re: Wynton Marsalis

I'm by no means a Marsalis basher, but I haven't completely warmed to anything he's done since 'Blues Alley,' at least, nothing he's released as a leader. I prefer the early material, and the last thing of his that I truly loved was 'Marsalis Standard Time, Vol. 1.' Like many, I'm guessing, the only Wynton disc I actually go back to on a regular basis is the superb 'Black Codes (from the Underground).' I think the difference between the early band and the later bands is more than simply the loss of Branford, Kenny Kirkland and Jeff "Tain" Watts, although those losses do have a major impact. It's funny, but to my ear it just doesn't seem like Marsalis has enjoyed himself much since those three left -- but I may be reading too much into it. The early sessions were beholden to Miles, but they burned, whereas the later bands, more influenced by New Orleans traditional jazz and Ellington, just don't swing convincingly for me. More often than not, the septet sounds fussy and self-important, and as a result, its swing is fatally constipated. (Others may very well disagree with me, but I heard the band more than a few times and my opinion never varied.) Since the Vanguard box set is all from that era, you won't find me recommending it. And yes, I've listened to the whole thing. Oddly enough, the greatest Marsalis performance I ever heard was at a Borders in-store celebrating the launch of his (contract-fulfilling) dozen releases in 1999. The store was crowded, but the band -- Eric Reed on digital piano, Christian McBride on bass and Lewis Nash on drums -- just tore shit up. Away from the spotlight and the grandiose role he's expected to play in his position as spokesman for the music, Wynton can still play a whole lot of trumpet.

file-sharing offer
by Vincent Kargatis 02 Apr '03

02 Apr '03

In the interest of incentivizing purchases via music sampling, I'm offering to burn (data or audio, your choice) CDRs by request of mp3s I have in my collection. The idea is that you browse the list and send me specific requests. A data CDR can hold 120-150 mp3s, depending on file size, of course. Note that an audio cd will consist of uncompressed mp3s of various quality (and contain <74 min), so this is not as great a sampling opportunity, to my mind. But up to you. To keep my workload sane, the requests must be fairly specific, at least down to "a couple from album X" - not "how about 50 free improv tracks". Some rules: - no more than 20% of an album (no album purchase substitution allowed) - no more than a handful of tracks per artist (no best-of purchase replacement either) - lots of "pop hits" requests also disallowed - (live boots or OOP releases excepted from above) - only one CDR per person - any artist or label reading this can opt out by telling me. I know from public statements this includes Ellery Eskelin, so no Ellery tracks. - US domestic or European address preferred http://kargatron.net/mp3/mp3_20030327.zip is a zip file containing a simple text file listing 17,000+ mp3s. It's organized by my particular genre organization - no snide comments on that allowed. :) Almost all the mp3s are ripped by myself from my owned cds, fwiw. They are encoded at various compressions, as my methods evolved over time. Trades are welcome, but I'm mostly doing this out of goodwill. If the requests pile on, I reserve the right to opt out. :) Email: cdrequest(a)kargatron.net (or just reply) -- Vincent Kargatis np: Amon Tobin - "Searchers" (Out From Out Where)
