Just saw that thing at Dusty Groove: https://www.dustygroove.com/item/13236/Waters:Waters-Blue-Note?filterfield=veryrecent&sort_order=date_added&format=vinyl&new_status=used

Have not thought about that one in a while!

Got it, heard it, agree - it’s a keeper!

Big CTI fan. No it's not Blue Note/Riverside/Prestige, but a 70s update to all those. Some great artists. as mentioned above, with multiple solid albums, many of them fantastic - Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Turrentine, Joe Farrell, George Benson and Milt Jackson. Jim Hall, Paul Demond, Kenny Burrell and Randy Weston all have one-offs. Hubert Laws and Ron Carter also have a bunch of albums, mostly straight ahead jazz (with a 70s vibe) but I am not as much a fan of these, YMMV.

😂

I have always liked that Jump Street album cover.

In/happy to subscribe

Un-du Amazon has it

Plus Gerald Clayton - me too!

Boy, that letter from his daughter is a gut-punch. So sad.

FYI he has a cool live track that is new to Spotify. Not sure if is unreleased or whether an album is forthcoming.

So so so good!! One of my high school soundtracks!

That is a good one!!

This coming out on October 4th. Available for pre-order on the Blue Note site, although not sure why you would. I also enjoy this one very much. They have changed their cover photo ever so much, between a shot of Byrd playing versus looking out. I prefer this one. This will be one of my few Tone Poet buys this year. https://store.bluenote.com/collections/tone-poet-series/products/donald-byrd-kofi-lp-tone-poet-vinyl-series

Hey Chuck - very cool. Do you have Nessa shirts available for sale?
