Rabshakeh Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Sylvie Courvoisier, Susie Ibarra and Joëlle Léandre - Passagio God, this record is excellent. One of Leander’s very best performances, but Ibarra and Courvoisier are fantastic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to listen to it again. His style and language is really different to Mitchell's percussion pieces as presented by Mitchell or the AEC. I thought he was really excellent at the final Brotzmann gig. But Brotzmann and Mitchell are quite different languages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now streaming I don't know why (although I did have them down as an electric Miles tribute act) but I have completely ignored Nucleus until recently when I bought 'Labyrinth' mostly because Norma Winstone's on it. Now investigating them chronologically, this is very good isn't it? Sounds not unlike the Graham Collier albums of this time that I love so much.

If you can, check out the BBC box set. . . better than the other albums imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in my slow and steady in rotation listen to the box for a second time, and I think over time I'll listen to it more often than the other material.

HutchFan Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Now streaming: Ryo Kawasaki - Ring Toss (Chiaroscuro, 1977) with Larry Willis, Sam Morrison, Badal Roy, and others Interesting music that aims high and convincingly pulls in disparate elements. I hear some echoes of McLaughlin (and Shakti) in Kawasaki's playing & music -- but not disturbingly so. I particularly dig the vocalist, Rhada Shottam, who contributes wordless vocals à la Norma Winstone. 43 minutes ago, mjazzg said: I don't know why (although I did have them down as an electric Miles tribute act) but I have completely ignored Nucleus until recently when I bought 'Labyrinth' mostly because Norma Winstone's on it.

She is fantastic on that record! That's my "go to" record for Nucleus, in no small part because of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own that too. I like the BBC sessions better by more than a few hairs. Right now My copy of the Barylli Quartet’s Beethoven String Quartet cycle arrived today from Japan, reissued in the UHQCD format. Beethoven: The Complete String Quartets [Limited Release] [UHQCD] Barylli Quartet CD Album A budget production in that it comes in a clamshell sort of box with plastic sleeves and a booklet, but the UHQCD format is handsome and the sound is quite good as far as mastering goes. The sonic character is typical of well-recorded early fifties mono, and though I wish there were a bit more “oomph” to the cello, there’s little else to complain about. So far I’d say that the interpretation is not too adventurous but plenty expressive. Will be interesting to hear the entire cycle. I notice that Japan has also reissued a five cd set of the Mozart quartets by these gents on this label, as well as a single cd of the quintets. . . in UHQCD. I ordered those.
