JAZZ A CONFRONTO 10 - JOHNNY GRIFFIN - HLL 101-10

The volume n 10 of Jazz A Confronto series, by Johnny Griffin, is for now the only one that has been reissued on CD, thanks to collaboration between HORO and the Atomic Jazz. The CD is available at many sites, as JAZZLOFT, amazon.ca, Worlds Records and more. Precisely for this reason, you will not find this recording on shared on this blog, but I gladly make you hear the first track, MUSIC INN BLUES, dedicated to one of the historic jazz clubs in Rome. If you like this, and how it would be possible otherwise, buy it! In addition, the reissue contains “The Pasta Parade”, a tune based on Gershwin’s “Strike Up the Band”, not included in the original vinyl edition, but included in the anthology of unreleased and alternative tracks, published in Jazz A Confronto 17.

After the closure of the notorious host and the subsequent crash downs of my hard disk, this blog has stopped updating.

I will try to re-upload these great records, now even more consumed by listening, and I decided to re-start from this.

Welcome back!

HORO 34 - OSCAR VALDAMBRINI & DINO PIANA 

JAZZ A CONFRONTO 14 - ENRICO RAVA - HLL 101-14_New Upload

It takes just two lines to introduce this record:

The first is that in this quartet has developed the genius of Massimo Urbani, born into a world of lyricism and expressive power, with a creative multi-language, in a space "unique", but without any border.
The second thing is that this disc, for too many years, has remained caged in its beautiful form of vinyl, without the possibility of releasing free in the space, as the stars are ...
