Disc 1

Now listening to: Masabumi Kikuchi Quintet - End for the Beginning (Philips, 1973) Universal Japan SHM-CD reissue

This again:

Since Pure Pleasure ended their Strata-East reissue series, I decided to spring for this LP before they're all gone: Shamek Farrah & Sonelius Smith - The World of the Children (Strata-East/Pure Pleasure)

❤️ ❤️

Franco D'Andrea - Quartet Live / My Shuffle (Red, rec. 1985) with: - Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone – Tino Tracanna - Bass – Attilio Zanchi - Drums – Gianni Cazzola

NP: Don Patterson - Steady Comin' at Ya (32 Jazz) Originally released as These Are Soulful Days (Muse, 1974) -- with Jimmy Heath, Pat Martino, and Tootie Heath -- plus three bonus tracks from two other Muse LPs. So true!

Interesting. Thanks for sharing, @ghost of miles.

Now -- More DSCH from Rozhdestvensky. Symphonies Nos. 1 & 6.

Two Shostakovich symphonies from Rozhdestvensky's cycle with the USSR Ministry of Culture SO. Last night - Symphony No. 5 Right now - Symphony No. 10 Unforgettable performances.

Now on my turntable: Lester Swings.

Now streaming this gem:

and

Yes sir! Hard to go wrong with Franklin & (especially) Burnett.

Listening to more Bobby Bradford. With John Stevens this time instead of John Carter.

Now streaming: Such great, vital, beautiful music. Gosh, I wish I would've bought the Carter/Bradford Mosaic Select when it was available. I kick myself for not taking the plunge. But money was super-tight back then; my wife & I were raising our family. . . . Hmm. I might just have to plop for a used copy, if I can find a set that's reasonably priced.

Now playing: Gene Harris & the Three Sounds - Live at the 'It Club' (Blue Note, 1996) with Henry Franklin (b) and Carl Burnett (d); recorded 1970
