Immanuel Wilkins “Blues Blood” Blue Note cd.

His latest. A very interesting recording.

A lot to digest I'm finding. Several plays in and I'm not sure I've totally got it, it remains intriguing and interesting.

It's definitely challenging. But I'm enjoying the challenge.

I really like that album, picked up an LP recently.

Can you recommend anything similar?

 

As for the main solist, Ricard Roda on alto sax, I would recommend to start with

Nits-De-Jazz-Al-Jamboree-300x300.jpgasteriscs-with-tete-montoliu.jpg

 

As for Spanish jazz from the same period, this is also strongly recommended:

Unreleased Madrid Sessions 1964-1981

 

And finally, as for jazz musicians interpreting traditional Catalan songs, I have to go with Tete Montoliu, of course. Check his Catalan Suite from 

Tête À Tete, Primary, 1 of 5

or any of these two discs:

Interpreta A Serrat, Primary, 1 of 5

Catalonian Rhapsody, Primary, 1 of 3

hey, my youngest son lives in Spain, he has been there for many many years and settled in Northern Spain, it´s a small village called "Alea". Before that he stayed near Barcelona. He also sometimes digs jazz !

Interesting: 

I think I have a 4 CD box of the Royal Roost performances they are among the best Charlie Parker live with the exception of the two CBS "One Night at Birdland" and "Summit Meeting at Birdland".

The Carnegie Hall 1947 is that the record with Diz and  Dizzy´s rhythm section, where the other half is the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band ? 

Chicago 1950 I don´t know but I´m not a Bird completist.....
