For me he started getting really interesting in the 'nineties on.

Couldn't agree more.  

[The First Jazz Albums We Owned]

The first "Jazz" lp I purchased and dug immediately was Tribute to Jack Johnson by Miles Davis purchased when it was new and I was newish-sixteen years old.

Mrs. Duckworth had this one playing this morning and took a moment to declare that Roy Haynes is "the best drummer ever."

Ever spend any time with Criss? He could quickly become prickly.

Sounds like a Memphian.

Reasonable me would not have purchased a copy of this record as it was available from my streaming service.  Reasonable me would not be listening to this now.

[Jerry Garcia Stratocaster]

I have struggled with Fender guitars occasionally over the last fifty years.  I find that I am much more satisfied with a Suhr.

Haven't been mining the Eric Dolphy discography for a few years and heard The Baron on the radio and pulled this out.  This was the first Eric Dolphy lp I purchased, yet it remained entirely under-appreciated.  It only took 45 years, but now I really enjoy it.

I really like Rob Mazurek's work and am particularly fond of one called Galactic Parables by his Exploding Star Orchestra.

Great program.

I followed the discussion of this earlier and then actually heard a cut on the radio, purchased a physical copy, and now I can't leave it alone.  Proto-Strata East!

[Streaming questions]

I use Apple Music but utilize my physical collection most of the time.  I've found Apple Music useful as it allows me to stream playlists etc. from my Itunes throughout my house-an essential feature for me.

[Mosaic to release 1960s Freddie Hubbard set]

I fear that I lack Mr. Felser's unfailing good judgement. I too own and really like those Freddie Hubbard Blue Note and Impulse! records, and doubt that collating them and adding an essay will affect my enjoyment and understanding of them. The "improved sound" and "all in one place" arguments are not as convincing as they were before I purchased the more recent Hank Mobley box or Joe Henderson sets.  Strangely, I will, in all likelihood, purchase this collection.

[Michael Henderson 1951-2022]

I picked up Tribute to Jack Johnson when I was 16-it was the first "jazz" record I ever dug from the moment the needle hit the groove.  Michael Henderson was right on time for me.
