I'll substitute Jimmy Heath for Bobby Jaspar on the Johnson track.

Was being discussed here a few days ago. Saw a headline: NO JAB NO JOB. Unlikely to become a policy as open to legal challenge (UK position. Don't know about US).

That's my source, too. Used to have it looking like this:

Continuing the Picasso theme, sheer big band artistry. Beautiful arranging, notable solos by Jack Sheldon and, of course, the incomparable Mel Lewis.

To celebrate that we'll have: Kenny Clarke Terry Shannon

Sonny Clark Terry Thomas Bob Dylan Thomas Tank Engine Just William Rufus Thomas

Unfortunately, here I don't have access to this tempting fare, but I did go to Liverpool a month ago to see this year's John Moores Exhibition which has been the starting point for so many British painters. My first visit was in 1972 when Euan Uglow won the prize.

Now playing:

Track 12: John Lewis' "Afternoon in Paris" from his album The Wonderful World of Jazz. Beautiful arrangement. Solos by Lewis, Jim Hall, Benny Golson and Eric Dolphy (we hear so little about him these days). Very much a five star album for me.

Track 11: Pettiford's "Oscalypso" from the Curtis Fuller album The Opener (1957) with Hank Mobley, Bobby Timmons, Paul Chambers and Art Taylor. Not an album I knew, but late 50s Mobley was unmistakable and I knew "Oscalypso" from this:

Thanks.

Takes me back! Used to own it when it was a new album.

My Old Dutch Milt Holland Anita O'Day

Track 7: Monk's "Let's Call This". And as others have commented, can't access anything after Track 8. Such a pity with such an unusually promising choice of material so far.

Track 1: "Jazz Me Blues" from Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section. Track 2: Sounds like J J playing "It Never Entered My Mind". Could the tenor be Bobby Jaspar? Track 4: "Angel Eyes" Track 6: Gil Evans classic: "Time of the Barracudas" from The Individualism of G E with Elvin and Wayne foremost.
