  1. Too bad the groove is TOTALLY OFF for most of the first track - A Train, IIRC. At least on my copy. Maybe they corrected this in later pressings. The rest of the album holds together pretty well though.
  2. The Duke Sells Out Duke Ellington Is the Village Green Preservation Society Duke's Nut Gone Flake
  3. The Charles Atlas Course, with DYNAMIC TENSION, can turn you into A BEAST OF A MAN!
  4. But we can still have a very meaningful relationship, right?
  5. Not so sure that in 1969 he foresaw what he would become, hence the inadvertent humor.
  6. I think the lyrics to that are brilliant and very well constructed.
  7. As I've posted before, an inadvertently hilarious album title.
  8. Nearly every Ellington instrumental that had lyrics added later has a clunker.
  9. Love his woodwind arrangements on the Cal Tjader Contemporary Music of Mexico and Brazil. And his bossa album on WP is essential. I don't think it's on CD.
  10. He is one of my heroes. Very underappreciated, at least from I gather.
  11. I missed all the 70s fusion stuff, not surprisingly.
  12. Luiz Bonfa - S/T - Dot (stereo)
  13. Likewise, this is a favorite.
  14. Actually, a very good Lennon bio is the Brian Epstein bio. Lots of interesting Lennon detail that gets overlooked elsewhere.
  15. Jeez, I didn't even know he was still around. Big fan of Aznavour, I've accumulated lots of his vinyl.
  16. I really love the Machito/Dizzy Gillespie album, although some purists may not like the electric bass/funky aspects.
  17. Various - Latin Dance Party - Seeco (rainbow label, mono) A mixed bag. The Machito and Cesar Concepcion tracks are the best. Worth keeping for the cover art if nothing else.
  18. Courtesy of Rostasi. This is the only live footage of them I've ever seen. They come in about 3 minutes before the end, but the entire segment is worth viewing: Thanks Rostasi!
  19. Thanks. I have all of those except the Konitz/Russo. I have found the Bill Russo stuff I've heard kind of ponderous and dull. Hopefully this is an exception.
  20. Other than the Brandeis, what are some of the better third stream albums?
  21. Joe Cuba Sextet - Breakin' Out: A Collection of Their Very Best - Seeco (stereo) The Beatles of my alternate universe.
  22. Walter Wanderley - Samba So - World Pacific (Black and sky blue label, mono) Earlier Brasilian recordings. They misspell his name on the back cover, but not the front.
  23. The show will be archived for exactly one week. You can hear it here, or simply view the playlist: http://wmnf.org/programs/144
  24. Les Baxter - Space Escapade - Captiol (turquoise, mono). This album has that optimistic, sparkly bustling metropolis sound. A nice segue into the holidays without hearing Christmas music. The mono contains overdubs not on the stereo.
