so emo!
Duke Pearson "Phantom", George Braith "Two Souls In One", John Coltrane "Blue Trane", Ike Quebec "It Might As Well Be Spring", John Patton "Understanding", fuck. So many. Not even getting into the 70s.
eric dolphy - out to lunch
sam rivers - involution
it changes all the time.......throw anything from 4000-4200 into a hat and draw randomly, it's that on point.
a few other faves:
I don't know about favorite but these have been getting play this week. My favorites would probablly be a Donald Byrd but it is hard to choose
postscript: i spun some otis this week, and will begrudingly admit that i liked parts of "love have mercy"
Norah Jones -Come Away With Me
More like SMOOTH
This LP is not raw by any standard. I love it, but RAW it ain't.
This thread will soon be like the Impulse and Soul LP threads, which generally just become a "post a jpeg of every LP on Blue Note"
Just go here , and try to listen to as many of these LPs as you can, good, smooth, raw, lousy. It won't be a waste of your time, I guarantee it. Just go through all the pages and find as many of them as possible and listen to them.
understated afro/jazz jams... nice, moody, definitely on the funkier side of the blue note spectrum.
Every Lee Morgan LP
Thad Jones "Vol. 3"
You're not talking about ebay though, right?
Its amazing how much battered copies of early Blue Note 10"s and LPs will go for on the 'bay...
I'd also like to add this one-
In the world of Blue Note 45s, I gotta mention:
Blues Mitchell - Collision In Black (perhaps my favorite)
Three Sounds - Sittin' Duck
Horace Silver - Psychedelic Sally
gotta mention 'Harlem River Drive'
& a bunch of great sides courtesy of Lou Donaldson
I know I'm forgetting plenty......
