Has anyone else gone onto one of the streaming services and selected one standard and listened to all the different recordings of that tune? Today I did this today for two, "Moon River" and "Summertime." I wanted to see how many sounded different than others. Very few stray from the original version.

I'm also sparse on Lacy. Irene Aebi's vocals are an absolute deal breaker for me, and I don't need multiple CD's of him doing Monk, so that leaves me quartets with Waldron and groups with Steve Potts but without Aebi as my sweet spots.

Absolute bargain. Recommended !

Op.18/3 and Op.18/4

Anyone seen Eddington? Might see tomorrow but it seems to have mixed reviews. Someone raving about it on the radio this morning but only 2 stars in the Guardian.

Branford Marsalis Quartet, Belonging

Thanks. Those are the 2 discographies I was working with. I'm pretty sure Feather wasn't present and I suspect that the cuts broadcast are from 2 or three different dates.

Excellent!

Yeah, if he's doing all that work, he should get paid

My thoughts exactly.

You guys are way ahead of me. I maybe have a dozen Lacy cd's I've picked up all over the place, but I am waaay back here: Have hardly got to it all.

👍 👍 Now:

Disc 1

K.593 and K.614

Really like the Wayne Vee Jays, this is the only one I don't have. Yep. Think everything Mingus is a good one. Such an enjoyable record. Great stuff.

Such a good one!

👍

Being up at the beach now, I see tons of scooter riders. I cringe when I see so many of them weaving around cars in traffic. I guess they figure that because they're on a little scooter, their bodies are somehow impervious to car metal. I still haven't gotten the itch to ride again. These days, I get my 2-wheeled excitement from my Magnum Cruiser ebike. I've had a couple of close calls on that too. People don't like to give bicycle riders the 3 foot buffer that they're supposed to. I had one big truck's mirror come very close to my head once. Scared the heck out of me.

These are from years back. Mirrors and battery cover are spiffier now. Tool bag is off the handlebar support and down behind the front wheel.

The mug shots, are....uncomfortable.... Playing now, my own double-feature: and Thank you, John!
