Yes, HutchFan, I like it quite a bit. I have quite a few Stanley Cowell albums. Most of them are, to my taste, very good, though a few veer off in a direction that does not appeal to me. This has a few more horn players than most of his things, and yet there are a few tracks without horns. Currently listening to:

I had a very large collection of LPs. I bought my first CD player in 1984 and from that point on began collecting CDs. Over a number of years I began selling off most of my LP,s usually for high prices. At present my CD collection totals many many thousands. Initially I was skeptical of streaming and was concerned about audio quality. I eventually became aware that the audio quality of streaming greatly improved. Also I had reached the age when I needed to think of downsizing and figuring out how to dispose of my CD collection. So rather than acquire any more CD's, I began to get involved in Streaming. I signed on to Apple Music and have access to a huge inventory o jazz (and classical music which I also enjoy). So now I stick completely with streaming though do play some of my CD's now and then.
