Is that the Affinity reissue  Cat# 173?

Have also seen another cover  as Bethlehem Cat# 09 title "West Coasting"

This quartet session was originally on Bethlehem. I have it as part of a Conte Candoli 2 CD set on Fresh Sound.

I believe that the "West Coasting" is a quintet date,  and is also on the 2 CD Fresh Sound set.

Ahh yes. Have done a little research. Here are the results.

- The Quartet  "Sincerely Cool" was Bethlehem BCP 1016 = 4tet with 9 tracks ---> Nov. 20, 1954

- 5 tracks appear on BCP-9 "West Coasting" +  Sims & Giuffre = Sextet from  Dec. 6, 1954 with additional 6 tracks

- The Affinity  Aff 173 " Cool And Dandy"  has 9 tracks with the quartet + 3 additional tracks  with the Holman/Candoli quintet ---> July 1955

More tracks from the latter appear IMO  on the LP BCP-30 Candoli Vol.2 (Japan edition = Powerhouse Trumpet)

Have to check that Fresh Sound CD-set what I am missing ---> result:

These are the missing tracks here:

CD 1: track # 01 & 02 / CD 2: Tracks  # 09 /010/ 011

Started the day off with the Ezzthetics release of part of the Heliocentric Worlds material from Sun Ra.

Sure improved sound. Though I think I do miss some of the mud of the ESP DISC 3 cd version in comparison. Gives a bit of body.

Then on to a Japanese 24 bit by RVG lp facsimile Blue Note cd version of Grant Green's "Goin' West." Forgot how much fun this one is. Billy Higgins should get a medal for the drum patterns he comes up with here! And Herbie is really working. . . .

Then it was on to Kurt Elling, "Close Your Eyes" Blue Note cd, from the box I got from Tire-Bitin' Man (I think he might have previously been a Street-Fighting Man). I love that tune, "Close Your Eyes," its melody and harmony are tailor-made for jazz. Another good release from Elling that I'm getting to know.

Then it was on to something different, the 50th Anniversary reissue of Grateful Dead "Working Man's Dead." It sounds really good. It sounds a bit different from the Mobile Fidelity SACD version which is excellent, they are both good editions of this classic album. The lenticular cover for this is truly something else in a great way.

And as a British comedy team used to say, now for something completely different.
