Daniel Humair, Marvin Stamm, David Friedman, Sebastien Boisseau - Ear Mix (Sketch, 2003)

Beautiful.

The last entry will be on December 31, 2020. So there's about ten more weeks to go. I'll likely post a few more things after that though. Some wrap-up type stuff. Plus I'll post my list of other records that could've been included in the survey, some of which I have heard, many of which I haven't.

Following jazzbo's lead. More Duke! and

Disc 1

NP: Mal Waldron Quintet - The Git Go - Live at the Village Vanguard (Soul Note, 1987) with Charlie Rouse, Woody Shaw, Reggie Workman, and Ed Blackwell Powerful!

Thank you for the info, sir.

It's excellent. If you like Brooklyn Brothers, you should definitely get it. They're very similar records -- with Tom Harrell added on Bird Gets the Worm (and Buster Williams subbing for Sam Jones).

Yep, I knew about that particular reissue.

Ah, wasn't aware of that UK reissue, bresna. Thanks for the correction/heads-up.

Yessir, you got that right!

Liszt and Lazar Berman.

Oh yeah! I have Hardman's Home, but not the others. Need to keep an eye out for those. Completely forgot about the Cooks, Fords, and Spauldings. Good call!

NP: OJC reissue

Yeah. It's a shame -- because many of those Muse LPs are outstanding! Some of my favorites from the label, none of which have had a digital reissue (to the best of my knowledge): Bill Barron - Jazz Caper Bill Barron - Variations in Blue Joe Bonner - The Lifesaver Joe Bonner - Angel Eyes "Groove" Holmes - Shippin' Out "Groove" Holmes - Good Vibrations Willis Jackson - Headed and Gutted Willis Jackson - West Africa Eric Kloss - Essence Mark Murphy - Sings Mark Murphy - Stolen Moments Cecil Payne - Bird Gets the Worm Sonny Stitt - Blues for Duke Sonny Stitt - My Buddy: Sonny Stitt Plays for Gene Ammons Buddy Tate - Live at Sandy's Buddy Tate - Hard Blowin': Live at Sandy's Mickey Tucker - Mister Mysterious Mickey Tucker - The Crawl Jack Walrath - Wholly Trinity

First spin of a new-to-me LP: Mal Waldron - Mingus Lives (Enja, 1979) I love Mark Helias' band Open Loose, but I'm not familiar with that LP, optatio. Looks very interesting. What do you think of it?
