    Oh, yeah, I forgot about that....I thought I had a couple of that too, but now that I think about it, where the hell is it, I don't think I've heard that in years......

    Now playing. Love this great 4 disc overview of the Impulse label. The book that compliments it ain't too shabby either!

    Just like Norman Granz deserves credit, Bob Thiele deserves much applause for his own vision in allowing musicians freedom on the Impulse label.

    Yes, it does indeed look like a very nice compilation, alamo54us!
    And is that the Ashley Kahn book you are referring to? I had been meaning to borrow it from the library--but then forgot about it. :shake:

    Indeed! I picked the book up at a discount price shortly after finding a used copy of the CD collection. Both fine additions to my libraries.
    I also enjoyed Kahn's books on "A Love Supreme" and "Kind of Blue."

    Hello. This old-school jazz dinosaur strikes again with:
    [​IMG]
    A very good vocal and instrumental album by Cannonball Adderley and Nancy Wilson, recorded in 1961. Not extraordinary but, when you need that kind of music, it totally delivers. Cannonball on alto throughout, I think.

    Going tenor with Hank's Straight No Filter

    Picked up the Connoisseur CD in the used bins (floating among several other Mobley Blue Note CD-Rs :cry: - really hate these things are finding their way into the used bins! If you don't want the CD-Rs, be sure to open them and check the CD itself. If it wasn't for the thread here in these forums I'd have never known any better).

    Love the melodies Hank and his trumpet players (Byrd, Morgan and Hubbard) lock into on these tracks. Great pick up. Unbelievable this wasn't released til '86.

    Since I am nothing except predictable :shake:, I have this album ready on my MP3 player right now:

    McCoy Tyner Live at Newport (1963). Another most excellent example of hard bop.

    I was thinking about female jazz singers, since I posted the Nancy Wilson album, and I'm strangely all verklempt right now: Liza with a Z could have been a great one.

    She is one of my idols, and I'll be devastated (well... you know what I mean) when she dies:



    Liza Minnelli, "God Bless the Child" (1972).
     
  20. Seeing McCoy Tyner 'live' should be a compulsory bucket list item for anyone with ears..

    Fastskill? Why did you abruptly change your avatar, my friend? How long do you think it will take this old woman to get used to the new one? Geez... No respect for your elders, I swear... ;)

    I saw George Adams with a sextet version of Mingus Dynasty in the early 90's with Craig Handy, Jack Walrath. The George Adams / Don Pullen group was so good, and they left us many great recordings.

    I have seen McCoy 25 times since 1990. Some of the best times with my wife.

  25. It was an accident, pressed the wrong button on my iPad. Was on the train etc. Big Man's tirade about bathroom avatars got me thinking if I could update mine on my ipad. Short answer, not really.
