HutchFan Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Dizzy Gillespie - The Big Bands (LRC, recorded 1962 & 1968) Disc 1 There's some excellent music here -- but it's astonishing how bad a job LRC does packaging it. They do all that they can to convey, "Hey, we're cheap!" (And I don't mean value-conscious cheap. I mean slipshod and careless.) Dizzy deserves better.

It’s a superb performance and as good as anything Dickerson ever released. The band is spectacular too, Tucker and Cyrille being particular revelations.

mikeweil Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 ... and a hilarious album. Better than one might think, the Sisters were right down on it, great sidemen including Herbie Hancock, and Gaylord Birch laying down the funkiest grooves on the planet. Now playing some Hip Hop which I bought for a buck because Rodney Kendrick is the mastermind here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(IMO) they were especially great with Alain Toussaint songs (here with "Goin`Down Slow" or the 1973 performance of "Yes We Can Can"), but on "Steppin`" for me the unquestionable highligt being their superb take on the McTell/Taj Mahal euvre "Chainey Do" with a ferociuos bassline by Paul Jackson .... irresistible to say the least ....

erwbol Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 John Coltrane Coltrane (Tower Records Japan, PROZ-1110, Hybrid SACD) New 2018 DSD mastering by Kevin Reeves. I only have this one title out of five (Ballads, Hartman, Ellington, A Love Supreme). Personally, I like it, but a member of the Hoffman board with all five titles states the series lacks consistency. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/tower-records-japan-exclusive-john-coltrane-hybrid-sacds.763610/#post-19495690 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love their vocal arrangements. I don't have many albums by vocal groups - more by the Coasters and the Pointer sisters than any others.
