Both TREMENDOUS, imho. I happened to see Santana in concert a few weeks ago. He's still a very powerful musician.

I really like that one. NP: Earlier:

Oh yeah! I love their records with Booker. I only wish they'd made at least one trio record together. More BYARD please! . . . BTW, that rhythm section with Woods at the Frankfurt Jazz Fest is nothing to sneeze at either: Gordon Beck, Henri Texier, and Daniel Humair. They can burn with the best of 'em. Now this:

Now: Yesterday:

More Diz:

Ugh. Awful if KB is really experiencing this dire situation. Awful if this is a scam. Be cautious, folks.

Pairing Dizzy with Basie may seem odd at first glance -- but they are locked in the moment the music starts. This is a great record.

Yeah!!! You cannot go wrong with Cedar Walton.

and

The Three [Joe Sample, Ray Brown, Shelly Manne] - S/T (Eastwind / Inner City, 1975)

Lucky Thompson - I Offer You (Groove Merchant, 1973) with Cedar Walton, Sam Jones, and Louis Hayes Oh, man. This is gorgeous music.

This again:

Moody ROOOLz !!!

and

MJT + 3 - Branching Out (Trip Jazz) 2-LP set of material originally released on VeeJay

Various Artists - Capitol Jazz Classics, Vol. 6 (Capitol) A recent dollar-bin find. Good stuff.

Two great records, IMO.

Thanks Jim. Will give that a listen. I've been listening to trombonist Al Grey -- both as a co-leader and sideman: Al Grey / Jimmy Forrest Quintet - Live at Rick's (Aviva) Grey and Forrest are a powerful duo, and there's NOTHING stale about this music. Plus, Shirley Scott on the piano. Jimmy McGriff - Blues to the Bone (Milestone) IMO, when it comes to soul-jazz, Bob Porter's name on the Producer's credits is like the "Good Housekeeping" Seal of Approval.

Philips LPs imported from Europe usually sound sooooooo good. And that music looks interesting too. I'm not too familiar with Penderecki. I have his Violin Concerto with Stern, Skrowaczewski, and the Minnesota O -- but I think that's it.
