Don't sleep on Chico Hamilton. It would be easy to, and sometimes you have to. But not always, no!

Could it be any greater?

That's the one with Don Draper, right? My wife has been watching that, it looks good enough!

Peaches had them by "the hundreds" in their cutout racks back in the day. Seemed like the more time passed, the more mangled they got!

The art world is no different than the rest of the world If you want to believe something, there will be somebody to give it to you. And there will likely also be people to see to it that you find that somebody. And then everybody gets what they want. It is, after all, the world. This one, anyway.

The Joe Williams was done with Horace Ott at the helm, so it's "that kind of thing". But Joe himself is excellent all the way, at times majestic. Of its time, as they say.

I don't mean the art itself, I mean the "art world". Totally different things.

No, what's great about the world of art is how is all the people who want to throw praise and/ or money your way if you play your cards right.

Bob Brookmeyer on trumpet!!!!!

IIRC, the first few Newport In New York festivals had nighttime big band dances every night. One of (maybe the only) leaders) was Benny Carter. So that explains that!

The right band for this gig!!!

I think it's an in-between-er. And the arrangements are rudimentary in the extreme. Totally uninspired.

Miller Brisker is a perfect jazz tenor player name!

The backings are the work of Monk Higgins. Another one is Stanley Turrentine's Flipped Out..

Yes!!! Thank you!!!

You have options then.

I guess I remember seeing him twice - Once with Miles, early 80s, and then a year or so later with a group of Freddie Hubbard, McCoy, and somebody? on bass. Two different gigs, both played perfectly.

Long as she brings her own board...

So you're taking Grace Kelley with you?

Thank you. Thing?

Are you inclined to mention your line of work?

So versatile, and so perfect with it. RIP

Amazon DLs used to not be the highest available quality. Has that changed? Good calls on Joe Williams. Jack McDuff and Jimmy McGriff.
