Some others

It’s a warm morning. Our new housemate American Bully Memphis has settled into the daily routines well after two weeks now. He’s napping on the bed with a full belly, giving me space on my listening chair. Starting off with a repeat listen to Monday Michiru “4 Seasons” Polydor Japan 2 cd, disc 1 This recording has always sounded so good and it sounds magnificent this morning!

In preparation for her concert in Madrid, October 6th, I have been listening to Bria Skonberg's last four discs over the last few days:

SEPTEMBER 25 Barbara Dennerlein - 1964

Where da guitar, and what up wit dat bass intro?

The great British acoustic bass player has passed at 86. He played with many of my fave folk/jazz artists like Pentangle (that was his great solo arco introduction to "Reflection"), and Nick Drake (that was him playing bass on "River Man" (even though he had trouble reading 5/4 with the orchestra, he said, "Bollocks, I'll make up my own part!") . He also played with artists as diverse as Tubby Hayes, Kate Bush, John Martyn and Richard Thompson and many others.

There was some of these a few years before: Etc.

Fri. night - David Sanchez: Carib

That’s an excellent question!!

I'm reluctant to sell stuff -- even duplicates -- for that very reason. Coincidentally, Craft has reissued Amazonas in their "Jazz Dispensary" series. So you could easily obtain that one again. 😉

I have an extra copy if anyone in the US is interested. No OBI. $30 shipped OBO it is based on discogs this copy. https://www.discogs.com/release/14878397-Masabumi-Kikuchi-All-Night-All-Right-Off-White-Boogie-Band

The photos on some of those Historical Series albums are sometimes...unique!! He's a happy fella, ain't he now!!!

Thanks to everybody who replied and sorry for the late reply. I timed the track Kenny W played. It does run 4:48. I had looked at Losin's listing of Bird's recordings of "I Can't Get Started" before I posted, but when I saw that the only one he listed at Birdland runs only 1:09 I assumed he had missed the one that Kenny played. Seeing Phil Schaap's view is very helpful in understanding that there's a lot of uncertainty about this track.

Thanks Niko!
