Sorry to hear this news. R.I.P. This is the Laine album that I've enjoyed more than any others:

Since original copies of this private pressing LP fetch absurd sums, I'd love to see someone reissue it. I suppose it's not likely, however. . . . Oh well. At least it's available for streaming. Aside from ND's excellent playing, that rhythm section is something special.

R.I.P.

Disc 1

Al Haig Trio and Sextets Featuring Stan Getz and Wardell Gray (Period/OJC)

Disc 1 of 2

R.I.P. Like @felser, I'm partial to Galper's excellent 1970s band with the Michael Brecker and Randy Brecker.

Now: Pierre Dørge & New Jungle Orchestra - Music from the Danish Jungle (Dacapo DK, 1996) I only got this recently, and I'm really enjoying it. The music is full of vitality. Is there any higher praise?!?

Now spinning: Milton Nascimento - Encontros e Despedidas (Polydor, 1985) The album title translates to English as Meetings and Farewells.

with Hank Jones, Monty Budwig, and Jeff Hamilton

More Moravec & Chopin: - Barcarolle in F# Major, Opus 60 - Etude in C# Minor, Opus 25, No. 7 - Mazurka in C# Minor, Opus 50, No. 3 - Mazurka in C# Minor, Opus 63, No. 3 - Mazurka in A Minor, Opus 7, No. 2 - Mazurka in C Major, Opus 24, No. 2 - Mazurka in A Minor, Opus 17, No. 4 - Scherzo, No. 1 in B Minor, Opus 20

Now on my turntable: Chopin's Ballades performed by Ivan Moravec, as heard in this set: Exquisite. I've been on a Chopin kick lately. Sounds like I should track down that Cherkassky recording.
