I very much like thw World's Greates Jazz Band P Gershwin & Rodgers & Hart. A nice mix of musicians with some especially fine solos by Carl Fontana. Now listening to:

Spohr - Double Quartet No.3 & Octet Op.32

Mozart Piano Concerto No.5 and No.6 Annerose Schmidt- Dresden Phil.

I saw drummer Hindall Butts play many many times back in the 1950's when I was living in Detroit. He played around town with a variety of musicians. He was certainly one of my favorite Detroit drummers at that time. My recollection is that he was a tall lanky guy who played with power. A lot of accents and a hard swinger. Never knew what happened to him as I considered his playing equal in quality to the other Detroit drummers who moved on to play and record on the New York and Chicago scene.

Symphony No.1 and No.2
