Larry Kart Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 I began back in the day with the 10" that had "Shuffle Montgomery" and was hooked. Quote

Brad Posted February 22, 2020 Report Posted February 22, 2020 Picked up the following LPs at estate sales: Bird with the Herd - 1951 Herb Alpert Presents Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 Look Around - Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 Nancy Wilson - A Touch of Today and Easy. These are not considered great albums so I may part with them Quote

JSngry Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 I'd recommend not jumping to too hasty of a conclusion on the Nancy wilson records. some of them sound better to me as they years go by than they did at first listen. The thing about them is that even when they're mostly standards, and have big-band backing, very few of them are really "jazz" records, they're more "jazzy-pop". Once I adjusted my perspective accordingly, I started enjoying them more. No matter, if you ever come across a copy of TLC, carpe diem. That one is a real gem, period! Buster Williams and Shelley Manne! That's such a soulful song, no matter who does it. Quote
David Ayers Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 Mustve streamed this 100 times, now here it is. Love it and record of 2019 for me. Quote

Buster Williams and Shelley Manne! That's such a soulful song, no matter who does it. I listened to A Touch of Today this morning. It’s a record of pop covers, or jazzy pop as you put it. Nothing flashy but her voice makes the record. I’d hesitate to label it as easy listening. After all, it is Nancy Wilson! Quote
HutchFan Posted February 28, 2020 Report Posted February 28, 2020 More from Shirley Scott & Stanley Turrentine. This CD includes both The Soul Is Willing (1963) and Soul Shoutin' (1963). Quote

ghost of miles Posted March 17, 2020 Report Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Made a trip this afternoon to support a couple of local businesses I love, included Landlocked Music CDs and Vinyl—they’ll be closing indefinitely as of tomorrow, like a number of other shops in town. Picked up a used copy of this: ... as well as this new release by Shabaka and the Ancestors: Edited March 17, 2020 by ghost of miles Quote

mjazzg Posted March 18, 2020 Report Posted March 18, 2020 The Shabaka is really impressive, a definite development from the first which was pretty good itself. Quote
kh1958 Posted March 18, 2020 Report Posted March 18, 2020 I was really looking forward to seeing Shabaka and the Ancestors at Big Ears; but at least the new CD is darn good. Quote
JSngry Posted March 21, 2020 Report Posted March 21, 2020 Thankful that records last longer than the people who make them (and the people who buy them and, for that matter, sell them), as well as for the gosdarn internet, which might do it's part to keep those records alive in the market place, all of which has been said in light of last night's very simple Dusty Groove order: Item #1: Item #2: I mean, hell, music, right? It's endless! Quote
