It takes a certain confidence to pull it off (I couldn't, even if I wanted to) and this guy is doing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 (edited) Billy May and his Orchestra / Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra The Swing Era: The Music of 1940 - 1941: How It Was To Be Young Then More out of interest than anything. Listening to it reminds me that I already knew these versions from hearing them played. Presumably for many consumers, the recollection of the Time Warner box set has replaced the recollection of the originals. Much like how the filmed versions of the moon landing have replaced the original news footage in many people's memories.

This is really the school of bop. If you have Bird´s Savoy or Dial sessions and Dizzy´s RCA records, I think you have the basis to learn the bop language. At least in my case it was so, but that RCA collection did not exist 45-50 years ago. I think there was a black white cover LP with the later RCA sessions from 1949 with "Land of Oo Bla Dee" and so on. Also interesting the Victor session with all the leading musicians of bop or cool (a trumpet section consiting of Diz, Fats, Miles......just incredible....)

Rabshakeh Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Chet Baker / Steve Houben – Chet Baker - Steve Houben This one ranks pretty high in my opinion for late period Chet. Seems under-rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 J & K “StoneBone” RSD reissue vinyl A&M/CTI JJ Johnson and Kai Winding in a funky setting. Benson is really good here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 (edited) Reminds me to spin this one again, one of my most played "recent" albums actually... With Houben's son Greg playing the Chet-inspired trumpet.... Since uncle Jacques Pelzer was already playing this type of music, the album is kind of a celebration of three generations in the family business (and the two also made a cute but silly promo video that's on YouTube) Edited February 23 by Niko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Sun Ra and his Intergalactic Research Arkestra – Paradiso Amsterdam 1970 Nice sound. I was excited for this release. . . but. . .I think my tastes have shifted away from this sort of Ra “jazz.” It’s seeming more like rock or pop music to me these days. . . the appeal has waned over the years.

I'll check it out. I'd heard that his son played too and so I'm interested to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
