Eddie Bert “Kaleidoscope” Fresh Sound cd Reissues mostly Discovery sides, recorded before Discovery was sold to Savoy and before Bert recorded for Savoy. Pretty neat stuff, most of which have Duke Jordan on piano and many of which have Sal Salvador on guitar, and one of which is the very first recording of drummer Joe Morello.

Ha! Went to a vinyl clearout sale at a local record shop today and found the Phontastic LP (that has this session including that Night In Tunisia version) for the princely sum of 1 EUR°! So thanks again for hipping everyone to that recording, Marcel!

David Attenborough is 100 today!

I'm a fan of that one too.

7. I like a lot, the latin intro reminds me of "Manteca". Great saxophonist, it drives me crazy because it's sounds so familiar but I have no idea, very intriguing.

Another cool morning. Going to hit 50 today. Good day to work outside. Starting off with Yes, Tales from Topographic Oceans, Super Deluxe Edition disc 7. This disc features “Single Edits” made by Steven Wilson that I find quite interesting.
