Come With Me was a hit here in Rio Marcus

maybe this is stupid but one of the things that always keeps me amazed on Street of Dreams is the absence of a bass player. btw, any recommendations on other albums with the same ingredients? (drums,vibes,guitar & organ) Marcus

i think Green Street is fantastic Street Dreams is one that i'm constantly visiting and after each audition i'm more convinced that it's a wonderful record. what a great lineup too Marcus

Hey Lon i'm glad you're enjoying this Marcus

btw, it's a very fertile period for the Musica Preta Brasileira movement Banda Black Rio is back, new bands such as Clube do Balanço or Farofa Carioca are great, Seu Jorge (no, it's not Jorge Ben) is a fantastic composer and it's about to release his second album and Paula Lima is a great singer too. Zé Ricardo is promoting his third album + a nice DVD and Tim Maia's son is releasing his debut album. O som nao pode parar Marcus

Chuckyd, you should try the album "Benjor" from 1989 and of course the fabulous Acustico (Unplugged) from 2003, available also on DVD Salve Jorge!! Marcus

for those who like MPB (Musica Preta Brasileira) and sambafunk this DVD has just been released and it's absolutely amazing! Simoninha canta Jorge Ben Jor (Simoninha sings Jorge Ben) Marcus

i've probably said this on the earlier thread but Domino is my favorite RRK Marcus

Harold Mabern Trio - Straight Street (DIW)

thanks a lot Chuck & Brownie a friend of my dad was asking me if i wanted this as a gift...now i know the answer Marcus

maybe not hardbop or whatever but Omar Hakim is a favorite of mine too Marcus

It's definately an intriguing album. Certainly hard to pigeonhole. Which is nice. ←

i would like to have more details about this particular album and i've already checked AMG thanks in advance Marcus

i should admit that i got this album because of Roy Hargrove Marcus

as a CTI enthousiastic, i easily recommend all those Hubbards mentioned Marcus

Disclaimer: I'm a big Charlap fan. ←

Blakey, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Louis Hayes, Art Taylor and many others... Marcus

and i thought i was going crazy thinking about Ellington on track 12.....what a relief Marcus

yesterday i had a nice and relaxing evening listening to DISC I T1:How High The Moon - dunno the players yet but i do know that i love their playing! organ,sax & guitar are a wonderful combination. what a lovely way to start your disc Jim T2:Louis of course. dunno the name of Mr.Cheesecake T3:i'm a salsero guy so this is a nice track. something from the FANIA All-Stars maybe? T4:my first impression was Rollins but by the end of the track i lost that feeling. enjoyed the bass player a lot T5:Gary Foster maybe? this is very enjoyable T6:nice and reminds me something from the Ellington bands T7:lovely tune and i don't remember the name. well, i think i'm familiar with song as i managed to hum some parts T8:I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good As I Don't Know The Singer) T9:i started to dance listening to this one. very very cool T10:MY FAVORITE OF DISC I!!! Jones/Lewis maybe?? i gotta have this T11:Hi-Fly on vibes. billions of thanks Jim Walt Dickerson maybe? T12:another lovely song and i enjoyed the piano and sax players T13:i haven't decided yet if this is good or no... T14:NMCOT T15:yeah...organ & sax once again..this seems familiar to me but.... T16:dunno the singer T17:For All We Know with a nice piano intro...dunno the singer once again... anyway, as expected, you did a lovely disc Jim Marcus

Martin, count me in! Marcus

i'm amazed with this movie too Marcus
