Moanin' [VINYL]

Search: Moanin (2)
by: Art Blakey

Release Date June 11, 2008
An amazingly inventive album, and the one that introduced me to bop. The stunning horn interplay on tracks 1/2 is particularly memorable. Some tracks, particularly Are you Real? may seem a bit cheesy but perservere and you will grow to love this album. An iconic piece, truly good, fun Jazz. A great record in my opinion, you should also try the colaboration with Thelonious Monk if you enjoy this. Near essential if you want to sample a range of bop sounds of yesteryear.

Out of Time: the Immediate Anthology

Search: Moanin (2)
by: Chris Farlowe

Release Date April 19, 1999
Never a pin-up, Chris Farlowe's commercial standing failed to match his critical success. This compilation of mid-1960s songs consists of booming, brassy soul-inflected r&b. His version of 'Satisfaction' comes across with the same ardour as a Stax soul track by Pickett or Redding, both of whom also have songs represented here. There are four Jagger/Richards songs in all, including Farlowe's no.1, 'Out Of Time'. His impassioned growl never lets up and by the standards of the time these recordings can boast a pretty dense sound. My favourite track here is Farlowe's own 'North, South, East, West' which is both fast and heavy and features some breathless bass drum work. Farlowe depended mostly on outside material and at least half of the songs are ... Read More:

Moanin': Remastered

Search: Moanin (2)
by: Art Blakey

Release Date May 03, 1999
This is the sort of Jazz you'll hear in (coffee) bars. More emphasis on the (drum) beat than, for instance, in Miles Davis 'Kind of Blue'. Excellent playing, original compositions. Title track is one of the all time classic, instantly recognisable jazz tracks.
No freak rythms but big bouncy jazz. Classic album on par with the aforementioned. Better still, less 'cool' and less 'boring'(can one really say this?) than many of Miles late 50's and early 60's stuff. Recommended as an introduction or addition to the uniniated of jazz (like me). Can't be disappointing.
