Sorry to report that our friend Claude, one of the authorities on all things Kenny Dorham, has left us about a month ago.

Yes, a classic! Run about MAL Get Happy with the Randy Weston Trio Kenny Dorham – Trompeta Toccata

"Wait Master, it might be dangerous...You go first!" Jorge Ben – Fôrça Bruta McCoy Tyner – Fly With The Wind Big John Patton – Oh Baby!

Billie Holiday – At Monterey 1958 Zoot! (Riverside/Victor)

Discovered at the time of Magnolia in the late 90s and it has been a favorite record ever since. I reckon knowing very little about the rest of her discography. I was lucky to attend her concert sometime in 2008 in a small, almost intimate venue in Glasgow. NP: Joe Henderson - Page One

Billy Harper Quintet in Europe Randy Weston - Jazz à la Bohemia Byard Lancaster – Soul Unity

Love the entire session (Sentimental and Just You/All the Things ending !!). One day I guess I will purchase the Mosaic set!

Merci pour l'univers musical !

Thank you for the music, Poppa Lou! I was very fortunate to catch him live back in 2008 (Aug 21st) with Jazzmobile. I was a bit late and a bit lost in the middle of Co-op City when a police officer on a segway drove straight at me shouting "Are you here for the Jazz thing? ". A lovely evening.
