Got the discs this moring. Thanks very much, Jim.
Disc 1
1. Don Byron, I'd guess. I'm quite sure Reggie Washington (can be heard on many Steve Coleman recordings) is the bass player. Very enjoyable music, nice keyboard sounds.
2. Sounds a bit stiff. Don't know who, don't know when (early 80ies?).
3. I know nothing about organ players, no guess. Great track.
4. Must be Flora Purim with her husband. Very nice song.
5. A Klezmer Marching band? I have no clue.
6. Leaves me cold. Branford Marsalis, Jeff "Tain" Watts come to mind.
7. Got this last week, otherwise I probably wouldn't have recognized it. Track #2
8. Energetic alto saxophone playing, like it - don't know who. Piano reminds of Tyner but I don't think it's him.
9. No idea. Nice mood music.
10. Pharoah Sanders. Bill Henderson piano?
11. The vocals are not my cup of tea. The song is Nature Boy. Horns and drums sound somewhat buried here.
12. McCoy Tyner Big Band. Great stuff, great energy.
A very enjoyable compilation. Will listen to the bonus disc tomorrow morning.
