  1. Weekly Recap - PLAYING FAVORITES: Reflections on Jazz in the 1970s Vic Dickenson – Plays Bessie Smith: 'Trombone Cholly' (Sonet, 1976) Martial Solal & Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen – Movability (MPS/PAUSA, 1976) Archie Shepp – Steam (Enja, 1976) John Lewis & Helen Merill – John Lewis / Helen Merrill (Mercury, 1977) Toshiko Akiyoshi - Lew Tabackin Big Band – Insights (RCA, 1976) Teddy Edwards – The Inimitable Teddy Edwards (Xanadu/Elemental, 1976) Sun Ra & His Arkestra – Live at Montreux (Saturn/Inner City, 1976) A solid batch, I think. This week, I was able to provide a few sentences and YT videos for each entry. Be sure to take a peek at the blog.
  2. More from the Claude Williamson Trio with Sam Jones & Roy Haynes:
  3. NP: Claude Williamson Trio - La Fiesta (Discovery; originally released on Interplay) Roy Haynes !!!
  4. Yes, it's treble-y for sure. ... But, as you say, excellent return to form musically. NP:
  5. Bill Barron - Jazz Caper (Muse, rec. 1978; rel. 1982)
  6. Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers - Gypsy Folk Tales (Roulette, 1977) Young Bobby Watson tearing it up . . .
  7. Graciela y Mario [Bauzá] - La Botánica (Coco Records, 1977)
  8. While watching the Braves vs. Mets game with the TV muted:
  9. The Braves opening game is in less than 2 hours, and they've just announced that both of their catchers have COVID-19 symptoms -- so neither can play.
  10. Outstanding. The ERMs best maybe. Mingus and Kirk on fire!
  11. Low jazz quotient. But still very enjoyable.
  12. FWIW, I think the final Keystone recordings are much more successful than the last ones from the Vanguard. ... Not even close.
  13. Richie Beirach - ZAL (Trio, Japan) Beautiful duos with Yoshiaki Masuo (g) and Terumasa Hino (tr)
  14. NP: Earlier: I like the cuts with Clay, but -- IMO -- the tracks with Buster and Land are the bee's knees.
