Tom 1960

I want to say somebody off of social media made a recommendation recently about picking up this release. I have to say this is an excellent date after listening to it both last night and today. It features the frontline of Freddie Hendrix on trumpet and Bruce Williams on alto sax. Both these players put in fine performances. Especially Hendrix who at times just plays his ass off on this release. If you're looking for a good straight-ahead jazz release and of course Stanley Cowell, how can you go wrong with this? Highly recommended.

Awesome! I can do that.

Any news?

I was pretty certain you would enjoy this. Kenny as usual always put in a solid performance. The icing on the cake is the playing of Joe Farnsworth on the session. Really makes the date for me.

Wondering out loud whether my friend Bill F has heard this yet?

Wading my way through this collection the past few days. 7 discs in out of 12 so far.

Sounds like it would be worth the wait.

This release combines two albums from the early 70s for Capricorn. Realization and Inside Out. Looking for the CD version at a reasonable price. PM me if you like.

Got my booster shot yesterday at a walk-in clinic 15 miles away. There were about two dozen of us standing outside the doors shortly before 8 a.m.. Once the doors opened I was out the door at 8:32. Had a bit of a headache later in the day and some fatigue but feel back to normal today.

One of our fellow board members offered me up an extra copy of the Live In Tokyo album Japanese issue. I should have that in my hands by the end of next week. I look forward to hearing this.

I have heard great things about this album. I see Wounded Bird reissued this album several years ago. It appears however it was not remastered. I also see a Sony Japanese issue which has been remastered. I guess the question is this. Would it be worth spending some extra money on getting the Japanese issue versus the Wounded Bird issue? Does it really matter? i probably already know the answer to this but I would like to hear from people in the know that are more familiar with this album. Thoughts are much appreciated.

Looks like Clayton Kershaw will become a free agent. As a long time Dodger fan I would hate to see him go, but he's been so injury prone the past 3 or 4 years it might be time to move on. He was an incredible pitcher in his prime, but those days are long gone. Hopefully the Dodgers can find another quality arm.

A terrific show last night I attended with Kevin and friends. To be honest I didn't know much about Wayne except he was a solid player and what little I was able to listen to on Spotify. Outstanding show. The band featured, Orrin Evans on piano, Ugonna Okegwo on bass and Mark Whitfield Jr. on drums. It didn't hurt that we sat in the front row center either.

Getting through this at a snails pace but that's just me. I do love the book.

Really enjoying this . Recent purchase from Dusty Groove.
