that would have been really interesting...

Nice. Don't think I knew about these.

Agreed! Capricorn Rising (Rivers with Pullen) teases out how that might have worked

Lieb & all the percussionists sound great -- but electric bassist Oscar Stagnaro steals the show.

Sound varies depending on the original alums. Some is very rare. The Verve with Brookmeyer is the jazziest, with a killer solo from Schifrin on the longest track. As with Sergio Mendes or Joao Donato all is a bit on the lighter side. They all were under more commercial presurd than jazz pianists, it seems to me. I would like to tell you more, but ghis is one of my temporarily misplaced items .....

Max on the intro, playing 3/4 over Duke's quarter note triplets...a delight, and delight first, then analysis. Always.

These DJ mixes released by Blue Note Japan in the late 90s were a nice introduction to all the samples that had been used on rap songs.

I like him and enjoy the stuff with Dizzy. I used to love those tv themes like Mannix but am not sure I want to go the whole 16 disks. What are his best jazz albums? Is this euro-compilation good?

Ben Allison Tell the Birds I Said Hello: The Music of Herbie Nichols Sonic Camera cd With Steve Cardenas and Ted Nash Beautiful!

Disc 1

I like that album (Blank Canvas).

I own the 5 CD version of this from 2016, which focuses on his 60's Verve releases (9 LP on 5 CD IIRC). Interesting listen, though not life-changing. I have no interest in 16 CD version which stretches into the 21st century, though neither version should break the bank in terms of $ per disc.

The beautiful Yuja Wang

Ok, will do. I'll prob work on it this weekend and hopefully put it in the mail by Monday/Tues.
