jazzbo Posted August 2, 2023 Report Share Posted August 2, 2023 John Coltrane “Ballads” Impulse/Universal Japan SHM-SACD 2023 Listening to this one again. Have to admit it is one fine sounding disc. The depth of the sound field is represented very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same Baker preference here and those are two great compilations of his quartet work with Freeman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very fine. I heard some Bob Berg somewhere, he was fine, I think he was somehow the post Trane generation like Dave Liebman. But otherwise than "Lieb" , he somehow didn´t find his place in the Miles Davis Group, but maybe this was not his fault, it was just, that otherwise than the Miles from 73 to 75 was exiting, the late 80´s band just sucked, no good tunes, too much synthies and drum machines.....

HutchFan Posted August 2, 2023 Report Share Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) Ricky Ford - American-African Blues (Candid, 1993) with Jaki Byard, Milt Hinton, and Ben Riley Outstanding! EDIT: I first heard this music many years ago when I downloaded the album from emusic.com. I've been meaning to get a CD version for years, and a few weeks ago I stumbled across a copy. So good to hear this music in full fidelity. I don't really consider myself an audiophile -- but the jump from MP3 to CD is significant when it comes to AQ. I'm hearing all sorts of "new" sonic/musical details. I find myself upgrading quite a few of the MP3 albums I bought on emusic.com back in the day to CDs -- especially as prices of CDs continue to fall.

jazzbo Posted August 2, 2023 Report Share Posted August 2, 2023 “Sweet Blossom Dearie” Fontana/UHQCD Japan Recorded live at Ronnie Scott’s with Blossom at the piano in a trio format, this is a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted August 2, 2023 Report Share Posted August 2, 2023 Sammy Davis Jr. - The Wham of Sam (Warner Archives, 1994) featuring Marty Paich & his Dek-Tette and Marlene VerPlanck Loves Johnny Mercer (Audiophile, rec. 1978) I keep coming back to this album. The cuts are short (mostly between 2 and 3 minutes), and there are no instrumental solos. Throughout, the focus is squarely on VerPlanck. That might not sound like a formula for success -- but it works. VerPlanck's voice and interpretations carry the day. Mercer's lyrics leap to life, and the band swings hard in their supporting role. Pizzarelli especially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find myself upgrading quite a few of the MP3 albums I bought on emusic.com back in the day to CDs -- especially as prices of CDs continue to fall. Well, about audio I can´t say much, for me it is important to hear the drums, especially if it is a topnotch-drummer like Ben Riley. I never had an MP3 and don´t know about sonic/musical details. 50 years of playing music take their toll but I´m glad I still can hear a record without turning up the volume to the highest volume and still can enojy what I hear without causing noise pain for my wife. I´m only pissed of if a studio record is done in a way where you don´t hear the full range of the sound of the ride cymbal etc. Stellar musicians here. Though I must admit I´m a bit surprised about Milt Hinton. I don´t know much about him, he seems to be from a much older generation than Byard, who played with Mingus, and Riley who played with Monk. I have not seen or heard Ricky Ford since the time he was in Mingus´ Band, where he followed George Adams. I didn´t catch the Adams-Pullen-Band, but caught the band with Ricky Ford twice, it was the greatest. Jack Walrath and Ricky Ford the frontline......
