First set very strong. Prevost, as on the other sets, is on fire. Great free jazz drummer which is not a common mode for him.
An idea whose time has come With and without The Beatles: The 20 greatest George Harrison songs of all time
I agree with "All Things Must Pass" at #1, but the list is nullified for me by the absence of "If I Needed Someone", possibly my favorite ever Beatles song. I guess being much more a fan of the Byrds has something to do with that.
Queen Ida and the Bon Temps Zydeco Band, The Old Waldorf, San Francisco Ca., 9/7/1980. Ida Lewis Guillory is the first of her gender to lead a Zydeco band, lady can make that squeeze box ROCK!
It's an unsettling story at times. There's an opera written by Benjamin Britten based on the novel. It's actually one of the few operas I have in my music collection, but no matter how hard I try, I can't enjoy opera singing.
Big Cecil fan here. He's got a similar sensibility to playing in/out as Richard Davis does, maybe not to the same extent, but who does? Here's a favorite of mine, featuring some basso delicioso: Pharoah Sanders: Black Unity Pharoah Sanders — soprano and tenor saxophone, balafon Marvin "Hannibal" Peterson — trumpet Carlos Garnett — flute, tenor saxophone Joe Bonner — piano Stanley Clarke, Cecil McBee — bass Norman Connors, Billy Hart — drums Lawrence Killian — conga, balafon, talking drum, percussion Thirty-seven glorious minutes of attainment and ascension wrapped up in a cosmic/spiritual burn. While everyone is vitally important to this coming off so well the Clarke/McBee subharmonic string theory is the vibrational key to this journey. And if you were leaving for the evening I'd slip these into your pocket: I've got the Hat of Volumes 1 & 2, which have been re-re-released as two separate volumes as they were issued initially. Stunning live date with John Carter and Andrew Cyrille. And this fine live date with Sam Rivers: And while we're on the Rivers thing and great bassists this one is a bit of a comp that features both McBee and Arild Anderson!
Railroad Earth, Terra Alta W.Va. 8/7/2004. Big Band met Bluegrass, they had a baby and they called it Railroad Earth. Fantastic sound, even the purist has to love this music.
Vibracathedral Orchestra - Wisdom Thunderbolt 2010, VHF Records This is awesome... Chris Corsano hops in for the second track.
