Elvin Jones – On The Mountain

On the Mountain is a jazz album by drummer Elvin Jones with keyboardist Jan Hammer and bassist Gene Perla recorded in 1975 and originally released on Perla’s PM label.

“This 1975 date for the brilliant drummer, with Jan Hammer on keyboards and bassist Gene Perla, is a minor, if somewhat overlooked, classic from the tail-end of the early ’70s to the mid-70s’ run of great jazz fusion releases. ” – Jim Todd/AllMusic.

Sonny Rollins' "A Night At The Village Vanguard" is a classic. And if you have a good stereo, the newest version of this iconic jazz album, "A Night At The Village Vanguard: The Complete Masters," is worth the upgrade. Here's the link to my review. https://paulsemel.com/sonny-rollins-a-night-at-the-village-vanguard-the-complete-masters-review/ 🎶🎷

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE GARSON “Mike doesn’t just play the piano. He eats it.”—Chick Corea. Back in 1973, minds were blown when Mike’s piano solo ripped through the title track of David Bowie’s iconic album, ALADDIN SANE. Mike’s “passionate pyrotechnics” captured attention as much as any “guitar god miracle,” yet “with a mastery of theory that perked ears and lowered turned-up noses of many a classical purist.”  For over three decades since, he has continued to support Bowie--one of rock music’s most original auteurs, appearing on some of Bowie’s best-known albums: DIAMOND DOGS, YOUNG AMERICANS (with John Lennon) and OUTSIDE (with Brian Eno).

Bowie said of Mike: “He is exceptional…there are very, very few musicians, let alone pianists, who naturally understand the movement and free thinking necessary to hurl themselves into experimental or traditional areas of music, sometimes, ironically, at the same time. Mike does this with such enthusiasm that it makes my heart glad just to be in the same room with him.”

As a composer, Garson has written over 4300 pieces of music, with over half as classical works, and his music has been used in major films (SEVEN, STIGMATA, etc.). He is also considered to be a leading interpreter of George Gershwin and György Ligeti. By age 13, Garson was studying at the Julliard School of Music and later studied under keyboard legends Bill Evans and Herbie Hancock. Currently he directs the Celebrate Bowie tours, does solo concerts, and continues to collaborate with other artists.

I’m very grateful for the times I’ve been able to work with Mike—always enlightening, educational, and edifying. When I had a radio show on NPR he was my guest, and we filled the hour with as much of Mike resume as possible. Listen here: https://johnnyjblairsingeratlarge.bandcamp.com/album/billtown-bus-stop-radio-hour-with-mike-garson Also check out a video I made (w/musical support from Eric Biondo + art by Nathan Wagoner) for my song “Night Garden” featuring Mike on lead piano. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KanYucaQUk Meanwhile, HB MG for your years of loving the piano and producing hours of joy from it.

Elvin Jones, A Metronome In His Blood And Hands

Elvin Jones was one of the first musicians to define a drummer’s role and how they are supposed to react. His playing, with a few other changes, defined how to drum player should function, and in the five years-stint he was with the John Coltrane Quartett, he helped shape the industry at large.

The Earl Hines Trio ‎ "Here Comes Earl "Fatha" Hines" 私のアイドル、ハインズのフライング・ダッチマン！ 前出Blue Noteの2名盤に続いて、本作はハインズの名盤です。 1966年1月17日、オリジナルはContact CM-6、本盤は、# FlyingDutchman ‎レーベル、RJL-2567 (FD-10147)｢RCA不滅のジャズ1800｣、日本再発盤。 ｢数あるハインズの��テレオ盤の中でも一際異彩を放つ秀作。ベース、ドラムに当代最高の二人を従えて演じる堂々たる奏法は、ジャンルを超えてあらゆるジャズ・ファン必聴のもの｣と。 ｢ピアノを伴奏の地位から解放した偉大なる父｣アール・ハインズの最高傑作とも評される名盤！演奏やスタイルはもとより、ジャズ史上での計り知れない功績、唯一無二の価値、存在そのもの、特に日本では超がつくほどの過小評価、これが一般的には有名ではない理由。彼のアルバムは、針��落とした時に笑顔が思い浮かぶことが素晴らしいんです。それだけ、自身が演奏を楽しんでいる証拠。だから、ハインズは聴く人を幸せにできるんですよね。 録音評は...特筆するようなリアリティはないです。音圧も低いし、正直録音は並かなぁ。 新しいのに古い、古いのに新しい、がハインズの魅力。 Reissue, Stereo Japan 1982 #EarlHines (p) #RichardDavis (b) #ElvinJones (ds) Liner Notes - #StanleyDance 録音当時ジョン・コルトレーン・カルテットで活躍する若手トップ・ミュージシャンのエルヴィン・ジョーンズ、リチャード・デイヴィスと収録した空前絶後のセッション。ジャズの伝統に敬意を寄せるリズム・セクションと、常に前向きなハインズのアプローチが一体化した、ジャズ史上に残る名作！との評。 まさに、Swing Piano! 小気味良くスイングするピアノが心地よい。古き良き時代の雰囲気を伝えるオールド・ファッションなスタイルのアール・ハインズの軽快なタッチ、モダンなリズムに乗ってスイング。世代を超えた名演、肩肘張らずに単純に楽しめるピアノ・トリオの名作。ホッと一息つきたいときは、こういうジャズがいいですね。 Side 2-1 "Stanley Steamer"、リチャードがベースラインを逸脱しながらピアノに絡む本作のハイライト！。ミディアム・テンポで次々に繰り出されるマイナーの調べ。名人が名人を刺激して丁々発止と渡り合う。この組合わせでよくぞ録ってくれたものだと。 ラスト、"Dream Of You"はとてもリラックスしたナンバーで、ジャズの余韻に浸りながら聴き終えるのが、堪りません。 ハインズの国際的に賞賛されるソロ・セットのContactの "Spontaneous Explorations"と同じスタジオで録音された、これはFathaがこれまでに作った最もエキサイティングなアルバムの1つだと。 スタンリー・ダンスの文章によると、この日のハインズは風邪をこじらせて、スタジオに入ってからも気分は沈みがち。｢今夜は調子が出ないね｣とピアノの前に座ったとたんに彼はそう呟いたそう。しかしながら、結果は逆。ハインズのタッチは快調、その素晴らしい理由は共演者が生み出す刺激によるもの。彼らは自分達の演奏した"Shoe Shine Boy"の2テイク目を聴いたとたん、椅子から飛び上がって歓声を発したと。 #jazz #fuzey #vinyl #jazzvinyl #vinylcollection #jazzrecords #recordcollection #ジャズ #スイングジャーナル #レコード ※作品を知り、ジャズの素晴らしさを伝えたい。様々なソースをアレンジ、先輩諸氏に感謝。 https://www.instagram.com/p/B6FZo3mpk8K/?igshid=1slfecu5c1fel
