Rosanne Cash - She remembers everything (Blue Note)

Kellan Toohey & Suyeon Kim: Scenes from Home - Music for clarinet and piano by Colorado composers (MSR Classics) Bucolic gems from the 21st century

.I share your enthusiasm about those Prestige sessions, almost hardboppy up to Chets standards. This is crisp, gripping music, Lightseys piano almost funky and Coleman rough, expressive and ready. You´re right with the flugel. As far as I remember Chets trumpet had been stolen shortly before the sessions."Everything happens to me" a fitting signature beside "Valentine". BTW "Everything happens..." is also covered on a KL trio album recorded decades later for the Dutch Timeless label. Chet sits in on one of the most beautiful versions of this ballad. Highly recommended, too!
