If not for those recordings, much would have been lost. So true! And labels like Black & Blue, Chiaroscuro, Sackville, Master Jazz and others carried on this important work into the 70s. My listening this morning -- a double-shot of Buddy Tate -- is case in point. Quote

HutchFan Posted January 9, 2019 Report Posted January 9, 2019 Mary Lou Williams - Nite Life (Chiaroscuro, 2 CDs) Outstanding solo piano. Some of MLW's best recordings, imho. Quote
JohnS Posted January 9, 2019 Report Posted January 9, 2019 There's so much fascinating music here. Surely there must be enough decent stuff for another compilation. Quote

Surely there must be enough decent stuff for another compilation. A good reminder .... worth the ticket of entry for the three ballad tracks with Ike Quebec + Duke Pearson + Israel Crosby + Vernell Founier .... btw two more tracks still missing (aka "I Remember April" + Midnight Sun" ) ....

duaneiac Posted January 9, 2019 Report Posted January 9, 2019 Earlier: A 1995 concert with Ray Brown and Mundell Lowe. To be honest, I couldn't really get into this one today, so I bailed about 3/4 of the way through. Now playing: Quote

duaneiac Posted January 9, 2019 Report Posted January 9, 2019 Disc 1 of 2. On the first Word Jazz album, the drummer was credited as "Forest Horn". Three guesses who that was! It had been a long time since I'd listened to these funny & moving stories told by one of my idols. Quote
