Looks like they're not available on Spotify here in the U.S.

Has anyone heard the Dizzy CDs?

Cal Tjader - The Grace Cathedral Concert (Fantasy)

John Scofield - Bar Talk (Novus, 1980) with Steve Swallow & Adam Nussbaum

Willis Jackson with Pat Martino - Single Action (Muse, rec. 1978)

NP: A Portrait of Julian Dash (Master Jazz, 1970) with Jimmy Shirley, Cliff Smalls, Milt Hinton, and George Foster Earlier: Dave Liebman & Richie Beirach - Balladscapes (Intuition, 2016) Gorgeous playing by two masters of the art. Harold and Hutch sound SO good here. This is my all-time favorite release issued on the Mainstream label. Happy Easter to all who celebrate it! Happy Passover to all who celebrate it! Happy regular ol' Sunday to everybody else!

Wayne.

More Stokowski:

Tchaikovsky: Francesca Da Rimini; Hamlet / Leopold Stokowski, Stadium Symphony Orchestra of New York [aka the NYPO] (Everest) This music is right in Stoki's wheelhouse. Ashkenazy's entire Sibelius cycle is excellent, imho. Great Decca sound too!

Yes indeed!

Still on a Enrico Pieranunzi kick: Disc 2

Excellent! I just wish the audio fidelity was a little better. Lately, I keep coming back to this: Enrico Pieranunzi & Bert van den Brink - Daedalus' Wings (Challenge) As compelling as any two-piano duos I've heard.

Mal Waldron Quintet - Where Are You? (Soul Note, 1989) I love the Sonny Fortune/Ricky Ford two-sax front line on this record. The saxes sound terrific here -- just as they do on the other record from this same session, Crowd Scene.

If your name is Ella and you're a singer, you BETTER be good! NP: The Progressive Don Friedman (Progressive, 1978) with Frank Luther (b) & Billy Hart (d)

Abdullah Ibrahim - Mindif (Enja) with a stellar line-up -- Abdullah Ibrahim (p, fl, vo); Ricky Ford (ts, ss); Craig Handy (ts, fl); Benny Powell (tb); David Williams (b) and Billy Higgins (d, perc)

Mads Vinding Trio - The Kingdom (Where Nobody Dies) (Stunt) with Enrico Pieranunzi & Alex Riel

Don Friedman - Avenue of the Americas (Owl, rec. 1979) Solo piano. Just picked this up today at Wuxtry in Decatur. First listen. Really enjoying it.
