JSngry Posted May 23, 2023 Author Report Posted May 23, 2023 Just came today. Wow. So much music. New music. Real music. Great music! How about kudos to Pi Records for continuing to facilitate Henry Threadgill. They are doing God's Work. Quote

JSngry Posted May 23, 2023 Author Report Posted May 23, 2023 Threadgill doesn't play on this one, he "just" conducts. But that's no doubt necessary. Besides, it's a really expert group of players he's got here. I wonder if a video of this will come out at some point. I'd love to see the entire multimedia presentation! Quote

BillF Posted May 23, 2023 Report Posted May 23, 2023 Back to a favourite from my youth. Amazing to think that this was so generally popular that "Straight No Chaser" from this album was on a juke box in Leeds University Students' Union in the early 60s. But, of course, this was pre-Beatles. My inspiration for playing it now was this fascinating analysis of what Philly Joe does in the opening bars of "Two Bass Hit" from the album: Quote
Peter Friedman Posted May 23, 2023 Report Posted May 23, 2023 The leader {drummer} Pelle Trazan Jonasson is a new name to me, but the other 3 - tenor player Nisse Sandstrom, pianist Jan Lundgren, and bass player Jesper Lundgaard are all top level Swedish jazz musicians, and favorites of mine. Quote

HutchFan Posted May 23, 2023 Report Posted May 23, 2023 Outstanding collection of recordings from the GAS. Wilson's singing gets me every time. Quote
