What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 28-10-2011
Music Head Wrote:from my library (cd)
Time for one of my rare jazz masterpieces. Yes I love jazz. Just don't have that much. Hey, you can't buy everything. Not so much a fan of the new age/modern jazz, but the traditional variety can just mellow me out. It and classical are my exceptions to the dislike of instrumental music. It doesn't need words. This was recorded in 1964 with McCoy Tyner (piano), Jimmy Garrison (bass), Elvin Jones (drums) and of course, John on sax. Recognized by most as his greatest album, A Love Supreme's spiritual inspiration were John's dedication to God. Divided into four parts, this is meant to be one piece of work, so I cannot say there is a best track. It's all superb. Love finding these old live clips of the masters of the genre. By jazz standards the album sold quite well and is recognized as one of the greatest of all time. John Coltrane passed away in 1967, from liver cancer at the young age of 40.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

found this one at Corey's store yesterday, bought it on the strength of the short two minute listens to each link and your high grading...cant wait to listen to this on my stereo to get the full sound of it(youtube sometimes does not do justice to music of this age)...dont know when i'll get to review it for myself as i have so many newly purchased ones to listen to and also the odd re listen of some that i know also

Most of this disc is a live performance from 1954, recorded in Cologne. Probably the best recorded live Billie I've heard yet. The band are good, and her voice is still relatively intact.
The goodies on this one are the bonus tracks. Four songs recorded for the Aladdin label in 1952 while she was between Decca, and Verve contracts, plus one from 1942 that she slipped out as Lady Day for Capitol Records while under contract to Columbia. Wouldn't say they're rare songs, but it's good to have them all in one place.
AllMusic 4+/5 stars.

Very recently, I listenedto Ornette Coleman's "Free Jazz". I have to say that I'm quite impressed, even if the compositions tend to go on to long. Almost as good as his "The Shape of Jazz to Come" album

The recording is amazing. Make sure you turn the bugger up...
One of those "band in your living room" albums.

Picked up this set of 13 big-band era multi-disc compilations a few years back, at the annual library sale. Well
worth the $5 for the set. Most never opened. It's one of those Time/Life series things. This particular album is
for Duke Ellingtons Cotton Club years (1927-1930). Time travel is possible. I'll take my Nobel now. I rolled me up
a big doobie, laid back in the recliner in my room, put this on, under the headphones, eyes closed, and I was
there. Love this kind of stuff. This 2 record set covers those early years of the Dukes association with NYC's
Cotton Club. A whites only club in those years, except for the performers of course. Duke had just made a deal with
promoter Irving Mills to handle his gigs. A regular here was part of it. Radio started broadcasting gigs from the
club and Duke Ellington became a household name. Duke's peak years were the forty's, so these recordings could be
considered very early. A few tracks have vocals, but mostly instrumental. I do not have a best and worst track on
albums like this. I love it all, just the fact that something done 84 years ago still exists today. Before the nice job of doctoring up by Time-Life, I'm sure these tracks sounded terrible, but they would have still been music to my ears. All of these albums are treasures.
