I love Cannonball Adderley and in particular his collaborations with his brother Nat, but on this instead we get Miles Davis on probably the best record where he’s credited as session musician.
Stanley Turrentine and The Three Sounds - "Blue Hour" (1961)
One of the crown jewels of the #BlueNote catalog has been reissued. I love my mono original of this, scratches and all, but this new stereo reissue is terrific. Ideal rainy day music.
I dragged my feet getting this reissue, but I'm glad I found a copy. Really tremendous record and a fantastic pressing. Significant Herbie Hancock presence on this recording
Good morning! #NowPlaying Miles Davis Quintet - Freedom Jazz Dance (The Bootleg Series vol. 5) #vinyl#jazz@vinylrecords - it’s like having the quintet rehearse in my living room 🔥🔥🔥
have been wanting a copy for a while - just found at the local record fair. The cover is a bit discoloured, but the vinyl looks great - fingers crossed it will be when listening later today. 1982 Japanese pressing. #vinyl#jazz@vinylrecords
some crackles, but nothing that doesn’t add character, and what a fantastic record to play from vinyl, the sound is just sublime. @vinylrecords#vinyl#jazz
I'm going to have a running thread of music I buy. A record (ahem) for me really. Because I lack discipline in actually giving music enough time and this might help. If someone else discovers a new artist then great. Mute #KeefsNewTunes if it's unwelcome.
Having enjoyed seeing Trish Clowes (saxophone) and Ross Stanley (piano) as part of a quintet last night, giving their album Journey to Where a proper listen. Some originals. Some standards. All new to me. It's a cliché to say it's like a conversation. But it is. Best album I've bought this year I reckon. @jazz#jazz#KeefsNewTunes
In more listening to albums I bought on Friday featuring someone I saw live on Saturday news, Brad Meldhau brings his talents to Eagles Point by Chris Potter. Add in Brian Blade and John Patitucci and you're not going to go wrong. And they don't of course. It's a good listen although nothing here demanded my undivided attention. @jazz#KeefsNewTunes#jazz
