Chuck Nessa

Let's all go to the lobby.

He's scheduled to be here in Buffalo on March 2 with my old friend Thurman Barker on drums.

Nice Herbie Nichols blues solo in the last piece.

Correct.

Do you really find that satisfying?

Saw it once in a 2fer. Had the lp and ordered a cd today here - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BTYG9S3?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

More Ellington transcriptions -

This 2 disc set covers 1947-1957. A highlight is the Metronome All-Stars date with Roy Eldridge, Kai Winding, John LaPorta, Warne Marsh, Lester Young, Terry Gibbs, Teddy Wilson, Billy Bauer, Eddie Safranski and Max Roach.

For sentimental reasons, the one I was involved in. The rest is burned in my memories.

Nice.

Continuing to dig out memories -

Looking forward.

Haven't listened to this in ages.

The "All American" half of this with Budd Johnson and Eddie Costa after playing the Ellington record.
