  1. And 80 total points at that.
  2. Wild weekend so far. This Dallas/Bears game is basically being played as defense optional so could be in store for more craziness.
  3. Read the article but remain unclear as to what this means for the project. Maybe I missed something in the article?
  4. 1. Sounds like a familiar song but I'm drawing a blank. Was this recorded in the 80s? It's got a sentimentality to it. 2. Classic hard bop. Maybe from the 70s? I hear some Tolliver and Hubbard in that trumpet. Clean tone on the sax but I can't make them out. Pianist vocalizes it sounds like. I'm totally missing this one but it's a good tune. 3. I really start digging it more after the intro. Drummer is crisp. Khan Jamal on vibes? If so would it be Byard Lancaster on sax? I'm probably way off there. Regardless, excellent song. 4. A standard I recognize but can't name. OP on keys? 5. I dig the style but hate the way they were recorded. Everyone on max volume. At least it sounds that way on this Bluetooth speaker I'm using. Could be South African jazz? 6. What style is this? I want to say Gypsy but that sounds wrong. Anyway, clarinet is well played. No guesses. 7. Good tune. Probably a big time trumpet player but no guesses. 8. Heavy duty. From the 70s maybe? Love this song as well. Yeah this is definitely one I would want to pick up. 9. Disco inflected jazz. These theatrical style vocals are always difficult for me to get into. No idea who this is. 10. Better vocal style to my ears. The scatting was top notch. She could carry this solo but the music behind her is good. Biddly Diddly Doo baby. 11. Ok, blues jazz. I like the variety of styles in this bft. Sounds like it's from the 50s. Or a 50s style recorded in the early 60s. It's going to be awesome when I'm totally wrong on all that. I'm not sure who the trumpet player is but I suspect they're the leader. 12. Sound like a modern noire style. Got some funk to it. A bit of sentimentality too like the first track. Hate I can't make more guesses here! Well, looking forward to the reveal and others' thoughts on these to see if I was anywhere close. Thanks for putting it together. Glad you knew this one. Checking them out now. Patti Cathcart has an interesting bio.
  5. Let's see here...I called Konitz's alto a tenor in my notes, whiffed on the Galper tune and missed again with Cool Struttin'. My takes this time = 💩 Thanks for the tunes though. Lots of new artists here for me.
  6. I've always used the hard K instead of the 'kw' sound but how did Percy say it?
  7. Have you listened to any Pablo Held or Portico Quartet? Portico 's Monument is a good album.
  8. Looks like 3 per discogs, with Lone Hill putting out a double CD of all 3 in 2005. That's now on my radar.
  9. Lol. Funny bc it's true.
  10. It's possible. After looking it over I think this was a DJ or radio LP. Boogaloo-ish track Blind Man Blind Man is almost unplayable. Glad I got this for el cheapo. Would definitely upgrade this bc the music is worth it.
  11. Recent purchase on LP in part inspired by the recent Clark Terry thread. Great music. I like this way more than I thought I would. Only bad thing is the pressing leans heavy into snaps and crackles. Was this common with Mainstream LPs by chance? I don't have any other Mainstream records, just CDs so just wondering if this is somewhat of a known factor with their vinyl.
