I show exactly 80 minutes ... but, anything over 79:30 usually will cause issues - even on the best of units. On a similar note: I have a 17-disc set where each disc is EXACTLY 79:10 in length.

😃 I’ll have to find a use for that word sometime!

I loved his guitar work with Chico Hamilton.

Again, you can listen to the whole 5 disc collection of Landscape by clicking in my post. Here’s an article too. Always nice to hear someone discovering something new - especially if they’re enjoying it.

Streaming some Uruguayan violinist and tango orchestra leader, Francisco Canaro (and others) while making cinnamon french toast this morning.

It definitely fits the thread title. I can’t say that anyone I know who had heard that album said that they had ever seen the film, but I’ve never really hung out with film buffs. I absolutely remember being 12 years old and hearing Thème de Yoyo a number of times being played at least twice a week on both Earl McGhee’s, “Transition” show on WNIB and on Saul Smaizys’ “Triad” on WXFM in the very early 70s and it became a “must-have” for me. Another trip to Rose or Hegewisch was in order. Yeah, there was a time in the 80s and 90s where it was harder to find, but it’s been readily available for the past 20+ years.

You Carry My Hope: Judeo-Spanish Songs in Los Angeles, Sept. 1942 - Feb. 1943

If by "own", you only mean physical product, then that would be in the tens of thousands, but ownership, to me, includes digital as well and so that would push that number into the hundreds of thousands. Just in iTunes alone, I'm listening to a library of nearly 200,000 hours from a quarter-century of curation. Streaming is so elaborately done around here that it would be TMI for anyone's interest. Spotify really is like a jukebox (as well as Bandcamp and many others ... hell, the Internet is a jukebox really). Streaming, in general, is still growing at an alarming rate and so that can be expected to continue until they run out of monetization ideas which doesn't look like it'll be anytime soon. Pretty glorious times, methinks.

Lil’ Darlin’

We Fell In Turn by Kalia Vandever contem-blaat-ive trombone (actually, it has less "blaat" than expected and more of an alphorn sound that adds smoothness if you can get over hearing "RICOLA®..." in your head).

Yeah, seven tenor and soprano duets with a bit of pocket cornet thrown in and all recorded at the Chicago Cultural Center in '03.

"no-no-no-no-no-no..."
