia Albums box set Great, different music on both sides of this original album, I really wanted to hear side 1 this time, the second great Quintet. This cover always brings me back to childhood in Philadelphia. . . we had one neighbor Dad who brought out a big monkey wrench a few times each summer and opened up a water hydrant and kids flocked to frolic in the outpouring of water for about an hour before city workers came out to wrench it closed again. Ah, simple fun urban childhood times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is guitar player who reminds me slightly of Jimmy Raney or Doug Raney.  This is the first time I heard him. I like his playing. Now playing. Yes, I think you're on to a good one there, Peter. 29 minutes ago, Jim Duckworth said: One of my favourite Blue Note albums. Those Dorham compositions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, simple fun urban childhood times. When that LP came out in 1976, I thought of it almost like a ‘Dead Sea Scrolls’ linking the Sorcerer era on side 1 with the ‘Dual Mr Tillman Anthony’ stuff on side 2 as a missing link into the ‘In A Silent Way’ period. A real humdinger release at the time, when Miles was otherwise silent. I don’t think Tony Williams’ drums was ever recorded better by Columbia than he was on those side 1 tracks.

It was a really exciting release when it came out. I can even remember when I picked it up and where, and I've loved this music ever since.

Yeah - I remember hearing one track on side one and the whole of side 2 being broadcast on a radio show, liking it from the off and buying the LP very soon after.

I was familiar with Ponomarev from his work with Blakey and his debut Means of Identification, but this is in a much higher league than that latter record. What's Sweet Basil like? I see it has John Hicks in the piano seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
