HutchFan Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 First spin. Sounding great, so far. Dan Weiss in the drummer's chair is always a good sign. Max Light - Henceforth (SteepleChase) This 2023 release was given to me by mi amigo, @Ken Dryden. Thanks, Ken! Quote

HutchFan Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 This again: Bruce Gertz - Red Handed (Double-Time Records, 1999) If I were to make a list of my favorite records of the 1990s, this one would be on it. The front-line combo of Abercrombie & Bergonzi is VERY nice. Quote

jazzbo Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 (edited) Sure, I'm aware. I'd still like to have an officially released version--in part because I only have a mono button on my phono preamp. Edited May 23 by jazzbo Quote
clifford_thornton Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 yeah, I have a mono pressing of that LP (wasn't chasing after the mono, just what landed in front of me). It's a very good date. Quote

One of my first jazz LPs was Tranes "At Village Vanguard Again" (with Pharoah, Alice, Garrison, Rashied Ali) and then I got my first Sanders LP (Live at the East). I like all those great albums he made, those from the 60´s and 70´s as well as the later straight ahead dates with a typical ts.p.,b,dr - quartet...... everything ! Quote

To have "Live at the East" as your first Pharoah album was probably beautifully intense. My first, as a youngster, was "Tauhid", but "...East" got a LOT of play at home in those days. Quote

My first, as a youngster, was "Tauhid", but "...East" got a LOT of play at home in those days. My LP cover is really old and looks like that, when it was purchased so 50 years ago, when I was a teenager. As late as in the second decade of the 2000 when Pharoah Sanders played for the last time in Vienna, I had the LP with me hoping to get to Mr. Sanders if he would like to sign it for me, but I was to shy and thought he doesn´t look like a man who will meet a fan. Too bad, later I heard he sure would have done it. But on the other hand, I´m a musician and signed albums does not mean so much to me, it´s the music that counts. Especially in my early days of listening to jazz I was very very much in the stuff of Dolphy, Coleman, Cherry, Sun Ra, late Coltrane and of course Pharoah Sanders. I heard that stuff before I heard Bird on records...... Quote
