Wow. Thank you for posting this!

I love this record.

This was my first Gil Evans LP so long ago. It still works for me.

I'm triple vaxed as well as flu vaxed and I have recently contracted Covid. It is not as mild as I was led to believe it would be for a vaccinated individual. In retrospect it seems inevitable that I would contract this illness, working as I do in that Government sponsored petri dish, the public schools. To its credit my school district has a mask mandate in defiance of the state governor's specific order against any such restrictions.

Alternating new box set disc 1 with this.

I caught Ronnie Spector at the Limelight in NYC just shy of forty years ago. It was an energetic performance; to this day I have never seen any performer grab his/her crotch as much as she did.

Yeah! Both Bascomb brothers-Paul gets a good helping on Sweet Georgia Brown.

Checked it out and now I want another Sonny Stitt album. i thought I had it covered...

Mrs. Duckworth put this on and brought me coffee in bed this morning-every bit as good as I could hope for.

I ran across this, and it was the highlight of my day (so far).

I very much want to find this one.

I keep finding new things that I enjoy about this set; right now it's Mel Powell.

I find this sad and puzzling. In his autobiography Zappa talks about being so impressed with a late night Art Ensemble of Chicago performance at The Amougies Festival that he attempted to wake up fellow attendees with, I believe, fireworks.

Make a Jazz Noise Here.

I regularly go back to this set-usually for the Bob Cooper material.

I like these first person accounts-puts me in mind of this classic covering the first decades of jazz:

Mars Williams, the great tenor player whom I know (best) from Hal Russell's NRG Ensemble, has over the last few years been releasing records wherein he plays Albert Ayler tunes and Christmas related music together.

Enjoying the Warne Marsh elements of this set and re-reading the excellent notes.

Judy Garland, baby. And while we're at it, let's remove the more child friendly lyrics from Winter Wonderland and return it to its original carnal intent.

I'm so sorry to hear this...
