#NowPlaying Miles Davis - On The Corner (with HT to @openculture for reminding me!) #jazz #funk

this boxset is the main reason I still have a CD player at all 😅

my trumpet player brother had ordered the boxset, but soon after it was sent out to him the whole run was recalled due to production issues; customers who had already received theirs could keep it, and were sent a new box once the production had been re-done. this made for an amazing present (no problem in my box) which I have enjoyed in three countries on three continents, for a decade and a half. thanks, @gijslevelt! 🎺💿

Charles Mingus - Mingus at Monterey

Hard to find 1964 set played at the Monterey Jazz Festival. This was originally released on Mingus' own Jazz Workshop label, and has been re-released, with the estate's blessing, on a 2LP version from Candid.

Well worth hunting down.

this deadcast includes tales of the hog farm's skeleton crew, official parking lot ground control, led by the late calico, aka ruby, aka elisabeth van der mei, the dead's wildly heady link to underground #nyc #jazz. former ESP-disk' employee, down beat writer, & WBAI host. been unable to locate any airchecks, but calico's 1967-1970 show, sounds of today, sounds way awesome (often leading into bob fass's #radio unnameable). incredibly unlikely, but who's got the tapes?! dead.net/deadcast/enjoying-rid

Calico, in pig tails, looking boss

50 jazz tracks for your streaming shuffle, no.2

Art Blakey. Ping Pong

Blakey's band was the incubator for a wide range of jazz talent from the 50's to 70's, and was a great example of how bop drove the development of jazz in the 1950s (and into the 1960s). This track is typical of Blakey's format; a great rhythm & melody offering a structure for a series of exploratory solos.

[The version I like is from Roots & Herbs, but there are also some great live versions]

if you come across the CTI logo, buy with confidence - I can’t think of a single dud in that catalogue

CTI was Creed Taylor’s label, recording in the studio of and engineered by the legendary Rudy van Gelder of Blue Note fame - most are fusion jazz, and many funk-oriented and often sampled. many are big band arrangements with a roster of legends including Ron Carter, Steve Gadd, Billy Cobham, Jack DeJohnette, Jon Faddis, George Benson, Hubert Laws, Airto, and the list goes on and on

John Handy - Live at the Monterey Jazz Festival. Each side one long track. Side 2 Spanish Lady is an all time jammer...held down by a slinky guitar groove, with an epic violin solo followed a sax solo that takes it over the top. Amazing live recording too. Bought this five years ago for $10 and still see it for that cheap. #nowplaying @vinylrecords #jazz
