0427 Jimmy Witherspoon ['Spoon Sings And Swings] FLAC 11(42.31)

Contributed by grumpy, who writes:-
Great atmospheric live gig. Dick Morrissey is on fire. Phil Seamen too.

David Illingworth ~ Jazz Journal Vol20 No2, February 1967
Undoubtedly the best Witherspoon album for many a year, though perhaps my pleasure was enhanced by the memory of several performances by Morrissey and Spoon. It is in fact a Quintet on this record; a complete whole, singer and backing. South and Bates create a solid background, and Seamen blasts the session along like an after-burner. The boy from Sutton County Grammar School gives Spoon the best tenor backing he has had since Ben Webster was behind him. On occasions he comes on like the old Fats Domino man Herb Hardesty—a direct rhythm-and-blues attack, but not vulgar. Those who have heard this combination over the past year or so will need no encouragement to buy this LP—the recording has been well done, despite the limitations the warm little room at Barnes may have suggested in this respect. Spoon is in fine form, and this is perhaps, his best recording ever—uncluttered by an all-star backing. The less interesting spots are the fast / Gotta Girl and Kansas City and Percy Mayfield's over-sentimental Someone To Love. But the word is less not least. Buy it.

0426 Peter King [Brother Bernard] FLAC 10(1.08.43)

Contributed by azule serape, who writes:-
I don't think Peter King is sufficiently appreciated in the UK although he has had a long and distinguished career in music for over 60 years. He didn't record as a leader until 1982.
These recordings from 1988 and 1992 show him at his peak and with a superb rhythm section. Alan Skidmore and Guy Barker guest on some tracks.
Miles Music firstly issued the lp in 1988 and then for some unexplained reason issued the cd in 1992 omitting two of the lp tracks but adding four new tracks from later sessions.
This posting contains all the issued tracks from both the lp and the cd which actually would have fitted on one cd.
