Gene Harris and The Three Sounds

Why have I not heard of them before!!??

 

[stu]

No excuses Mat! That 3 Sounds recording would be the 1962 version. Gene Harris with Anthony Simpkins bass, Bill Dowdy drums. 50 years have passed!!

'Out There'. Eric Dolphy with Ron Carter, George Duvivier, Roy Haynes.

I know! I've got some serious cathing up to do. But fortunatley there seems to be lots of their stuff on youtube. Any special recommendations, Stu?

 

[stu]

Mat. Quite a lot of the Three Sounds recordings seem to be out of stock just now. However my personal favourite CD is in stock 'Only The Best' . They cover some numbers that appeal to me such as St Thomas, That's All, Robbins Nest, Nothin But The Blues and others. But some recordings available include string sections and orchestral backgrounds that I am not to keen on.

I love this lady (and her singing as well).
Here is another of my favourite ladies - http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=lABULgZv-ZI

Here's quite an unusual combination - piano, Hammond organ and drums.

The pianist is doing a great job. Have you ever heard of him?

There is some absolutely delightful scat singing in the above video. The horns are great, the arrangement is great, the overall execution is great. Wish I had stumbled upon it earlier!

coleman hawkins encounters ben webster-verve (cd)
this cd formally titled blue saxes is certainly lovely. an on form ben and hawk, backed by the great oscar peterson quartet,jazz just does not get any better than this.gord

 

[stu]

That is a classic. A long time favourite of mine. With them guys it isn't just all about technique it's also about true feelings and telling a story. Amazing that there has been only 72 views!!!!
Excellent expressive music like this it seems, is just far too good to be popular.

You keep finding music like that gord and I'm never going to leave this forum
