Im a big fan of Joe both as leader as a sideman. All of the Blue Notes are great but my favorites would be: - Inner Urge - In n Out on Milestone: - Multiple - Tetragon - Power to the People Later Joe: - Mirror Mirror - So Near So Far - Double Rainbow

Yes, Witch Doctor is very 'hot'. Great record though.

RIP Steve 🥀

This evening, Shelley Carrol Quartet at the Kitchen Cafe. A program of songs associated with Stan Getz. Quite excellent.

TIFF is having a Mikio Naruse retrospective.  I've managed to book tickets for 4 of the films and am trying to see 3 more (which are currently sold out, but tickets generally are released a few days ahead of each screening). So far I saw When a Woman Ascends the Stairs and then today, Floating Clouds, which was far too melodramatic for my taste.
