  1. More KB: Kenny Burrell - Soul Call (Prestige, 1964) Another (overlooked?) Burrell album that's a favorite of mine.
  2. The Kenny Burrell Quartet - The Tender Gender (Cadet, 1966) with Richard Wyands (p), Martin Rivera (b), and Oliver Jackson (d) KB swings every single note. And that tone! Day-um!
  3. Yes! That Boult set is IMPRESSIVE. Rozhdestvensky's recordings of Shostakovich's music are always interesting, IMO.
  4. Santana - Welcome (Columbia, 1973)
  5. Doug Carn - Revelation - featuring Jean Carn (Black Jazz/Real Gone Music) Excellent!
  6. 10.5 games back in June... and then sweeping three games from the Mets over the weekend, beating both DeGrom and Scherzer... Yeah. Don't count this team out until it is over.
  7. In my early 20s, I inherited a large record collection from my wife's Great Aunt Carrie. The collection had belonged to Carrie's daughter Marie, who had died in the late-1960s. Marie's main interest was country music. Her collection was full of stuff that, for the most part, had never been on my radar before. Of all the music that I discovered among those LPs, Loretta Lynn's was the most powerful. She was an amazing singer.
  8. Rab, Here are my selections for the last three weeks: - Phil Woods' Little Big Band - Evolution (Concord, 1988) - Greg Osby - Mindgames (JMT/Winter & Winter, 1988) - Bobby Bradford-John Carter Quintet - Comin' On (hatOLOGY, 1989) - Trio Transition - Trio Transition with Special Guest Oliver Lake (DIW, 1988) - Jane Ira Bloom - Slalom (Columbia/Enja, 1988) - Joe Lovano Quintet - Village Rhythm (Soul Note, 1989) - Charles Earland - Front Burner (Milestone, 1988) - Michele Rosewoman & Quintessence - Contrast High (Enja, 1989) - Gary Thomas & Seventh Quadrant - Code Violations (Enja, 1988) No commentary. But at least there's something.
  9. Of course! Looks like a wonderful place to be!
  10. Austrian mountain hut full of jazz records with Pim? Yeah man, bring it on !!!
  11. I haven't heard those. Will have to keep an eye out for them. The only other Gertz & Gonz album that I know is Red Handed on Double-Time.
  12. He's got some good ears. And I'm running behind. Hopefully, I'll catch up this weekend.
  13. @Pim -- Two doozies!
  14. Prompted by the Gertz and Gonz post above by @bresna:
  15. 2 LPs on 1 CD
  16. Machito & His Afro Cuban Orchestra - Mambo Mucho Mambo - the Complete Columbia Masters (Legacy) and Al Cohn - Play It Now (Xanadu) Cohn in excelsis.
  17. Now: Machito Orchestra con Lalo Rodriguez - ¡Vamos a Bailar! (Discos Caballo) reissue of title originally released as Fireworks (Coco, 1977) Earlier: Louis Armstrong - Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography (Decca/Verve) Disc 3 Terrific!
  18. Earlier this evening, prompted by OP talk on another thread: Oscar Peterson with Joe Pass & NHØP - The Paris Concert: Salle Pleyel, 1978 I dig this set.
  19. Beautiful indeed. THANK YOU for sharing that, Dan!
  20. Yeah. Right on! That's why the endless debate seems so absurd.
  21. IMO, there's no such thing as "wrong" when it comes to musical preferences. I'll give One In Two - Two In One another listen.
  22. More Barretto: Ray Barretto & New World Spirit - Taboo (Concord Picante, 1994) This album isn't astounding like the compilation above (IMO). It's more straightforwardly conventional "Latin Jazz". Even so, I still really dig it. Check out the selection of tunes. Along with a few originals, they cover Nat's "Work Song," Stanley's "Brother Tom," and McCoy's "Effendi" -- plus "Lazy Afternoon." It works. That one has never quite grabbed me like Birth and Rebirth. ... What are your impressions? Maybe it's time to pull it from the shelf & give it another listen.
  23. Ray Barretto - Jazz (Fania, 2008) Superb collection of jazz- and descarga-oriented Fania cuts, compiled by Bobby Sanabria. I'm often not a fan of compilation albums -- but this is off the chain! I'd chalk it up at a full FIVE stars.
