I was pleasantly surprised at how "non-commercial" this "commercial" music was.

Ole Matthiessen - Portraits, Poems & Places (Stunt)

👍 - as CD with five additional tracks on my shelf!

Verve MV 2632 St (Japan 1979) - Buddy DeFranco " Closed Sessions" - rec. 1957 Side A: with Don Fagerquist (tp) / Georgie Auls (Ts) / Carl Perkins (p) / Barney Kessell (g) / Leroy Vinegar (b) /Larry Bunker (vibes) / Bob Neal (dr) Side B: with Ray Linn (tp) / Paul Smith (p & harp) / Howard Roberts (g) / Joe Mondragon (b) / Milt Holland (dr)

Ts-find, also other works on the disc besides 'Bach'

I thought it was my connection. Glass fiber below the road, but the old thin copper telephone cables from there, for forty apartments. But other sites load as always.

Ts-find, Narciso Yepes

A swinging start to a cool Sunday morning. Kevin Hays “Go Round” Blue Note cd

(👍) - Too bad I don't have this CD, but I saw the trio live as the rhythm section of 'The Cookers' at the 'Theaterstübchen' in Kassel. Unfortunately, they only played two pieces as a trio - but they were wonderful!

When I woke up this morning, even before getting out of bed, I thought, Today is the last Saturday of September. And then I immediately thought, Darn! I missed the Grand Final. Oh well.

He led the jazz big band of the local radio station for several years, the news of his passing was reported on their news pages today. R.I.P. This was his farewell concert:

Sounds like a nasty way to go Sad. RIP

oh that´s bad news. I first heard him with Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Big Band. It was shortly before Thad and Mel separated....., and I remember that´s the first time I had heard that great pianist.

Max Roach with Strings ! I heard them live.

yes thats it, I ask the tenor player the way he wants to do it.

RIP

RIP. Excellent, versatile pianist.
