MIles Davis “Jazz at the Plaza” Sony lp facsimile 20bit SBM cd.

I have several versions of this, and decided to play this one today. . . though this is not the best recording, with wonky stereo artifacts, the music is outstanding. Cannonball plays two awesome solos here.

From the music it is quite similar to another live recording from Newport, also with Trane and Cannonball. I think I remember that Miles is barely audible on one track, maybe it was "If I Were A Bell". 

Maybe this is a sacrilege what I say now but from the saxophone I always have been listening mostly to Trane. Somehow Cannonball in that context didn´t get to me the same way Trane does. I don´t know what it is what I don´t like so much about Cannonballs alto style, he is a topnotch player and all, but....... (?). I think in my case I would have liked to hear that sextet with Jackie McLean on alto.

Oh my. Big Cannonball fan here and so glad he was in this sextet at that time.

That´s why I said it will be a sacrilege what I will write.

It's not a sacrilege. It's just your opinion, just as mine is mine.

NP:

Kid Thomas - New Orleans Traditional Jazz Legends, Vol. 4 (Mardi Gras Records)
Originally released as two LPs on the Smoky Mary label:
- Jazz, Gospel & Blues: Living New Orleans Jazz (1973)
- Kid Thomas Featuring Alton Purnell (1978)

Shifting gears and locales -- from New Orleans to the Moers Festival:

Yamashita Trio - Clay (Enja, rec. 1974)
with Akira Sakata and Takeo Moriyama

It's astonishing that three people can make so much music that they sound like an entire orchestra.

👍😁 "Third Stream" was interesting but never made it in the end. Have one with John Lewis & Stan Getz & Tony Scott.

Leo Wright was one of those "single" visitors to Club 43 in Manchester in the late 60s whom I saw. How did I come to miss Rollins? But I did manage to get there for Webster, Dexter, Griffin and Mobley.
