jazzcorner Posted October 3 Report Posted October 3 3 hours ago, Gheorghe said: Strange, so much as I liked "Back to the Track", I didn´t find much stuff for me on the "Waitin´ game". Somehow like I don´t like the before unissued album they made with Freddie Redd. I love his compositions, his playing and his choice of musicians so much and was so disappointed by I think it´s titled "Redd´s Blues", with an obscure drummer, who doesn´t fit in, and the ensemble playing and the horn solos are also a mess..... Well Wilbur Ware and Philly Joe are a strong rhythm section and Johnny Coles isnt that bad either. Here we seem to disagree ;-]] Quote

Peter Friedman Posted October 3 Report Posted October 3 Mike Murley is one of my favorite (living) tenor players. This is a good album with some particularly fine tenor work by Mike. Quote

jazzbo Posted October 3 Report Posted October 3 It's a good one! I had this on cassette and transferred to cdr for a long time, part of trading years ago with Danny D'Imperio. Sounds better on this Fresh Sounds release. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted October 3 Report Posted October 3 I particularly like the way Holman arranged the version of "If You Could See me Now" Quote

Here we seem to disagree ;-]] I remember that Johnny Coles is on it, but as much as I like Johnny Coles own album for BN, I think I remember I didn´t likee it so much on that Tina Brooks album. And maybe I had my things with never before issued contemporanous CDs under the BN label name. Like I don´t really like Jackie McLeans Tippin´ the Scales, and prefer the more far out goin albums he did at that time. Or Lee Morgan´s "Rajah" somehow is not up to what I used to hear from Lee Morgan, Let´s say, maybe because BN made too many records and then also issued originally rejected material. I like one good album, no alternative tracks and so, just the music that was recorded and put out then.... But it´s mostly possible I have this listening habit, since I don´t have much time left to listen once a while to a record, that means I mostly listen to what is a regular album or even better a live recording...

He brought even Stans band to swing like mad. Throughout Europe he directed many radio bigbands of the different countries as from Switzerland, Germany (WDR big band / radio Frankfurt big band/ radio Hamburg big band) and also in the Netherlands. A real giant he was. Edited October 4 by jazzcorner Quote
