My preorder came in last week. Have yet to crack it open beyond a quick scan however.

There also is a version of "On The Alamo" from November 1965 on the "Suitably Zoot" LP on Pumpkin 108. Plus one on the "The Swinger" album on Pablo from December 1979. Looks like a personal favorite indeed.

March 18 Courtney Pine - 1964

This is now 'in-stock' at Amazon.

Considering his show in Charlotte as well but only for a chance to see him live. I have no idea what to expect.

He usually posts the band members on his website, but has not yet done so for his July concerts. The last time I saw him, a couple of years ago, he did play the vocoder/keytar (or whatever), which was definitely pretty annoying but did not last too long (though it seemed like forever).

I really enjoy her relative vibratoless interpretations.

He's coming to Portland, ME too and I'm thinking about skipping it. It's happening August 1st and I'm pretty sure that I'll be out of the area then.

I like all of her music -- but these two are my favorite Irene Kral albums: and

I'm a big fan of both her early stuff and her very different 70's recordings. I never put together that she and Roy were siblings!

Disc 5

👍

Would her brother Roy (+ Jackie) qualify as "Kral" too?

Good stuff!

Alas, I also suffer from this syndrome and my wife is adept at requesting I play a particular cd whose location is unknown. My solution: when I locate the cd, rip it onto my external drive that plugs directly into my Oppo 205 and while I don't particularly like the filing system the player utilizes, locating a cd now takes seconds and all is well.

Just realized both In Paris albums have "On The Alamo." There's not too much difference between 1956 and 1961 recordings, but this standard seems one that Sims was particularly fond of.
