Your 'old slippers'....

I like that this thread's been resurrected!

Sonce I started it my tastes have changed a little and as a result I can add some newer, though nonetheless comfortable, slippers to the pile.

One is Marcin Wasilewski's first, 'Trio'. In a similar vein Brad Mehldau's 'Songs' with his first trio.

Keep them coming please!

Ben Webster Meets Oscar Peterson. One of the first jazz CDs I bought, aged 19, as a blind buy because it had Bye Bye Blackbird on it and I already had (and liked) Peterson's second Cole Porter songbook. I remember being pleased that I recognised This Can't Be Love (probably from Round the Horne!).

The Touch of Your Lips is probably my favourite track and the version of Wee Small Hours is just perfect. I've bought many many more albums with these artists since but this is the one that always heals and comforts – it's so warm.
