I sure have! Those were my glory fusion days. DiMieola's Casino is still a favorite of mine. Such a great band!

Totally get that. The place to start is not with this album then. I would suggest something with Ella. She's the most likable IMO. Check out her scat abilities on this tune. Picture her as a saxophone in the band. She's improving like mad!

N&G Friends! Thought I'd copy a reddit comment I made to get your opinion in the interest of civilized conversation. Sometimes I find myself in a quandary. What happens when you're a HUGE Grant Green fan, dig Ike Quebec and think Blue Note has their finger on the pulse of Jazz? You're...

Tangent to this comment, but I read somewhere (a long while ago) that Steve Gadd was the original drummer on this RTF album and those masters were lost/stolen and they hired Lenny White (who is fantastic) to re-record. I'm a huge Gadd fan and he pretty much OWNED 70s fusion for a long while and...

100% agree. Jimmy had SO MANY LPs released that it's hard to know one from another, but Root Down was a standout. Perfect for Classics. It's on Verve. Has VMP released any VERVE? I can't think of any off the top of my head...

Bring it on! Just got 100 in today that I'm slowly adding. Nothing mind-blowing but cheap/good jazz.

I read that same message about those rogue Erroll Garner LPs here and saw the order shortly after and thought it may be someone from N&G. Glad they arrived and all is cool! Appreciate the kind words guys! :) Message me here anytime and I can give you 10% off my Discogs pricing. Plus...

So true! The Grant Greenery is beautiful THERE! And very few have visited!

It's a good LP and I'll be glad to get a newly remastered version of it, but when will we be leaving Staxville? I want to see other places too! Like CHESSLAND! Or IMPULSEBURG! Or PRESTIGE ISLAND!

Probably not. Did you have any out of stock items in your order? If not that, the mail has been inconsistent lately. :(

In particular on this forum I don't know that Marcus has any Blue Note albums? But generally the BN crowd is going for the "classic" artists. I do like MM, but when I think of him, I hear that slap n' pop bass, which he is a MASTER at! I dig that but I've got to be in the mood, as it carries...

This has been on my lower radar since the Stax unboxing sessions. Although I was really disappointed to hear that Cropper and King weren't even together at the time it was recorded. Still, both great players.

This idea is very interesting from my perspective, to pick 'favorites', but I am likely the most illiterate jazz fan when it comes to understanding the "series" groupings. I'm sure there is some sort of logic, but it's like a foreign language to me. One day I'll have to spend the afternoon to...

Enjoyed this, thanks for posting! I knew next to nothing (ok, actually nothing) about Zamrock. It's close to my interest zone but I wasn't able to pull the trigger on this.

Is that Lenny Tristano? I only know him from Billy Bauer on guitar. That's OLD SCHOOL jazz. And decent, but not highly in demand I would reckon.

That is funny to think about. Maybe with Freddie Hubbard on kazoo...

I love this obsession and can completely associate with it myself. I did not see the prior posts where you must have expressed the admiration for this LP (which I also dig), but I'm going to revisit it, in fact, I MUST do that now after reading and enjoying the details and care that have gone...

My impression is that you can get on the "next" release if you join before it launches, although this is a new approach. I would think they leave themselves some wiggle room to work in new customers before they ask for the final count. And with all the mess happening now, there is probably...

Wondering the exact same thing!
