Bill Evans Trio...Live at the Village Vanguard
Miles davis...Kind of Blue
Willie Dixon...I AM the Blues

Ah, Live at the Village Vanguard. What a great disc. I really wish that they would put the extra takes at the END of the disc, though. I love the tunes, but I would prefer to hear the album the way it was released, and then hear the extra tracks after that. But, I will never tire of this disc, and I guess I really can't complain about more of Scott LaFaro's playing...

er, um -

"before I close my eyes..." - Jon Raney Trio

(you reading this Ed?)

:>

Duke Ellignton - Money Jungle
Macy Gray - On How Life Is
Tori Amos - Under the Pink

Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue

That's my "What would you take with you to a deserted Island" - record.

I can hear it over and over again, it never bores me.

Ornette Colman's 'The Art of the Improvisers'

Golden Smog / Wierd Tales

PS I like that Bill Frisel stuff...I heard he is working with Danny Barnes of the Bad Livers lately... I think the project is named the Willies...Has anyone seen these guys?

jc

Just mentioned on the "other side" that Christian McBride's new album SciFi has been in my CD player this weekend.

On heavy rotation:

Edgar Meyer--Bach Unaccompanied Cello Suites
Meyer/Ma/O'Connor--Appalachian Journey
Haden/Jones--Steal Away
Bill Evans Trio--all the recordings with Scott LaFaro
except one I can't find--grrr! has anyone been able to find the 1960 Birdland Sessions?

Takes out 5 CDs
Replaces them with:

TooL- Undertow
Lure609- Mindshift
Primus- The Brown Album
Aphex Twin- i care because you do...
and ..(drum roll please)

the Cure- Bloodflowers

Oh, FUQHORN, where art thou?

Dire Straits - Alchemy Live ;)

Ozomatli - Embrace the Chaos
DJ Krush - Zen
Earl Harvin Trio - Unincorporated
Bjork - Vespertine
Elliot Smith - Figure 8
Keith Jarrett - Live in Paris

Not too DB-centric, but all great discs.
:confused: <--- Ed listening to DJ Krush and Bjork

Lets see: Modern Jazz Quartet/Milt Jackson Quintet (Percy Heath)
Glen Moore - Nude Bass Ascending
Petrushka (Stravinsky)- Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra
One of those Steve Lacy doing Monk tunes from the early 60's (Buell Neidlinger - one of the greatest bass mysteries in my opinion)
Ernest Ranglin - that album he did in Senegal.

That's it (all with Double Bassists).

edgar meyer - cello suites
bill evans trio - live at the vanguard
schubert - string quintet (emerson + rostaprovich)
miles davis - birth of the cool

Louis Armstrong and his All Stars, "Paris Jazz Concert"

Believe it or not... the CD I'm currently listening to is: Madonna, "Music."

No 'real' bass lines. I've been playing along with it on bass to buff up on dance grooves against the background of blank canvas that is in dire need of a funky bass line.

Michel Camilo - "On Fire"
Dixie Dregs - "Industry Standard"
Cachao - "Master Sessions I"
John Fogerty - "Blue Moon Swamp"
Brian Setzer - "Ignition"
and...a just finished cd by my own bluegrass band...

The current stack includes:

Kings of Convenience - Quiet is the New Loud
Le Orme - Felona e Sorona
King & Moore - Cliff Dance
Chicago - Stone of Sisyphus
A bunch of compilation discs from online groups I'm involved in.

-dh

Tom Waits - 'Rain Dogs'. Definitely DB, nice playing too...

On heavy rotation:

Edgar Meyer--Bach Unaccompanied Cello Suites
Meyer/Ma/O'Connor--Appalachian Journey
Haden/Jones--Steal Away
Bill Evans Trio--all the recordings with Scott LaFaro

Mark;

I've been looking for the 1960 Birdland Sessions CD for a REALLY long time! A dealer in Australia assured me he could find it used but he finally gave up. I now have an open 'back order' pending with a place in Europe that will send a new or used copy if and when one turns up. I kind of hope the fact that it cannot be found means that it is being acquired, remixed and repackaged like the recent Getting Sentimental BE3 recording with Michael Moore so we can all hear it. If I do get it before the hypothetical 'then' I will definitely post here about it.

BTW now listening to 'It Just So Happens" Bill Frisell/Gary Peacock Duo

Peacock's solo version of Red River Valley is wonderful!

Edger Meyer- Bach Cello Suites
Bob Dylan- Freewheelin
Masada string trio- Birthday Concert
Fred Hersch- Songs without words
Jason Moran- Black Stars


Figured this looked like a good thread, might as well bring it back, since I'm new and don't know many people aboard, and what they listen to.

Fu Manchu - King of the Road
Tool - 10 000 Days
The Police - Greatest Hits
Primus - The brown album

Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue

That's my "What would you take with you to a deserted Island" - record.

Bobby Pinson - Songs For Somebody

I actually found that in an IAJE bin last winter in NY, along with another rare album with Scott Lafaro and Steve Kuhn(I think). It's surprisingly great recording quality, and is a wonderful album! I'm still very much stuck on Arrival of victor feldman and Ornette! right now...gotta pull the 1960s birdland back out.

Playlist now:
Wilco-Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Francois Rabbath- Bach Suites in G major

In the house it's Joni Mitchell's Hejira.

The latest Amy Winehouse CD.

Blend equal parts Phil Spector wall-of-sound girl-group production, hip-hop beats, bad girl/hard-living lyrics and a powerful, soulful voice.

I got this one thinking my wife would dig it but I can't push the eject button.

In the car;
Merle Haggard "Serving 190 proof",
Merle Haggard "Back to the Barrooms",
George Jones "The Essential George Jones: The Spirit of Country"
Willie Nelson "The Essential Willie Nelson".

I'm going through a phase.

Came in handy too. The bandleader launched into Jones' "Heartache" Thursday night and I played it down cold.

Do you mean "Straight No Filter"?

Guilty! I was listening to internet radio and that's how it was listed.
