HutchFan Posted April 2, 2020 Report Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) Just snagged this Cannonball LP off ebay: Over the last few days, I've listened to this record several times (via YouTube). Been enjoying it so much that I decided I "needed" the vinyl. On 4/1/2020 at 5:36 PM, Pim said: with Stanley Cowell, Sonny Fortune, Onaje Allan Gumbs, Billy Hart etc. need I say more.

Expand I considered including Live at Redlands University, along with a couple other Kenton recordings -- Live at BYU, Live in Europe. But Redlands University will have to be one that we discuss afterwards. It didn't quite make my "personal selection" cut, and I've already passed its 1970 recording date. I am looking forward to hearing it on my stereo in high-fidelity, instead of just streaming it via YT and hearing it on crappy computer speakers or headphones. I think all music benefits from improved sound fidelity. But some music needs excellent sound for it to be "fully realized." (An analogy -- 2001: A Space Odyssey isn't the same film on a television as it is on a movie screen. The large screen is required for the film to make it's "true" impact.) I'm thinking that Redlands University may be like that, in terms of sound. That's why I decided to order it. We'll see. Edited April 2, 2020 by HutchFan Quote

But on this record, that's a GOOD thing, and hell yeah, play it loud. PLAY IT VERY LOUD. and seriously - play it loud. It was louder than fuck in person, trust me, quite possible louder than anything your record player can do. But it was a clean loud, because it was all acoustic instruments, all of them. All acoustic instruments played loudly by people who knew how to do that without distorting the sound. And that's pretty much true of all Kenton - however variable the quality of the writing is, and however variable the "jazz quotient" (whatever that means, except it's noticeable in its absence more than in its presence), that shit is always executed with the highest skill. I might have forgotten to say this, but, yeah - play it loud. Dick Shearer has a trombone section just waiting for you to do that. Don't disappoint him. Quote

Justin V Posted April 3, 2020 Report Posted April 3, 2020 Peter Tomlinson - Momentum, with Dick Oatts, Anthony Cox and Jimmy Cobb: Amazon must've been clearing off some shelves, because I paid $2.69 after tax. I have never heard Tomlinson, but that band at that price was a no-brainer. Quote
