Niko Posted January 3, 2023 Report Posted January 3, 2023 bought earlier today, no major finds here (and quite modest expenses) but I am happy Quote

Sure it'll be good too I'm looking forward to hearing them! Just curious: Among the Gunter Hampel albums in your collection, which two or three (or four) are your favorites? I'm only just now getting started collecting his music, and I have no idea which ones are the most highly regarded. Quote

Tough call but without overthinking it, here's six, couldn't get it any lower 😀 '8th July 1969' 'Wellen Waves- Berlin Soloflight' 'Oasis' duet w. Jeanne Lee 'That Come On Down' 'People Symphony' 'Heartplants' very early but very good That being said I haven't been disappointed in any I've bought. I will be very interested to hear what you make of your imminent arrival. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Gunter Hampel + Jeanne Lee (Wergo) 8th of July 1969 (Birth) Espace (Birth) Music from Europe (ESP) People Symphony (Birth) Oasis (Horo) Heartplants (SABA) looks like I have 15 or so kicking around here, but those are some favorites... Journey to the Song Within is really strong. I have it with a white cover & pics of Hampel and Murray among others... The Traveler is a beaut as well. Quote

All the Things You Could Be Right Now if Gunter Hampel Was Your Neighbor Some of my favorite Hampels from the early years haven't been properly issued -- the recording with School, Tchicai, John Stevens a.o.; Hampel/Schlippenbach/AMM...

Pim Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 Finally part 2 of my Japanese batch arrived today. Collective birthday gift from my whole family for which I am very, very greatful. Part from the Marion Brown I already owned the others on cd but as they are among my five star albums I still wanted to have a good vinyl copy. Quote
HutchFan Posted February 6, 2023 Report Posted February 6, 2023 Digging further into Hampel's sound-world: Thanks again to @mjazzg and @clifford_thornton for the recommendations. I also ordered this LP: Along with Mike Westbrook, Graham Collier, and others, it seems like Mike Gibbs was part of a flowering of UK jazz composers in the late-60s and early-70s who focused on large ensembles. I know and enjoy Gibbs' In the Public Interest, his collaboration with Gary Burton, but I'm wanting to explore a bit further. I wish Vocalion's CD reissue of Gibbs' two Deram LPs was still available. The only US-based discogs seller who has it wants $48. 😲 . . . That's too pricey for me. Oh well. At least both albums are available for streaming. Quote

I remember when ‘Chrome Waterfall’ came out on vinyl, it was quite a popular release at the time. Gibbs had some crossover success - maybe getting music credits for ‘The Goodies’ comedy TV show helped ! Last time I saw him live he was conducting a youth orchestra as part of his 80th birthday celebrations, covering his own arrangements, must have been in 2017. Very enjoyable.
