Hardbopjazz Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I wish there were more recordings by Walter Davis, JR. I was watching yesterday the "One Night at Blue Note show" and now listening to "Davis Cup". I like his playing. Quote

WD45 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Eddie Costa - I would have loved to hear him with some advanced reeds players. Dupree Bolton. John Gilmore, on his own. Scott LaFaro. Hell, put them all in a band with Tony Williams or Pete LaRoca and I would be in heaven. Quote
John B Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 a few who haven't been named so far: Tina Brooks Fred Jackson Alan Shorter Quote

AfricaBrass Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I agree with all your choices. I would add Dupree Bolton. I would have loved to hear more of him. Quote
vibes Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Eddie Costa - I would have loved to hear him with some advanced reeds players. Good choice...I think I would rather hear him on vibes than piano, though. Quote

Good choice...I think I would rather hear him on vibes than piano, though. I like his vibes playin' but I am totally effin' nuts about his piano chops. All of that lower register rumbling. Love it!

catesta Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 In addition to some of the ones already listed.... Richie Powell Carmell Jones I would love to have more Ray Nance recorded in a small group setting. What little I've heard of Lonnie Hillyer makes me think more recordings of him would not have been a bad thing, the same could be said of Charles Tolliver. Quote

couw Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I can't keep up as is. I am glad some people only recorded so much that I can actually be completist for once -- although 1) I wonder if that's my nature and 2) usually these same artists are so damn obscure that it is hard to find any recording. for their sake: all should have recorded more and get paid well, whatever.

ghost of miles Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 (edited) Carl Perkins Dodo Marmarosa Christopher Gaddy Sal Mosca (on a pianist kick, I guess) Sonny Berman John Gilmore (as a leader) Edited April 16, 2004 by ghost of miles Quote
ghost of miles Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Stan Hasselgard Joe Harriott Jimmy Lyons (as a leader) Kenny "Pancho" Hagood (flame away! ) Savoy Sultans Earl Hines w/Parker (anything!) Teri Thornton Joe Albany Quote
Late Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Carl Perkins My pick, too. Put him with Red Mitchell and Shelly Manne, line up a string of say, oh, six or seven trio sessions on Contemporary over the span of three years. I'd be happy. Very hard not to want to hear Gilmore leading his "own" quartet or quintet. Would like to hear Pat Patrick in such a setting too. (Didn't Patrick actually make a leader session at one time in the late 50's or early 60's?) Two more pianists: • Amos Trice • Ronnie Ball And how about a few more Cy Touff leader outings? Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I wish there were more recordings by Walter Davis, JR. I was watching yesterday the "One Night at Blue Note show" and now listening to "Davis Cup". I like his playing. Walter was a wonderful spirit and I wish for more too. So, which ones do you have?
