Recent Finds

[Electrode]

The 6/8 drums on "Jelly Jam" on the McDuff are nasty. I had no idea that it was a cover of an early Hello People tune. I also like "Le Miroir Noir" on the David Baker. $3 for that Mystic Moods sounds about right and worth it. That's an Art Blakey I don't have. ATCQ sample there.

Art blakely was 28 dollars but I was happy to spend it. So many dope samples are attached to a turd of a tune but chant for bu is great the whole way through.

Those are some good finds but is that a Caucasian flesh colored slip mat in the first video? I’m confused by what I’m seeing there.

It puts the 45 on the skin or something something

Here's what I found this past week.

That birds of a feather looks interesting. I looked it up on discogs and the YouTube audio is broken but I’m happy to say it made the list ““TOP 50 JAZZ RECORDS OF ALL TIME ! There is already a list for #1-#20 this is actually #21-#50, NOT IN ORDER YET.”

 

[Electrode]

I don't know about it being one of the best 50 jazz albums of all time, but it's of the avant-garde, creeping insanity variety (similar to the Mark Nauseef and Art Ensemble Of Chicago's "Paris Sessions"), a sound which I have been taking a liking to. There is a live TV performance of "1, 2, Albert Ayler". The woman is Julie Tippetts (credited as "ex-Julie Driscoll" on the back!)

Speaking of 'scogs lists, Robert Fripp's "Exposure" and AEOC's "Fanfare For The Warrior" both made the "100 Records That Set The World On Fire (While No One Was Listening)" cut, as did SME's "Karyobin", their record from three years prior to "Birds Of A Feather".

I'm a fan of these Freedom, Jazzlore, Affinity, etc. LPs as an alternative to the more expensive, yet only slightly older, original press counterparts.

Ripe for a mashup. Ray-gamuffin Bryant: Up Ahmed the Rock
Or something like that.

 

[dizzybull]

Was it worth 14 bucks? Maybe not. But it’s not bad.

Osmosis is psych rock from Boston, fronted by Charlie Mariano. Robin Kenyatta is solid jazz fusion with Wolfgang Dauner on the clavinet. Melinda soundtrack is a minty DJ promo copy.

 

[ketan]

yeah, that robin kenyatta is a long time fav










the muhal richard abrams also has something nice on it... can't remember now.

 

[billbradley]

I picked up a copy of that Kenyatta last month at Goodwill. The cover was rough but the record was clean so I couldn't pass it up for a buck.

There is an unwritten law that all fusion is good. Until the soloing starts.
