@@lesliehayton2929 Then you know what I'm talkin' about.

[@lesliehayton2929]

Yes indeed I’ve been fortunate enough to have seen James and ray , missed Elvin a very good session though !

[@derkzweers7604]

That's some magic indeed 👍

Saw this excellent pianist in the late 70’s with - Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers - at a live gig at Nick Jazz Cafe in Holland. Great hard-bop pianist folks, and this lovely album shows his craft and magnificently backed by Ray and Elvin. What more do you want? Dig, G’day & Cheers!

I saw James Williams with Art Blakey in Munich at The Domicile around the same time Fabulous times 🎶great music that lives on 🎶

[@ronaldunkel2681]

@@theawoznitza5586 Exactly Thea. This fabulous jazz music needs to be preserved and is after all America’s only art form. Be well & Cheers!

[@theawoznitza5586]

Absolutely Ronald, almost retired and living in Australia, not many jazz gigs in the cities mostly small jazz clubs keep the music flowing and it’s wonderful that a some young people are discovering the music and excited to create

@@theawoznitza5586 I know it all to well that the jazz scene was very minimal in Oz. I’m from the Sunshine Coast in Qld and currently staying in Italy. In the 80’s/90’s i used to do jazz programs in Townsville, Buderim and Noosa for the community radio stations. Oz jazzers, in those days, were more into Dixieland and big swing bands (and Winifred Atwell). My preference was bop/hard-bop which i presented. Got lots of phone enquiring listeners because they had never before heard that kind of very exciting jazz. They are very dear memories. Good talking to you, G’day & a swingin’ Cheers!

[@bmodextreme]

I thought those phineas newborn albums were the only ray/elvin collabs! Very exciting

[@m4x358]

Check out 'Something for Lester"... you will be delightfully surprised to see who's on piano.

[@bmodextreme]

@@m4x358 😱 the liner notes to the phineas album implied it was their only recording. Thank you for introducing me to this album

Фортепиано очень открыто, когда "джемуют" другие- отходит на задний план,- хорошая работа инженеров.

[@JG-dr6ge]

Thank you!

[@lesliehayton2929]

I’m sure you’re correct , a happy day to you !

[@bluzrok-Oleg]

Когда много "меди" трудно настроиться на простое прослушивание; начинаешь анализировать- где и кто ( что) звучит. Если слушать сложную музыку фоном- то как-то это не совсем правильно.

[@georgeprosser3038]

My first encounter Fabulous Thanks mister/mister

[@bluzrok-Oleg]

Спасибо, не слышал. Очень интимное звучание, иногда без духовых- даже интереснее слушать.( вечером)

[@lesliehayton2929]

When you are talking about ‘copper’ is that cymbals ?
