More CDs, free to a good home. (See below.)

  • Herbie Hancock Head Hunters. Seminal funk-jazz. ([livejournal.com profile] tombking)
  • Roscoe Holcomb The High Lonesome Sound. Raw, solo old-time country.
  • Bruce Hornsby Hot House. Piano pop. Missing front insert. (Bob E.)
  • Here Nor There Conversations. Jazzy folk trio I saw at one of three cafes at the corner of Bleecker and Macdougal. I don't think it's there anymore.
  • Charlie Haden/Jan Garbarek/Egberto Gismonti Folk Songs. Haden (bass) and Gismonti (guitar and piano) are wonderful musicians, but I don't know about the saxophones. (Bob E.)
  • Wayne Horvitz Monologue: Twenty Compositions for Dance. Mostly keyboard.
  • Sara Hickman Necessary Angels. Folk/country? For a review that positive, allmusic sure kept it short.
  • Harrison/Blanchard Black Pearl. Part of the Marsalis crowd, I think. Terence Blanchard went on to a regular gig scoring Spike Lee movies. ([livejournal.com profile] blackbriar)
  • Robin Holcomb Rockabye. Related to folk, but wildly eclectic. With Wayne Horvitz, Peter Holsapple, and several musicians whose names start with other letters.
  • Charle Haden and Quartet West In Angel City. Maybe Haden's most straightforward band, in a set dedicated to Los Angeles. ([livejournal.com profile] tombking)
  • Roy Hargrove Moment to Moment. Great trumpeter plays ballads with too many strings.
  • Jon Hassell and bluescreen Access Codes for a Culture of Decorative Eroticism. 4-song promo from Dressing for Pleasure. Strange trip-hop album from jazz/world trumpeter. ([livejournal.com profile] celie)
  • Fareed Haque Deja Vu. Classical guitarist plays jazz fusion covers of every song from the CSN&Y album.
  • Charlie Haden The Golden Number. It's 2; duets with Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, Archie Shepp, and Hampton Hawes. ([livejournal.com profile] celie)
  • Hüsker Dü Warehouse: Songs and Stories. That band Bob Mould was in before Sugar. ([livejournal.com profile] tombking)
  • The Jimi Hendrix Experience Electric Ladyland. (Bob E.)
  • Lauryn Hill "Everything Is Everything". The single. Also includes "Ex-Factor".
  • Charlie Haden and Kenny Barron Night and the City. Reflective, romantic duets.
  • Hayden Everything I Long For. Acoustic grunge? Kind of a downer.
  • His Name Is Alive Last Night. Too bluesy for 4AD. Covers of Jimi Hendrix ("Train") and Ida ("Teardrops"). ([livejournal.com profile] dougo)
  • Herbie Hancock The Best of Herbie Hancock: The Blue Note Years. "Maiden Voyage" and other hits from before he got all weird. ([livejournal.com profile] bushmiller)
  • Los Hombres Calientes Vol. 1. Irvin Mayfield, Jason Marsalis, and Bill Summers of the aforementioned Head Hunters. ([livejournal.com profile] celie)
  • John Lee Hooker The Best of John Lee Hooker 1965 to 1974. "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer," and other songs from long before his comeback. ([livejournal.com profile] perci)
  • Charlie Haden and Gonzalo Rubalcaba Nocturne. Melodic treatments of Latin American standards.
  • Fred Hersch Sarabande. With, yes, Charlie Haden again, and Joey Baron on drums.
  • Hothouse Flowers Songs from the Rain. "Thing of Beauty" and other rock songs from Ireland. With Peter O'Toole on bass!
  • The Hoops McCann Band Plays the Music of Steely Dan. That they do, in big band form.
  • Stefon Harris Black Action Figure. Hard bop vibraphone. Promo copy (no liner notes). ([livejournal.com profile] tombking)
  • Jon Hassell Fascinoma. Hassell comes back to jazz via "Caravan", "Nature Boy," Ry Cooder and Jacky Terrasson.
  • The Juliana Hatfield Three Become What You Are. She hates her sister.
  • Angie Heimann Homeslices. Halfway through a monthlong road trip around the USA, at an open mike in Cambridge, MA, one of my favorite performances was by this singer-songwriter, who turned out to be, like me, visiting from California. It's a small country.
  • Hunters and Collectors Ghost Nation. Australian pop.
  • Tom Harrell Time's Mirror. Journeyman trumpeter leads big band session.
  • The Roy Hargrove/Christian McBride/Stephen Scott Trio Parker's Mood. Unusual, drumless arrangements of (mostly) Charlie Parker songs. The whole band-name question is a lot easier for jazz musicians. (Bob E.)

Recap: I have a lot of CDs I don't want anymore. I want them to be heard by people who do want them. I would be happiest giving them to people I know. That includes LiveJournal friends, family members, people I've hung out with lately and long ago. Mostly it means not randoms who find this page on a Google search. On the other hand, if you did find this page on Google and you've been searching for, say, that Jon Hassell promo for years because it's the one thing you don't have for the trip-hop trumpet radio show you've been planning, sure, drop me a line.

I'm distributing stuff haphazardly, not strictly by who calls it first, so if there's something you want that's already been requested, you might as well ask. Finally, as I said, I'm giving this stuff away, but if you're asking for a lot of discs, I'd like you to help with shipping costs. And speaking of shipping, I'll need your address. You can email it to me.

Wow, you're giving away so much good stuff! Makes me wonder what you're keeping...

[identity profile] jfb.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
The better stuff. :-)

Actually I have specific answers in a lot of cases. Like, I like these Charlie Haden records, but I love some other ones. Or I like Jay Farrar's Sebastopol but I liked it so much I bought two copies so I could lend one out and still have one.

You want anything? I'm not afraid of international shipping costs, although that may be because I haven't looked up what they'd be.

Well, as it happens, there are one or two I wouldn't mind hearing, namely: Jon Hassell and bluescreen Access Codes for a Culture of Decorative Eroticism; Charlie Haden The Golden Number; & Los Hombres Calientes Vol. 1..

I'm also pretty clueless when it comes to the cost of international shipping between your place and mine. Weirdly enough, I'm more likely to know the cost of posting to Nepal and Japan. You should let me know and I could paypal you, or something.

It looks like I'll probably ship them slowly but cheaply, which means a flat rate up to five pounds--er, I mean, 2.27 kg. I'm not sure how many CDs that is, but I'm guessing about a dozen. So you might want to check the previous posts, or watch out for the next few, and help me fill the box.

Hmm,
Herbie Hancock (Both of them), Charlie Haden - In Angel City, Husker Du, Jimi Hendrix, John Lee Hooker, and Stefon Harris.

[identity profile] bushmiller.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like the second Herbie album and the John Lee Hooker CD.

[identity profile] jfb.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Curse me for putting these in no particular order. You want the "Best Of" one, right?

[identity profile] bushmiller.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yep.

[identity profile] dougo.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
I guess I'm not into H's. The only one I'm interested in is His Name Is Alive. (Already have the Husker Du and Hendrix. And I'm curious about Head Hunters but I think it's already spoken for, and I think I have mp3s of the Herbie Hancock albums I like-- Mwandishi, Crossings, Sextant.)

Wasn't Hoops McCann the name of John Cusack's character in One Crazy Summer? Is that why you filed it under H and not M?

Also, Juliana Hatfield doesn't have a sister. But you probably knew that.

[identity profile] jfb.livejournal.com 2005-02-21 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
I noticed that the H section is very jazz-heavy, which I suspect will bring out a different set of requesters. Hoops McCann was the John Cusack character, and named after a characted in Steely Dan's song "Glamour Profession". And yes. And yes.

I keep reading these posts and telling myself I do not need to assist you in emptying your house by filling mine.

But maybe I do, just a little, if the John Lee Hooker isn't spoken for already.

Another victim! Don't forget to send me your address (mailto:eostrom@drowning.org).

Feel free to Rx something for me. If I knew what I liked, it would be easy. Educate me ..

Juliana Hatfield Three

I'll take the CD with the person who hates her non-existant sister if no one else has claimed it...

Good set last night at the Red Rock, btw.
