mhatta Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 It's been hot in Tokyo lately, so I've been listening to a lot of albums with wild tenors (not Stan Getz style) playing bossa nova, samba and calypso. Quote

jazzbo Posted June 25 Report Posted June 25 This month when I turn on my stereo in the morning it’s an exciting first few minutes as the sound struts out. The system has never sounded better! Music is a thrilling component of the day. Right now “Duke Ellington in the Uncommon Market” OJC cd 893×768 87 KB Not your typical Ellington concert (actually excerpts of three concerts, one in Sweden, one in Italy, and one in France) of rarely played material. Waking my brain up! Quote
jazzbo Posted June 25 Report Posted June 25 Fascinating box set for those who have been fascinated by Ziggy and the Spiders. David Bowie “Rock 'n Roll Star” 5 cd and 1 Blu-ray box set. cd 1 Quote

Like usual, just click and listen for yourself. I checked the track Meet Your Maker this morning. I dig Bill's sound and this one wasn't so bad...kind of sounds like Jane's Addiction playing 70's Miles. I'll have to listen to the rest at some point. WP/NP: I absolutely love both of the Mars Williams albums on Corbett vs Dempsey. Excellent playing and fun to listen to. After this, quite a change in pace and style: Vol. 1...Going to George Coleman from Mars Williams was actually a little jarring. This sounded like easy listening jazz at first, but it gets better as it settles in. Walton, Sam Jones and Higgins actually make a great trio 🤔 Edited June 25 by Dub Modal Added words Quote
Dub Modal Posted June 25 Report Posted June 25 Vol 2 with Bob Berg on tenor who I'm enjoying more than Coleman at the moment. Quote

jazzbo Posted June 25 Report Posted June 25 Robert Parker/Jazz Classics in Digital Stereo “Duke Ellington – Swing 1930 To 1938” cd I found where I had placed about 18 of these “Digital Stereo” re-workings of classic earlier jazz and chose this one to listen to today. They are fun, some better to listen to than others, but the track choices are interesting. [IMG]600×600 92.7 KB [IMG]600×750 17.1 KB Quote
