1. ECM on the licorice stick? Anat Cohen? 2. Stride aware composition and playing from more modern players. Jaki Byard? 3. Despite thinking it was an alto for the first few minutes, I'm going with Stan Getz. Piano sounded a bit like Ran Blake at the beginning, but by the end I couldn't rule out Kenny Barron. 4. Sounds experimental at the beginning and South American in the second half. Luciana Sousa? 5. Jarrett without the vocal sounds meets a milder variant of Dewey. Definitely not those two, so maybe Frank Kimbrough? 6. Modern piece with a humorous ending. Too much piano to be Gil Evans. More tightly arranged than I would expect of LCJO. Barry Guy? 7. Bass Clarinet. Guessing James Carter, without much certainty. 8. I like guitar players with a rock edge in jazz bands so this is right up my alley. I thought of Phalanx with Blood Ulmer and George Adams, but the sax does not ever play the agitated flurry of notes that Adams probably would. Is this the Hudson Project with John Abercrombie? 9. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a lesser known Monk composition. I suspect, but am not sure that there is a latin percussionist and a drummer too. The restless groove adds to the interest of what's going on up top. very close to no clue - my thoughts were Kenny Barron or one of the Gonzalez brothers, Andy or Jerry. 10. Maybe Mulgrew Miller with Christian McBride, or vice versa?

Nice clue, sent me right to the Percy France site for research. Sir Charles Thompson on 2? Or Cliff Smalls?

So 8 is likely to be the Clayton Brothers. Bass is recorded up front, so that would make sense. Perhaps Save Yourself for Me from Siblingity based on length?

Almost has to be the Heath Brothers

Solal?

I think we can safely rule out Albert and Donald, and Wayne and Alan. I believe Dennis Sandole's brother only composed, did not play. Ooh, Addison and Art?

Julian and Nathaniel?

Lester and Lee?

Big Joe Turner (1911–1985), blues singer Joe Turner (jazz pianist) (1907–1990), jazz/stride pianist Are all the Pablos Big Joe?

Coming to Big Ears on Thursday Mar 24, but I won't pass up Patti Smith for them, so we'll see how the scheduling shakes out. Or Trefoil with Kris Davis.

Enjoyable set! 1, Mose Allison? Love it! 2. OK, I'll use my Gene Harris card here. 3. Jumpy tenor sax number. Tune is familiar but eluding me at the moment. Wait, maybe Sweet Georgia Brown? Having been warned that I'm going to get a lot wrong, I'll try Percy France. 4. Mid-Tempo tenor sax number. Tune is familiar but eluding me at the moment - I think "of my own" is part of the lyric. Googling the lyric fragment, Blue Moon is the tune I was thinking of. Smmother than many of the other tenors here. Zoot Sims? 5. Electric bass on this one. Black & Blue is a label that seems to use electric bass with musicians who first emerged mid 20th century. Trombone seems to be the leader. Maybe not Black & Blue. Urbie Green? 6. Jazz Messengers feel, but seems to be alto, trumpet and rhythm. Bass very prominent in the mix, I don't think it's 60's or earlier. I'll try Sonny Criss without much confidence. 7. Stanley Turrentine? 8. A little gruffer tone. Eddie Lockjaw Davis? 9. I hate being wrong when I guess Rollins, but I'm going to risk it. Live recording with a Blue Note boogaloo feel, but serious command of the tenor and a lot of variety of technique. 10. Well You Needn't in a modern version. Bass way up front again. Freddie Hubbard? 11. The pianists high runs are very chopsy, maybe Barry Harris? 12. This little light of mine? Hank Jones? 13. Gene Ammons, or maybe Ben Webster?

I'll take April

I'm not very familiar with his work, but it's been almost a week since his passing, thought it should be noted here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robbie_Shakespeare

So is 12 the Gato ESP?

1. Nassau gets funky. Unknown Bahamanian locals. 2. Probably Alice Coltrane. Probably with Joe Henderson and Michael White. 3. Black Coffee. Initial thought is Carmen McRae, but only in the full voice moments. Most of the song is in a quieter and more reflective mode that doesn't fit as wll. Someone newer like Nnenna Freelon? Interesting how the strings are used just for one short segment. 4. Joe Lovano? 5. Organ and tenor. Stanley Turrentine? 6. Trumpet, soprano and electric piano front line. Wallace Roney? 7. Never Will I Marry. Dee Dee Bridgewater? 8. This has me thinking of the Art Ensemble albums with singers, Les Stances de Sophie and With Fontella Bass. 9. Stephon Harris? 10. I'm in unfamiliar territory here, stylistically, but it's good. New York Voices? 11. The bass is very reminiscent of Woody Shaw's Blackstone Legacy band. 12. Pharoah Sanders, sounds more like Alice Coltrane than Joe Bonner. 13. The ending is weird enough to make me think it could be a British "jazz-rock" unit like Colloseum or Soft Machine

The theme seems similar to Dan Gould's, highlighting locals, from the viewpoint of a European resident. James Carter the notable exception, but the composition provides the hometown link there. OK Harry James too, and I'm quite embarrassed to have mistaken Harry James for Ellington. I just hate not trying to guess.

The taste of tradition, with a healthy serving of the licorice stick 1. Earl Hines comes to mind for "trumpet style" piano 2. I'm thinking Buddy DeFranco, but can't rule Goodman out. 3. Clarinet goes way uptempo, with a fiddle too! Maybe Joe Venuti, maybe Kenny Davern? 4. Torn between Artie Shaw and Benny Goodman here. I have a vague memory that Shaw didn't make a lot of room for other soloists so I'll go with Goodman. 5. We have an organ tuned into earlier styles, but the track length suggests fifties or later, and it's live. Milt Buckner? 6. Reinhardt and Grappelli? 7. Definitely In The Mood. Because I like it, I'm guessing it's Cozy Cole's version and not Glenn Miller's. 8. I'm going with Count Basie, even though I barely hear any piano, because that insistent rhythm guitar is everywhere, and could easily be Freddie Green. 9. Tenor and fluegel quintet, or muted trumpet. Tenor voted for Prez. I fight hard against it, but if it's fluegel and sounds great I always think of Art Farmer. A more modern recording chosen well to blend with it's earlier neighbors. 10. I'm guessing Duke Ellington, but not with much conviction.

#9 is track 3 here, Theo Bleckmann is the male vocalist. I'm a fan.

Father's Find A Grave entry and mothers obit mention Florentine but not Madeline.

Would 12 be Dave Tough? on #4 Did you slip some Roscoe by us?

I bit on he downlooads, but it's over a month until delivery. On second look I see that's true of CD orders too.

I think It's time we found out which tracks JSngry nailed so we know what tracks are unidentified.

David Torn, Marc Ribot and Mary Halvorson could be guesses for 15. I do like guitarists that bring a rock edge to a jazz session.

1. Could be Ben Webster. Seems brawny, but not quite that brawny. The piano combines flashy and boogie. 2. Prominent electric bass, on second listen I think it's upright with a very electric sounding pickup, mixed way out front. My initial thought was an old timer like Gatortail, but the Sax, Bass, Drums lineup suggests otherwise. How about Joshua Redman? 3. Stitt with vibes? 4. I haven't come up with better than Art Farmer, but I don't know too much Clifford Jordan on soparano. 5. Sounds like a flute and fluegelhorn front line, possibly the pianist's date. 6. David Fathead Newman? Pianist seems to switch to organ. 7. Very fleet fingered guitarist. Maybe Philip Catherine with NHOP? 8. Stolen Moments! Not sure who did an organ-guitar Stolen Moments. Vic Juris? 9. Sounds like Sheila Jordan, but I don't know of many duets - Jeanne Lee and Mark Murphy off the top 10. Acoustic or almost acoustic guitar 11. Guitar and electric piano 12. Brassy big band standard. Quincy Jones? 13. Willow Weep for Me, nice Bari intro 14. Large group with organ 15. Edgy guitar and organ Fiuczinski? 16. Definitely sounds like Terje Rypdal on guitar. Possibly David Darling 17. Classical sounding alto 18. Another familiar tune. Getting To Know You?

I liked the Szabados, but never for a moment thought it was Cecil Taylor. Matter of fact I liked them all.
