More beauty a gogo ....

My favourite Randy Weston album - grab a drink and let yourself get carried away .....

 

Now playing:

... in its Phoenix CD reincarnation. One of the best albums of a jazz soloist with strings I have heard. Byrd plays magnificently, Fischer's arrangements are superb. It's a shame Warner Brothers kept this on the shelf after it was recorded.

I might need to go back and revisit this one, but I recall a rather extreme intonation issue on Byrd's part? Not just occasionally, but nonstop? I could never understand how that happened, either. Byrd in those days was generally a dead-on (or really close to it) guy with his pitch.

I must admit it took me longer to enjony the Miles-Gil Evans collaborations. In my beginnings I was only on be- and hardbop, modal, free, Electric, so in my Miles collections the Gil Evans collaborations was missing. 

After decades I was Ready for it. Now there are days I´m in that special mood when I like to sit down, close my eyes and listen to this. Wonderful !
