Dan Gould Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 I recently purchased a Japanese CD reissue of this wonderful recording and loving the music so much I want to share my VG+/VG+ LP copy so someone else who wouldn't give it a second look will give it a try, as I once did. For those who don't know, Thompson was a lifelong blues/R&B pianist, who, thru big brother David "Bubba" Brooks gave Tina Brooks his first gig (I think it was his first). He also worked A&R for King, had a hand in Freddie King's earliest work, but in 1972 Black & Blue recorded "Swings in Paris" a most unlikely set of jazz standards. And Sonny showed a previously unknown side of his musical personality. I used it in a BFT and Jim S. called it "Curiously Hinesly yet strangely Brubeckian". Sounds like a rave to me. So if you are curious, and live in the continental US, first to PM me will get this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
