I saw the Tribe tribute tour Carl Craig put together 10+ years ago. First time I heard of Marcus Belgrave, I bought this record at that show
  10:22am
Polyus:

@Kim - I went to Central for a few years but eventually dropped out. But I happened to be there at a time when there was a great little dive that hosted a lot of bands from the Detroit / AA area as well as some pretty great national acts. Actually the time I saw Faruq was at a 20 year reunion for the closing of that place.

Managed to find a copy of Mark Stryker’s book on Detroit jazz history but haven’t jumped in yet. I grew up a few hours north but we used to get the Free Press, and I would read about the Detroit Jazz Festival and wish I could go.

Stryker's book is great. I read it in piece - because I want to good on a dig every few pages for more sounds. It's heavily annotated.

I don't DJPeter - but I played the Outernational version - I do not need to eq. It originally was release on Nimbus - so I would expect they used the master tapes

Avatar 🥁 11:17am
Listener Gregory:

@DL, he did. Erskine's history (according to Wikipedia) is really very weird. Started out with Stan Kenton (!), moved to Ferguson, then played with Weather Report. No doubt there were other gigs and short-term bands, but that is still a bizarre jump in my view.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:21am
DJpeterDE:

I believe Erskine is the drummer on Ferguson's "Birdland," always wondered what Zawinul thought of that interpretation.
Footnote: highly recommend "PEN15" on Hulu, co-creator and co-star Maya Erskine. Richard Karn plays the fictionalized Peter Erskine (a drummer on the motel lounge circuit). Erskine's wife plays "herself" (Maya's mom).

Another weird Ferguson sideman fact: Hugh Ragin had a stint with Ferguson c. 1982. I talked to one of the other trumpeters and asked "any of you soloing tonight" and he scoffed at Maynard letting any other trumpeter solo. "Hugh Ragin did when I saw you guys last year," I said. The reply: "Ragin's black."

@Listener Gregory I completely understand from the point of view of a jazz purist the 70s would be a stale time for improvisation, but someone who loves hybrid jazz and pop jazz compositions would call the 70s The Golden Years.

Doug Schulkind:

Fun fact: Hugh Ragin is one of the sweetest people in music. He took over the jazz ensemble at Oberlin the year I was in it (fall 1980). Years later, I went to see him perform at a club in D.C. and when I came up to say hello after the set, despite there being absolutely no reason for him to remember me, he bellowed out my name and gave me a big hug. I'm still beaming from that night. Also, the tone of his horn is one of the most beautiful things in creation.
Avatar 🥁 11:49am
Listener Gregory:

There were certainly many good groups and some good music being played in the 70s. But on jazz radio (which still existed), major labels, and the bulk of jazz that one would readily encounter, things were often dire. People would call up the station to complain if it played Ornette Coleman. If you went to your local record store, you would see a lot more Maynard Ferguson than Lester Bowie or Jeanne Lee. Anyway, the Heath Brothers group was an excellent example of a "mainstream" jazz group that wasn't playing warmed-over be-bop or trying unsuccessfully to rock out, so I give them credit. They get little attention now, because they weren't perhaps "innovative," but Jimmy's compositions and everyone's playing were superb. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION!
