Talking Music and Legends

Last Tuesday, March 14 2023, this man turned 90!

Quincy Jones, one of the most iconic and legendary artists of this century. Musician, arranger, composer, producer. Almost incredible to think about all the people he worked with in his musical career. Legends themselves!

As a young boy, 14 years old he met Ray Charles, who was then 16 years old. As trumpeter he played in a band that supported Elvis Presley and at 20 year old he played in the Orchestra of Lionel Hampton going on a European tour. During which he developed his skills as arranger as well.

It's almost impossible to name all the musicians he worked with. Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, DizzyGillespie, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Gene Krupa. All those Jazz icons...

Jones conducted and arranged Frank Sinatra's iconic live album with the Basie Band Sinatra at the Sands Who doesn't know the albums he produced with Michael Jackson. And the musical adaptation of the Wizard of Oz with Michael Jackson and Diana Ross.

I don't think anybody here never heard a piece of music he was involved in. The many tv themes, Sanford and Son, the Bill Cosby show theme, or Soul Bossa Nova, written in 1962 and used as the theme for the 1997 spy comedy Austin Powers! And so many more...

Jazz, pop, and even in 1989 with his album Back on the Block, he showed how music genres can be combined and easily be on the same album. Hiphop, Jazz, Pop, Soul, Brazilian music.. The album features legendary musicians and singers from across three generations, including Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Joe Zawinul, Ice-T, Big Daddy Kane, Sarah Vaughan, Dizzy Gillespie, George Benson, Luther Vandross, Dionne Warwick, Barry White, Chaka Khan, Take 6, Bobby McFerrin, Al Jarreau, Al B. Sure!, James Ingram, El DeBarge, Ray Charles and a 12-year-old Tevin Campbell.

Do yourself a favor and take some time to listen to his music this week. Or do a search on Youtube, many live concerts to choose from. This is one in honor of his 75th birthday. For me it is hard to choose a piece, so many that I adore and love. But I settle for the 'Secret Garden' featuring Al B. Sure!, James Ingram, El DeBarge, and Barry White. From "Back On The Block"

Oh and take a look at Quincy Jones' IG more than half a century of music history over there! And much more about Quincy Jones.

CURTIS FULLER 'FOUR ON THE OUTSIDE’ (1978)

Curtis Fuller (December 15, 1932 – May 8, 2021) was an American jazz trombonist best known for being a member of several legendary jazz outfits, his impressive catalog of solo albums and a contributor to many classic jazz recordings.

Fuller was born in Detroit and lost both his parents at a very young age. He spent several years in an orphanage run by Jesuits where he developed a passion for jazz after one of the nuns there took him to see his first live performance. Curtis attended public school in his hometown (together with Donald Byrd and Milt Jackson) where he took up the trombone at the age of sixteen.

Curtis Fuller was a well-respected member of iconic outfits such as Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, Art Farmer’s Tentet, The Benny Golson Quintet and Eastern Rebellion. The list of his collaborations is impressive to say the least, Mr. Fuller recorded and performed with greats such as Quincy Jones, John Coltrane, Count Basie, Dizzy Gillespie, Freddie Hubbard, Roland Kirk Rashaan, Miles Davis…and many others.

Fuller was granted an honorary doctorate of music from Berklee College of Music in 1999 and eight years later he was honored as a NEA Jazz Master. Curtis Fuller’s performances were included on classic recordings released by prominent labels from the likes of Blue Note, Savoy, Prestige, Strata-East, Muse, Verve and Impulse!

On the album we are presenting you today: Four On The Outside (Recorded in 1978 at the famous New York CI Recording Studio and released on Timeless Records the same year) the listener is treated to six majestic tracks of the highest caliber and features a remarkable outing of advanced musicianship by jazz-giants in their prime, delivering an inspirational gem of an album.

The all-star line-up includes Pepper Adams (Oliver Nelson, Lalo Schifrin, Herbie Hancock) on saxophone, Dennis Irwin (The Jazz Messengers, Chet Baker) on bass and James Williams (Calvin Keys, Thelonious Monk) on piano.

Four On The Outside shows off Fuller’s mastery of the Trombone and this delightful set features him in a front line with Pepper Adams delivering a unique trombone-baritone saxophone combination (few others have followed this intriguing coupling). Curtis Fuller plays from the heart and is on top of his game. Expect sharp and elegant original compositions, machine gun-like spurts, angular boppish lines and top rhythm section work that never gets in the way of the horns spreading their wings. All of the above makes this record a must have for any self-respecting jazz fan or collector!

Tidal Waves Music now proudly presents a much-needed and long overdue vinyl reissue of these classic jazz recordings (originally released in 1978 and out of print on vinyl since 1986). This reissue comes as a deluxe 180g vinyl edition (strictly limited to 500 copies worldwide) and features the original artwork/photography by Don Diesveld & Hans Harzheim who are responsible for designing iconic album covers for the likes of Sun Ra, Pharoah Sanders, Charles Mingus and Ben Webster. This will also be the the first time the album is being released in North America and in the UK.

Available in stores October 13, 2023. Pre-order now from www.lightintheattic.net

in the source link you’ll find 180 (100px) base icons of charlie gillespie in his role as luke in julie and the phantoms season 1 episode 7. julie and the phantoms is set in the present day and he was 21 years old in the project. do not use my resources for smut, or to rp as any real person including charlie himself. since i make my icons from scratch, please give this a like or reblog if you’re using these.

note: i don’t know if it’s noticeable but i feel like these are a little grainy which makes... no sense given the quality of the initial footage. hopefully, since these are just base icons, they’re still useful!
