Teasing the Korean

How is this? I never heard of it. NP: Lee Morgan - Search for a New Land - Blue Note, stereo, played back in MONO to improve the mix!

David Axelrod - Earth Rot - expanded edition with instrumentals (Capitol) Jerry Goldsmith - Escape from the Planet of the Apes (La-La Land)

Not true with this primate. The stuff that made an impression on me occurred between ages 30-50.

Uniquely Mancini - RCA Victor, iiiMONO!!! Featuring that smash surf hit, "Bonzai Pipeline!"

Mancini '67 - RCA Victor, iiiMONO!!! Featuring Bob Bain on the fuzz guitar!

Anita Kerr Quartet - We Dig Mancini (RCA Victor, MONO!)

I love the Blue Note reissues/twofers he was involved with. RIP.

Have we ever determined the identity of Nora Kelly, who wrote liner notes for two of Herbie Hancock's Blue Note albums focused on the sea?

Maiden Voyage was my second Herbie Hancock album, Empyrean Isles being the first. I got both circa my junior/senior years of high school. This would have been very early 1980s. I also had The Real Book by this time, and while I was no expert then - nor now, for that matter - my sense was that "Dolphin Dance" was one of Herbie's most well-known tunes, next to "Chameleon" and, a year or two later, "Rockit."

That's what's selling. Even downloads don't sell much anymore. Listeners in the aggregate either want vinyl, or they want to stream.

Some, not much, overlap. I am counting three common tracks. https://www.discogs.com/release/7578982-Herbie-Hancock-Herbie-Hancock Interesting that neither included "Dolphin Dance," unless that tune's stock rose in value after the mid-1970s.

Nyiregyhazi - All Liszt Program (Columbia Masterworks, 1978).

So there's no solo content here, only trio?

Herbie Hancock - 70s BN 2-LP comp from the series with pixilated colorful graphics. Because sometimes a nice 2-LP set is what you need. Playing it in mono to bring up the piano and bass, as I frequently do with BN records from this period.

"New York pianist, Roger Peltzman’s one-person show, Dedication, recounts his family’s tragic history fleeing the Nazis in war-torn Europe using drama, humor, powerful images and musical performances of everything from blues to Chopin. "Drawn into the story of people he never knew, Peltzman develops a “relationship” with his uncle, Norbert Stern, a brilliant pianist who was murdered in Auschwitz at age 21. Learning that Holocaust trauma can be inherited, Peltzman recounts his coming to terms with second generation survivor trauma and the role of music in helping to manage wounds that will never fully heal. "A singular tale from the Holocaust that is at once extraordinary and relatable." https://www.rogerpeltzman.com
