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!

Most definitely. Always a great choice.

Love her. One of my favorite vocal records:

This would work for me on every level.

Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time and La La La La La Means I Love You are classics forever.

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.

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.

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.

This is a great record...

emoji thing here.

This show was right on time for me as I am very interested in hearing the Mel Powell contributions. Thanks.

Been listening to this particular Tony Williams group all week-it all started with listening to Mulgrew Miller.

The Hot 5's and many of the Hot 7's (Discs 1 and most of 2).

Outstanding work, sir.

Finding the complete Verve recordings of Bud Powell to be exactly the correct choice-a disc a day-this week.

Lots of good Jabbo Smith, but for some reason, I am particularly fond of Monette Moore's reading of Don't You Leave Me Here.

In my youth it was common for drug stores, grocery stores, etc to have a small selection lp's for sale. Along with Mingus Ah Um, Ellington Indigos was seemingly omnipresent in these small clusters of record offerings. I, of course, purchased it, but failed to understand it for many, many years. Luckily I have a copy now as it is strangely challenging to find in the digital domain.
