another 40 minute masterpiece
Soultrane

improvisational without training wheels
what a trio
I only caught a couple minutes initially the other night while stoned to the b-jebus belt, and have no clue precisely wherein that was, but it was bold, ambitious, and out iykwim.
Drummer might be a tick loud
might just be the way they have it set up or the way the drummer's mic'ed.

this one from the start
barring any tones of saxual relations by jerome richardson
Mingus Tijuana Moods
recorded '57, released '62
Miles Sketches of Spain
recorded Nov '59-Mar '60, released Jul '60
Count me among the "I think Sketches of Spain is one of the greatest recordings of all time" crowd. How anybody can hate on it is beyond me.
ditto
also count me among the "i think tijuana moods is one of the greatest recordings of all time and heavily inspired miles" crowd
Had Miles listened to a pressing of Tijuana Moods?
Mingus Tijuana Moods

Miles Sketches of Spain

I remember one of my grad school professors waxing ecstatic about Tijuana Moods. My brother saw Miles five or six times, and my brother preferred the newer stuff. My preference was for the earlier ballads and Sketches of Spain.
Anyway I really like this young Emmet Cohen, and here he is in concert with Lew Tabackin. I had a couple of Lew Tabackin Big Band recordings about 40 some years ago.
