I hope you're kidding, because otherwise
you are completely clueless.

SoulOnIce · April 2007

And I reaaaallly like "Revelations" but I have a
sentimental spot for Calvin Keyes "Shawn-Neeq" just
because it was the first one I ever found and bought.

obviously kidding

i spelled it "razizm"

markus71 · April 2007

I hate black jazz....I even think the Dave Brubeck quartet sucked because their bassplayer was black.

this or either of The Awakening lp's

The Raise Up · April 2007

Walter Bishop Jr - Coral Keys, in particular Our November.

I think people are getting "Black Jazz" the label & "Black Jazz" as a genre confused.

cool site.

favorites: revelation, 1st awakening, adams apple
bassline: the one off talk to my lady
cover: the one with all the
(how come roland haynes got to have a drawing??)
favorite musical cover: summertime/walter bishop jr.

i find lot of black jazz kind of snoozy. but hten again, im no musician and just want to hear music with the rhythym section up front.

the song "revelation" is amazing though
he covers are works of art.

how is "plenty good eaton"? heard it once, longago, and didnt really like it. did i miss something?

rape_donkeys · April 2007

nope

holmes · April 2007

Swayze · April 2007

not on BJ, but damn right, that version of Kush is great. Just listened to that on Saturday, in fact.

I also like that bass line off the Gene Russell that tripledouble mentioned.

pencilface · May 2007

i like Doug Carn's "revelation" aswell as the rest of you. plus Kellee Patterson's - "maiden Voyage" LP. I've been enjoying Calvin Key's - "criss cross" on Ovation alot recently aswell...

cpeetz · May 2007

Both the Awakening lps are stellar.
They get my vote.

inVrs · May 2007

another vote for the awakening. "mirage" was one of the first jazz lp i picked up, so it might be a litte nostalgic love. on the other hand, it`s just SERIOUS business.
but it`s hard to pick just one. there`s not a single weak release on the label.
