ReplyDeleteHave this on a cassette from way down the years - hissy and badly ripped.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nick for the improved sound. I think this is a special - not the best (or my most cherished) - but a special recording.
Also a rare occaison, maybe the only one that Villaroel has recorded with members of the BAG.
BIG THX!...
ReplyDeleteGreatly appreciated, Nick!
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Nick, like Ernst I had a rip on a cdr but with some surface noises. As I said I contacted first Manuel to see if he still have one copy but he didn't have no more lp and he haven't even kept a copy for him in any format, he was even searching for it so I sent him your rip yesterday at night and asked him to tell me few words about this session and this particular band, here is what he said:
ReplyDelete"Baikida Carroll contacted me thanks to Anthony Braxton who called me from time to time for sessions at his home. Nana Vasconcelos and I met at the chateauvallon jazz festival in 1972 where I presented my Machi Oul big band, he was playing with Don Cherry. This group that has recorded "Orange Fish tears" has never done concerts."
Thanks correct silence for some background - always appreciated.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much. I only knew Baikida Carrol's first Soul Note album, this is a revelation.
ReplyDeleteThank you, been looking for this for an age
