JSngry Posted August 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 Sonny is just nonstop on this one. The full impact is blunted because it sounds like they hadn't yet figured out how to get a mix between room sound and his clip on mike. He's such a physical player that he inhabits the entire space, and this mix diminishes that, perhaps even negates it. But for most of this record, it's like when the RECORD light came on, Sonny started playing and didn't stop until they told him to. Overall, a bit of a stealth Sonny Rollins record, one to be listened to with a visual picture of this big guy walking around playing his tenor with ease and aplomb and an imaginary aural picture of being inside that entire room, not just inside the microphone. 6 hours ago, rostasi said: Who the hell is that?

I love that album so much. All those great tunes. And that fantastic line up, really an allstar thing. This is really a good afro-cuban - bop ("cu-bop") record, much better than the half hearted attempt they made with Charlie Parker on the LP "Siesta". But I like also the remaining straight ahead tunes. "La Villa" is a thing I love to play live. So fine to play, really fast. 7 hours ago, JSngry said: Sonny is just nonstop on this one.

Who the hell is that? Are those quarter notes or sperms? Very interesting remarks: I was lucky I really tried to buy every new Sonny Rollins record in my youth, when I heard him live. All those great Milestone albums "Cuttin´ Edge", "Easy Living" "Don´t Stop the Carnaval", "No Question" or how the 1979 album was titled, but somewhere in the 80´s I lost the trace. Just when I got the "Road Trips" from my wife I learned more about the late styled Rollins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just going to comment on that track which I also heard in that episode about an hour ago. I admit I wouldn't have known it was KD if they hadn't said so in the dialogue.

In any case. Then I didn´t really like the "Someday My Prince will come" album, didn´t like the tune, that I found to "kitschy" and the general lack of energy. See, I was more that kind of "angry kid" and dug the hard stuff, the pushing the music forward and get more further "out". So, for a boy of 14-16 years this was not really the stuff I dug. 12 hours ago, jazzbo said: Freddie Hubbard “Red Clay” CTI King Jazz RVG series UHQCD This disc has great mastering and sound. The music of my youth. Boy, how much did we dig this, all them players were our heroes, it was what happened then. And since I was somehow in the middle of the position of still acoustic jazz and the beginning of electric jazz. We all hummed that "Red Clay" , hummed the tricky bass line..... And later, all of us great VSOP fans hearing the live version of "Clay" on the "Colloseum" album....with Wayne, Freddie, Herbie, Ron and our hero Tony !

Was that a late 70s CBS double called ‘Miles Davis and John Coltrane’? I have that one somewhere - always liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that one somewhere - always liked it. I don´t remember, yeah it must have been around 1977, so I was a bit older, 18. It had a colour photo of Miles, but obviously from much later, from the Bitches Brew time, and I liked the first LP, ok on the 2´nd LP I liked what Mobley and Trane do on "Someday...", and maybe there was a standard blues in F, but in general I liked the groups with Philly J.J and then with Tony Williams much more than the more polished Wynton Kelly, Jimmy Cobb thing. Somehow for me something was missing . I had bought before the Miles at Antibes 1963 and it was the greatest for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
