The tracks with Howard McGhee and Brew Moore are also on one of those legendary Spotlite LPs. My God, Spotlite was the best label for treasures like that. It could have gone on forever...... Howard McGhee is so fast on that "Indianola", he almost could beat Diz and Fats. Brew is classic. I´ve always been impressed by his playing a very Lestorian tenor, with a lot of Boppers like Bird, Bud, Miles, Fats, J.J., Machito, just everybody...... "Cubop City" is the longest track as I remember and at one point I think Maggie and Mario Bauza a sharing the solos..... And I love the vocal numbers, that´s classic Cuban Music , I´ve been to Cuba.

Yes, its a great one. The Machito orch, Howard and Brew are great, of course, but I'm still listening on the vocal tracks, as I've been learning Spanish for two years, and they're a real challenge!

Yes I´m also listening to the vocal tracks and like them very much. Very rich in melody and arrangements, great thing. On the Spotlite they had omitted the vocals, with the exception of one rare vocal track by Harry Belafonte with (as is written on the cover) "probably the Machito Orchestra. Anyway I like this much more as the Verve Tracks No Noise and Mango or how they are titled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Disc 1 and 2 (The New Tradition and Lights Out). Two fine sessions. McLean and Byrd make a nice pair. I always enjoy Byrd's playing from this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always enjoy Byrd's playing from this time. Interesting how much Byrd's style changed over a rather short span of time; his playing here being Style One, while by the time of, say, "Fuego" or "Off To the Races" he was well into Style Two (much more brassy and round in sound, and with the number of notes per unit of time being fairly well pared down) or maybe even Style Three. And there were more to come. Style Two certainly owed a debt in passing to Clifford Brown, but once one had heard the Byrd of Style Two, it was unmistakably him, a personal translation of Brownie. P.S. I think that Byrd's actual technical approach to playing the instrument changed during this time -- from the pressure to no-pressure system or vice versa (I'm no expert there).. Then on "Fuego" he was playing the pocket trumpet, which made a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
