One of these years I'm going to attend, but probably not this year.

Dave Holland/Kevin Eubanks/Obed Calvaire, Another Land

Generations Suite. I was underwhelmed by both of them; but I should try again.

Cal Tjader, Cuban Fantasy (Fantasy)

Actually, there are two Bridgewater Brothers LPs on Denon.

Introducing the Gene Rodgers Trio, Jazz Comes to The Astor (Mercury). A rather good pianist whose name had never registered with me before, but he recorded with King Oliver as a teenager, and is the pianist backing Coleman Hawkins on Body and Soul. Now interested in his Black and White leader date. The Best of Herbie Mann (Prestige) Shirley Scott, Soul Song (Atlantic)

No, I don’t think you can, at least as an option from the manufacturer.

No blue ray/dvd drive in the current iMac. I am starting to need a new car but my current car has a cd player; you can plug in an iPod; and burn cds to a harddrive. I hate to give that up.

The Apple SuperDrive is simply a plug-in CD drive since the drive is no longer standard equipment in Apple computers, presumably because most users view it as obsolete. Hence, as a user of non-current music storage devices, I get to pay extra. It may also play DVDs; I have not tried.

One of my favorites.

The SuperDrive recognizes the CD right away. Faster than the cd drive in my old iMac.

Hank Crawford, Night Beat (Milestone)

John Handy, Live at the Monterey Jazz Festival (Columbia)

I just got a new iMac and purchased a USB Superdrive from the Apple Store. I haven't had any problems transferring music from CD to my iMac hard drive. Just open Appie Music and, when you load a CD into the Superdrive, the Superdrive shows up on the left side of Apple Music, right under the iTunes store. Just click on it and then it works just like iTunes worked in terms of displaying the CD and importing the CD into the computer (that is, uncheck any songs you don't want to transfer and then click on Import) At least, that is how it has worked on my computer. It seems absurd that you would not be able to do the same thing with a 2017 iMac. Is your iMac updated to the latest operating system? Transferring the music from the iMac to an iPhone however exceeds my current skills.
