Her name is new to me.

I've never heard either of those. What's the name of the first one?

More George Adams:

Enjoyed this very much. Thanks for sharing, bresna.

Many Argo/Cadet reissues in the 70s featured black-and-white versions of covers that were originally issued in color. They look uber-cheap, as if the covers were made with badly out-of-adjustment Xerox machines. A couple examples: and There's nothing inherently wrong with b&w design, of course. But these just don't work at all, since their original conceptions involved color. That said, I have a few of these LPs. And I'm happy to have the music in some form, even if it's less appealing than the original release.

Now spinning: George Adams/Don Pullen Quartet - Decisions (Timeless, 1984) with Cameron Brown & Dannie Richmond A great band.

I'd put Gallery on the same exalted level as Impala. It also features Geri Allen. (In fact, I may even like Gallery a little bit more than Impala -- but they're both wonderful.) I also agree that the Trio 3 recordings are outstanding. Lastly, Lake's Heavy Spirits is another long-time fave:

Wilbur Ware Quintet featuring Johnny Griffin - The Chicago Sound (Riverside, 1957) OJC vinyl reissue

Jaguar is a fantastic word in English -- but it's even cooler in Portuguese: Yauaretê. and

A shadow? A few tufts of hair?

Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos. 2 & 4 / Fleisher, Szell, Cleveland O (Sony)

Yesssssss !!!!

Great record.

The Compleat Bud Freeman (Monmouth Evergreen, rec. 1969) with fellow members of the World's Greatest Jazz Band: Ralph Sutton, Bob Haggart, and Gus Johnson, Jr. Bob Wilber also appears on half the cuts.

Yeah.

Now spinning: Rufus Reid Trio - Perpetual Stroll (Theresa, 1981) with Kirk Lightsey and Eddie Gladden
