HutchFan Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Ray Anderson, Mark Helias, Gerry Hemingway – Oahspe (Auricle Records, 1979) The first BassDrumBone album -- although they hadn't come up with that name for the trio yet.

HutchFan Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 10 hours ago, Rabshakeh said: Is this or any of their other records something you'd recommend? Yes, I would definitely recommend Oahspe. It doesn't at all sound like first record. Terrific playing and interesting compositions, most of which are by Helias. The other album from BassDrumBone that I listen to most often is Right Down Your Alley. It was actually released under Ray Anderson's leadership (on Soul Note in '84) -- but it's the same trio. IMO, Mark Helias is the "glue" in that band, and he's one of those musicians who seems to always be making interesting music. He's made a bunch of outstanding records too with his band Open Loose -- with Tom Rainey and Tony Malaby (and sometimes Ellery Eskelin). Have you heard Atomic Clock or Verbs of Will? More outstanding music in the same neighborhood as BassDrumBone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a copy of that in the pile to go to the second hand shop this week, perhaps i should listen to it again beforehand 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
