Yes, please. Download.

I think track 11 is a lovely piece. The piano player's style really works for me. I will probably check this one out further when we get the ID. I read the comments after my first post, so I know why I'm attracted to track 12. Dennis Gonzalez. One of my favorites. This is another beautiful piece of music. Mr. Gonzalez' CD “Idle Wild” is one of my most played. I enjoyed the last track overall but the drumming was my favorite part. Maybe some similarities to Paul Motion? I'm not very bright, so could you guys explain what you mean by studied? If I haven't said it already and even if I have, thanks a lot for this BFT. Some really good music for my taste.

Terrific BFT. A number of cuts sound like things I should know but it may be that I would just like to think my taste in music is as good as yours. I am not good at writing about what I hear. Most of the time I get by commenting only on the stuff I like, if you don't have anything good to say and all. I am going to be exposed here, however, because there isn't much I don't like. The opening track is sort of odd (for lack of a better word) in that the trumpet intro just drops out of sight and the end sounds to me like it cuts off in mind stream also. Is this part of a longer piece? I especially like the contribution from the trumpet, percussion and piano. The vibes player on track 02 is my favorite of the “younger” guys. I'm pretty sure it's Jason Adasiewicz, if not these comments will be pretty stupid. This is a nice cut and I really like his style but mostly I think he is more adventurous when he plays with the larger groups. Track 03 in style sounds like a lot of things I've heard so I right away started going through possible suspects. Then I came to my senses and just enjoyed the music. The horns really compliment each other and the drummer has a nice solo. Not sure what to say about track 05 except that I like it. Again the horn players really work well together. Surprise, 06 is another winner for me. Kind of similar in tempo to the previous track. Another nice ensemble track also. For some reason I'm feeling Italian. Track 07 isn't really my favorite but the vibes player is pretty good. Joe Locke comes to mind. Neat take on track 08 of a well know tune, I think. Monk? I am bothered because I know the tune but can't think of it. Kind of like seeing Rod Steiger in a movie on TV the other day, knowing who he was, knowing he won the Oscar for In The Heat Of The Night but being able to remember his name. My doctor says this is the normal aging process but I don't like it. Track 09, another winner for me. The piano gets a lot of room and has a real nice solo but I'll guess it's the trombone player's album. Kind of reminds me of a subdued Ray Anderson. That is all I will subject you to for now.

I have a copy that is not in the best condition, particularly the cover. I will make you a deal you can't refuse if you are interested.

The only chance the budget has is staying off this forum and the internet in general. The Louis Moholo Moholo CD mentioned above also has my interest. That's two CDs in five posts.

Terrific music, Alex, thanks very much. Thanks, A Lark Asending, also for bring it up. I hope to have another listen before it goes bye bye. The Crispel/Dresser/Hemingway piece was interesting also. Something else that will go on my "buy list". Sadly my music budget doesn't keep up with my wants. Thanks again.

Thanks again for the BFT.

I believe I would like to be involved in this. Download for me. Thank you very much.

This is likely a fool's errand but I would like to find a copy of "Jazz Italiano Live 2007, Franco D'Andrea with special guest Fabrizio Bosso". This is apparently part of a series of live CDs that were sold with an Italian magazine or something like that. Thanks for any thoughts.

I'm going to Carolina, not just in my mind, so I'd better at least get a thank you comment in. Your BFT really exposes my lack of knowledge. Nice music all around, just not what I normally sit back in the easy chair and listen to. I listened to the BFT on my morning walk the last three days and enjoyed it very much. I would do some critical listening to the trumpet player on track 3. Top shelf. Kind of sounds familiar, maybe on some previous BFT. The only complaint is that the track was too short. I guess he said what he wanted to say. I also like the last track quite a bit, the piano player in particular. Kind of an odd style and different sound to the instrument, no. Thanks very much for the music.

Thanks again for the BFT. Really enjoyed your comments.

This is off of the topic of your sale, but WOW! What a collection.

I would like to hear your BFT - download thanks.

Jeff, All this discussion has me wanting to try it again; if you will still be willing to do the download and if you think you all can stand to listen to more of my stuff.

That sounds good to me also. Honestly, Hot Ptah and Jim R's comments were kind of winning me over. The bottom line is that I really enjoy the BFTs and am very happy to be involved. Thanks.

I voted for a limited BFT. Maybe I just have a shorter attention span than most. Also, even though I'm a retired person, I still don't find time to listen to as much music as I would like. When I sign up for a BFT, I actually do feel obligated to listen to it all. Someone put in time and effort to give it to me. And I do feel an obligation to make some kind of comment or at least a thank you. I have failed at that and I'm sorry to anyone I've slighted. I don't have alot of comments because quite honestly, I'm not all that knowledgeable about music. I just like to listen to new things. On the presenter side, I thought there was a one CD limit already. Part of the fun for me was trying different combinations to come up with something that met the parameters. As it was, I think a good share of the listeners thought I should have been limited to 20 minutes. :

Well, I do agree with you on Tony Bennett v Frank Sinatra. I shouldn't have lead with what I didn't like because I'm really much more interested to find out about track 1.

I have two login names. I wonder how I managed that.

I was hoping that someone more knowledgeable about the Bozzie's CDs might answer. But since NIS hasn't gotten any answer yet, I'll say that this is the only dedicated Boswell Sisters CD I have, and I like it. It's not perfect - some of my favorite Bozzie tracks are on other albums in my collections (Bunny Berigan and Jack Purvis sets, to be specific) - but it's good. It's OOP but not hard to find or particularly expensive Thanks Jeff. I was really quite taken by the track DrJ included and want to hear more.

"Visions" - Walt Dickerson/Sun Ra

Dave Stryker, an Omaha boy made good. Can you, or anybody else, suggest some other albums to check into for the Boswell Sisters? Thanks very much for the BFT.

May I have a download, please.

Got a turntable? Don't know what albums you are looking for but I have this one on LP. If you are interested, let me know.

We skyped with our son and 20 month old grandaughter this afternoon.
