It’s simple to draw connections to Roy Ayers when he is connected to a pillar like Gerald Wilson, who gave him his beginnings as a vibraphonist in his young 20s in Los Angeles. Gerald Wilson is truly connected to everyone who is someone in the jazz world, and this record with Carmell Jones as a frontman is one of the many records which features Wilson’s arrangements. Give this album a listen by clicking the link in our bio. I spent today hearing it for the first time, and it was a pleasant listen.

Hello Y’all! For this LAST First Thursday, February 6 at D.C.’s Tavern I have filled the boxes with my favorite 7-inches. I don’t think there will be many surprises. Les McCann & Eddie Harris - “Compared To What” b/w “Generation Gap” (Atlantic cat. SD 7-1537) I have no idea when I first heard “Compared To What,” but it left an indelible mark on my soul…that I know. I immediately became obsessed. I bought every version of the LP I came across until I found what I thought was a perfect copy. I bought copies of the 7-inch that there was an uncensored version out there. A soon as I discovered that this version of the 7-inch existed the obsession went into overload. I found this about ten years ago and have played this record more than any other at my First Thursdays. Les McCann and Eddie Harris were at the Montreux Jazz Festival but had never played together. “So hey, what do you say fellas? Wanna play some music we have never rehearsed in front of a packed audience at one of the best known Jazz gatherings in the world? Sure, why the fuck not? It’s all improvisation anyway?” Despite the fact that they never played together they produced one of the most enduring sessions ever. Gene McDaniels’ socially aware compositions really began with “Compared To What.” Just a couple of years after this he recorded what is one of the greatest pieces of social commentary, Headless Heroes of the Apocalypse. One night I played side one in its entirety…do you miss yet Hoboken? This is it folks, this is the last First Thursday. Over the years I have bellied up to the tables with some of the greatest and others that just made me laugh. At midnight I always have my first Guinness, otherwise I won’t make it to closing. Hello, I must be going, I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going. I’m glad I came. But just the same. I must be going, la-la! See you there! #primitivesoundsystem #vinylrules #vinyljunkie #vinyl45s #RareRecords #recordcollection #recordcollector @dcstavern #dcstavern #Hoboken #HoboenNJ @dalespix @demondrums @tfool #FirstThursday #FirstThursdays #SeriesFinale #ComparedToWhat #LesMcann #EddieHarris #DonaldDean #BennyBailey https://www.instagram.com/p/B8Nkg7JJqpZ/?igshid=1dmrth9cljnqi
