Seagulls of Kristiansund is one of my favorites of my father's compositions. He recorded it many times, in different configurations (some w/ his lyrics) and it's always always outstanding. Thanks Abbas for sharing this.
One of my favorites too. Just played the piece this morning on the radio here in the South of France -- a duet with Steve Lacy recorded live at Le Dreher, Paris.
Brilliant. Listening to this makes me transcend to the higher dimensions, beyond body and the physical world. Astral travel, gets me into the mode of leaving my body and merging with the eternity. A cleansing process, dropping all you negativity, forgiving, loving. You can actually practice the death experience by listening to this piece. Imagine, you have just dropped your physical body and your soul is ascending to the cosmos. Mala Waldron, you are blessed to be such a great man"s daughter. I worship your dad.
Ed Blackwell is the perfect drummer for a band in the process of making a jazz recording.. A listening musician who plays the drums with that rare, lovely combination of restraint and finesse. There has probably never been a more wonderful jazz musician to play the bass than Reggie Workman, and nobody ever touched the piano in the same way that Mal Waldron did over the course of his lifetime. I will take Mal or Paul Bley over Oscar Peterson any day of the week. If you want to hear a sublimely beautiful performance by a jazz musician on drums that rivals what you hear in The Seagulls of Kristiansund by Blackwell, I suggest that you go and pick up a copy of Everybody Digs Bill Evans on Riverside Records, and listen to the ballad ""Young and Foolish." Accompanying Mr. Evans on piano was the great Philly Joe Jones on drums, one of the best friends a song ever had. The lovely space in between the notes....
And what about the Mal Waldron & Jeanne Lee version Travellin' In Soul-Time - Live From Tokyo ? th-cam.com/video/xERkQzxEZPc/w-d-xo.html When the vocal chord vibrates in tune with a saxophone; magical isn't it?
