Thank you for sharing this, @Daniel A.

Yeah!

This again: The L.A. Four [Laurindo Almeida, Bud Shank, Ray Brown, Shelly Manne] - Going Home (East Wind, 1977) Every instrument on this album is beautifully recorded. Today, I'm listening carefully to Shelly Manne. What a superb drummer! He's always swinging, always lifting up the music.

Excellent.

Magnificent EKE set.

The more, the merrier.

Now playing: CD 6 - Schubert's Symphonies No. 8 "Unfinished" and No. 9 "The Great" Wonderful performances. Magisterial interpretations.

Thank you for the feedback, @felser!
