What did you think of the kick drum on "The Rajah?" nt - ghost of olddude55 08:40:52 02/21/21 (7)

  .....some of the more A list, flashy, drummers. But what a career. I think this one is one of the best Tone Poets for music as well as sound.
  
  I have a CD of "Standards" by Morgan, which is another one where they had the performances in the vault for 20 years, or so, before releasing them. Was it really such an embarrassment of riches at Blue Note that they could just shelve this stuff forever? It boggles my little mind.

    The record store had the TP for $30 and a used Japanese pressing complete with obi for $65. Needless to say...

    - That is a great LP. I cannot remember which issue I have at another location. nt - alaskahiatt 15:14:21 02/21/21 (0)

    - Ooohhh.....that one is on my list, as well as some of the Verve/UMG... - viridian 14:54:35 02/21/21 (3)
      .....pressings. Peggy Lee Black Coffee, the two by Nina Simone and Out of the Cool. I'm out of money until I sell some gear.
      
      I did buy a Tangospinner sub platter and feet for my FrankenRega off of Audiomart this morning. Fingers crossed.
      - I'm also looking forward to "Out of the Cool." - ghost of olddude55 15:58:25 02/21/21 (2)

        I've already got a boatload of Nina Simone stuff, couple of them are UMG reissues pressed in Holland.

        ...opined that the Pure Pleasure Out Of The Cool was superior to the new UMG for the same $. I have not checked that out yet, but my experience with PP is not so good so I might just go with the UMG.
        
        Apparently, not all of the Impulse master tapes were destroyed in the big Universal fire. - ghost of olddude55 18:03:17 02/21/21 (0)

        According to Michael Fremer, the Verve/AP reissue of Out of the Cool will be cut all analog from the original master tape.
        Don't think I've got anything from Pure Pleasure, but the reissue of Roy Haynes' Out of the Afternoon from Verve/AP is outstanding.

:-) Which Morgan LP? I only have Cornbread at the moment and it's the Tone Poet copy I picked up last year, or in 2019.

Sometimes one just needs to get some of that Dan goin' :-)

Just finished side 2 and am awaiting a pizza I just made to cook and will have some red wine to wash it all down with.

    Very cool. Just finished dinner and watching Ron Pratt on YouTube rescue a car that almost slid down a ravine in the snow while I ate. My Friday night ritual.
    - Never heard of him, just checked him out. Cool stuff, but I do watch Battlebots. Nt - viridian 08:23:13 02/20/21 (0)
