I think you'll thoroughly enjoy both of those, T.D.!

Speaking of Famous Door, this is another Doozy: It features Hank Jones and Papa Jo Jones on side 1 and Jimmy Rowles and Donald Bailey on side 2.

Well done!

Now spinning: Various Artists - The Panassié Sessions (RCA Victor, rec. 1938-39) Sidney Bechet!!! Glorious Mal.

Found these two LPs earlier today at a local shop: and

I'm familiar with what you're describing with some DG vinyl. I think the CD issue does indeed sound better.

I love it. Sounds great too. I am a fan of Rafael Kubelik's conducting in general.

NP: David Liebman Quintet - Doin' It Again (Timeless, rec. 1979) with Terumasa Hino, John Scofield, Ron McClure, and Adam Nussbaum

Next up: Ross Tompkins and Good Friends (Concord, 1978) with Al Cohn, Monty Budwig, and Nick Ceroli Al Cohn elevates this date, making it something much better than ordinary. Now that you mention it, it does indeed look like a sticker.

Now spinning: Harold Mabern - Rakin' and Scrapin' (Prestige, rec. 1968) OJC LP reissue Very cool. That particular line-up -- with Mraz & Foster -- only lasted for one album. Beginning with their second LP, Quest II, the bassist was Ron McClure and the drummer was Billy Hart. I've never had a chance to see Quest live, but I did see Liebman & Beirach as a duo at Mezzrow back in 2019.

Quest [D. Liebman, R. Beirach, G. Mraz, A. Foster] - Quest (Trio JP/Palo Alto Jazz, 1982)

Attila Zoller - Memories of Pannonia (Enja, 1986)

Prompted by @T.D.'s post earlier today: Michal Urbaniak, Tomasz Stanko, Attila Zoller, Urszula Dudziak - We'll Remember Komeda (MPS, 1973)

Dave Holland Quintet - Seeds of Time (ECM, 1985)

Next up: Oscar Peterson Trio + One Clark Terry (Mercury, 1964)

From Baden Powell to another exceptional Brazilian guitarist: Laurindo Almeida with Salli Terri, a.o. - Duets with the Spanish Guitar, Album 3 (Angel) Originally released as For My True Love (Capitol, 1959)

Next up: Baden Powell - Face au Public (Barclay FR, 1972) Recorded 5-6 October 1970, Sankei Hall, Tokyo

This looks very interesting. Has anyone heard it before? If so, care to share your impressions? Disregard the above. Found this:

Now spinning: Yes. Me too.

Disc 5: Symphonies Nos. 7 & 8

Now playing: Disc 1 - works by Debussy, Ravel, and Mussorgsky

Excellent!
