Yeah can’t wait to spin them Was looking for them for quite a while. They have to be shipped from Japan so I have to be patient...

[HutchFan]

Ordered some LPs from Euclid today:

Two relatively early Paquito albums, post-Irakere.

 

This Lee Konitz LP is an "upgrade" from emusic.com downloads to vinyl.  

 

This Bill Hardman album was produced by Bob Porter, always a good sign.  After only having heard Walter Bishop's "Coral Keys" from this LP, I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of it.

Oregon/Elvin Jones Together (Vanguard)

Junior Mance - Live At The Top (Guest Artist: David Newman) (Atlantic)

Herbie Mann Live At Newport (Atlantic)

Just snagged this LP off ebay:

Hermeto Pascoal E Grupo - Lagoa Da Canoa Município De Arapiraca (Happy Hour/Som Da Gente, 1984)

Hermeto's most well known album is probably Slaves Mass (Warner Brothers, 1977), a superb, strange, and deliciously uncategorizable record.  But I think his recordings from the following decade -- with his "Grupo" -- are even better.  The band, which came together in 1981, consisted of Hermeto, Jovino Santos Neto (kybd, fl), Itiberê Zwarg (b, tu), Carlos Malta (sax, fl), Márcio Bahia (d, perc), and Pernambuco (perc).  The group stayed together for twelve years.  Since they rehearsed constantly with Pascoal serving as a mentor and quasi-guru (in an almost Sun Ra-like way), they developed near-telepathic levels of interaction and memorized massive quantities of Pascoal's music. 

The four astonishing albums that they made during the 1980s -- Hermeto Pascoal & Grupo (1982), Lagoa Da Canoa Município De Arapiraca (1984), Brasil Universo (1986), and Só Não Toca Quem Não Quer (1987) -- deserve to be MUCH more well known.  Finding this music on CD or LP (at a reasonable price) can be a bit of a challenge.  Fortunately, most of it is available on the internet.  To listen to Lagoa Da Canoa Município De Arapiraca, click here.

Só Não Toca Quem Não Quer was licensed by Intuition (in Germany) and Capitol (in the U.S.). That makes it the easiest to find of the four, and it's probably my favorite Hermeto.

Found that one a while back in a totally random/lucky browse in a suburban Half-Price, somehow a buttload full of Brazilian LPs - not America issues either, either, OG label stuff - had ended up in the "International" section there. A totally incongruous find, so carpe diem, right?

The thing on that record that really trips me out, to this day, is the one where he plays around with the recording of the soccer announcer. That is just...genius. And we should call it what it is - sampling. It's not a dirty word!

Pascoal is somebody to whom I have learned to never pass over.

But, Pascoal-less and ordered pre-dawn this AM was
