CTI Summer Jazz At The Hollywood Bowl (Live One) – 1972

Science dropped by Martini & Jopparelli. Sep-21-2008

This is one of my latest buys, and I’m going to share it with you because it’s really really cool. An incredible concert from 1972 with all CTI musicians toghether into a single all-star ensamble.

Yes, we’re talkin bout Creed Taylor’s label, a piece of legend that left a heavy mark in Jazz and 90′s Hip Hop. Once again, timeless music here at M&J’s.

You may find this album elsewhere on the interweb, but this is MY personal vinyl rip at 192 kbps, hi-quality! You won’t be disappointed. If you still got any doubts, just read the musicians line up: legendary. Enjoy.

    Yes, digging is always fun. Sometimes you can even find good records which are not from 1988: incredible, isn’t it? ;-)

      john, years ago I came upon the Live 3 knowing nothing about CTI. Loved it! Found last month there were THREE CTI’s from this concert. Both Amazon and ebay have plenty for sale. Amazon supply a little thin. Live Two from Amazon perfect, Live One spinning now. Perfect – Diggin it so much I havent flipped it to side B yet. Okay just flipped. Getting a back up Live 2, my fave, while the gettin is good. Doubt I’d ever find them easy in collector stores and I am already in enough trouble with new(to me)music. Prices are decent except for some proud guy in Japan will all 3 on disc. Last I looked; dropped from 800$ to 649$. Yeah right.I think he’s just pounding his chest. “Lookie what I got n you don’t! Ebay has/had? 1,2,3 on disc for 199$. if you wanna go there.
      Bless my turntable for hangin with me everyday, lol. Really order from either site and save the hassles diggin in dusty crates on the floor. kay

    almost a year after your last posted comment and I am listening to Live Two. Amazing how someone loved this almost 40 year old LP. I came upon Live 3 in a thrift/used book shop 10-15 years ago and snagged it for 3.50 or half that? I was trolling for anything Esther Phillips. A gal who was never much appreciated during her 10 short years, may she R.I.P. Those who know of her vocals either love her or hate her. Unfortunately her producers tried her in broadway covers, rock and country etc. Thus very little good stuff in the blues/jazz genre was ever produced. Thanks, Creed Taylor for bringing her to Hollywood in 1972. Cherry Red blew me away and still does. I recently poked about and found there were three albums and will definetly go for the last one, Live One tonight. I wish someone who loves the jazz oldies would press this in audio disc’s (other than Japan if ya got nearly a grand. The “one” seller raises his price everytime I web into his offering, lol.
