The more participation we have, the more fun and successful these threads will be. In the interest of keeping the thread alive and bumped, any general jazz discussion is welcomed here as well.

If you missed last week's thread, DON'T WORRY. It's not too late. Here are the links for the mystery tracklist. Download the tracks, record your thoughts/guesses/evaluations for each one, and then come back and post them in the thread. Remember, people will be posting guesses and thoughts in this thread so don't read the thread until you have listened to the music and collected your thoughts in order to avoid spoilers. Track info for this week's tracks will be posted on Saturday, so if you see the thread is close to dying before then, give it a bump.

1. This sax player’s sound makes me think of Joe Henderson even though I know that’s the theme and the piano sounds like someone influenced by McCoy Tyner. Once the piano solo gets started it all sounds too polite and safe. The drum solo was also kind of lame but I like the sax player. So this one was just too safe sounding to be a good tribute to Joe Henderson. 2.5 stars.

2. Clarinet and vibes makes a pretty interesting combination. I like the sound. I don’t recognize the song but I like it. It sounds like this is probably a cool rendition. Both solos are pretty good, I like the clarinet solo and the drummer playing some cool things too. I like when they go into the jungle type feel in the percussion solo. It reminds me of Art Blakey. 3.5 stars for this one.

3. This is probably the only Joe Henderson composition I will recognize. It’s Inner Urge. Could it be McCoy Tyner? I liked the early part better where he was soloing with the low notes. Still this is pretty good for a solo piano version and pretty short. It’s probably not Tyner, but I don’t know who it is. 3.5 stars.

4. I actually know this one too. It’s Blue Bossa. It sounds like a pretty basic arrangement but this vibes solo is impressive. Nice guitar solo too. It makes me think of Jim Hall or Joe Pass. So this one seemed very basic but the solos were pretty good. 3 stars.

5. This one was slow to get started but then once the whole big band comes in it’s kind of cool. I wasn’t really feeling the trombone solo at first but then it changed part way through and got a lot more exciting. It sounds like the trombonist from the Dave Holland quintet. I can’t remember his name right now. This took a while to get going but I liked the second half a lot. 3 stars.

6. I recognize this one but I forget the name. More vibes. It seems like we’ve had a lot of that this week. I liked that the vibe solo built up to being kind of free. Reminds me of Bobby Hutchinson Blue Note stuff. The piano and sax interplay was cool too. This was probably my favorite of the week so far. I liked the ending. 4 stars.

7. This one reminds me of Wes Montgomery or Grant Green and those 60’s organ trio albums. This one didn’t do very much for me. There was a part of the organ solo where he was doing cool chords but the rest seemed like “look how fast I can play.” 2.5 stars.

8. This one sounds kind of hard bop. Maybe it’s one that Henderson didn’t actually write. The bass solo wasn’t too bad as far as bass solos go. This sounds like Chris Potter on sax. Nice drumming too. The trumpet solo started out not that good but then it got better. The piano solo wasn’t that great. My favorite parts were the sax solo and the drumming overall. 3 stars.

9. It sounds like two different sax players. And no piano or guitar. This first sax solo has a pretty modern sound that reminds me of Chris Potter too. It’s pretty impressive playing but it started to get kind of long winded. I like that the second player has a way different sound. The contrast of sounds was cool but I would have liked this a lot better if it was half as long. 3 stars.

10. This sounds pretty Blue Note influenced. It sounds like they’re going for more of a bebop sound in their solos though. The trumpet and trombone solos were my favorite. Conrad Herwig is the only trombonist who I’ve heard play like this so I’ll guess it’s him. Nice overall but it felt a little bit safe. 3 stars.
