Again (this is a good one) followed by:

Over the last day:

Tonight's listening - a couple of CD's my good friend BillF kindly shared with me from his collection. There were at least 15-20 more.

I will miss him. He was a good friend on this Board. I had several long Skype calls with him over the past few years. He was a very interesting and intelligent fellow whose tastes in jazz often coincided with mine. R.I.P. my friend.

👍 👍 Now:

Add this new one to your collection: I have only heard it on itunes, but it's excellent, perhaps the best of all. I forgot about "Groove Shop" which I also have in my collection (but I don't have Absolutely!)

👍 Now:

That's a good one. This one is even better IMHO. Now:

I'm sure you're doing fine. Sometimes it's good to just listen to someone with somewhat different tastes than your own. Maybe you'll learn something new and grow to appreciate OP trio records more. I have been listening to jazz (almost exclusively) for over 50 years. I'm sure I have purchased at least 10,000 recordings (and listened to them all, many several times). And I'm still learning and hearing new things, even in old favorites. There's no end to it. And I'm sure there won't be, as long as my mind and hearing are still good.

👍 Now:
