Parlor Greens, In Green/We Dream (Colemine) Nicole Glover, Memories, Dreams, Reflections (Savant)

yeah, excellent show though after the first few seasons I stopped following it (just moved on to other things). Probably due for a rewatch or at least catch up. I remember seeing her in the audience (along with other siblings) for a Mary Margaret O'Hara concert & it seemed like they were a wildly supportive family. Thinking of them all during this time.

The live set is good stuff but the studio stuff is glorious.  YMMV 

Thanks to those who participated and jointly puzzled out almost all of the tracks.  Forgive me if I am a touch disappointed that no one wanted to engage on the two hints provided to make it a clean sweep.     Again organizing answers by tune:   Tickle Toe:   Track 1 is from this: https://www.discogs.com/release/6503959-Totti-Bergh-Plas-Johnson-On-The-Trail Track 7, universally enjoyed, from this: https://www.discogs.com/master/458096-The-Johnny-Griffin-And-Eddie-Lockjaw-Davis-Quintet-Tough-Tenors   Butter Fat: Track 2 (and universally despised) is from https://www.discogs.com/master/43544-David-Sanborn-Taking-Off Track 10, only modestly less rejected is from https://www.discogs.com/master/1438165-Houston-Person-We-Owe-It-All-To-Love I wonder if I had paired the Jive Samba by Houston with another performance would have had a different result ... well basically it was figuring out it was Sanborn is what got this ID'd so - it would have remained a mystery if I had gone with Jive Samba.   Things Ain't What They Used to Be: Track 3 is from: https://www.discogs.com/master/3038846-Doc-Cheatham-George-Kelly-Jack-Kleinsingers-Highlights-In-Jazz-Presents-Echoes-Of-Harlem The alto compared to Rabbit was Joey Cavaseno who has a few regular and graymarket releases available on Amazon and Discogs. Track 6 is from: https://www.discogs.com/master/1453263-Harry-Allen-2-With-The-Bill-Charlap-Trio-Harry-Allen-Plays-Ellington-Songs I guess Allen has developed enough that now Sangrey hears him as "walking in somebody else's shoes" rather than corpse-f0ing Stan Getz, IIRC correctly from a BFT many, many moons ago. Meanwhile I thought it was interesting with Charlap doing the down tempo blues thing, as I also seem to recall that Larry Kart once dissed his ability to play the blues?  That recollection is a little more iffy. Moving On. Who Can I Turn To Track 5 is from  https://www.discogs.com/release/13108173-The-Frank-Wess-Quintet-Surprise-Surprise- I did not expect to hear a tune I immediately associate with Dexter as a ballad done at this tempo so it had to go on a BFT eventually. I stated this one was on the same label as the Plas Johnson CD - Gemini Records has many other fine recordings (I've concentrated on the ones featuring American jazzmen). Track 8 is from https://www.discogs.com/master/353378-Willis-Jackson-Smoking-With-Willis Done up in the more traditional ballad tempo though Felser found it interminable.  But I wasn't going with Dex's version as a total gimme so this is what I landed on.    

Haha you'll always miss what you don't have  We did have a few snow days this years so my 2 boys and me had great fun with snowfights and making snowman's. But it was only a few days. Would love to ice skate on the lake  nearby again. Last time that was possible was 2021. I was on the ice at 8 in the morning. It was magic.  Those kind of cold days are really rare over here.
