They have found a home already.

Just finished "Daredevil--Born Again" Season 2. Nice, wishful-thinking-to-the-situation-now ending.

“Symphonic Jobim” Orquestra Sinfônica do Estado de São Paulo under the baton of conductor Roberto Minczuk Adventure Muisc 2 cd set, disc 1

On to something very different, Yusef Lateef “1984” Impulse Japan cd Drums – James Black Bass - Reggie Workman Piano – Mike Nock Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Oboe – Yusef Latee

Starting off.stuffy morning re-playng this Jazz Oracle gem. So much “Bix” with no Bix present. A real snapshot of his early influence. Red Nichols “Red Nichols On Edison: Recorded in New York 1924-1927” Jazz Oracle cd

That's true. I may put it up for sale in the US.

Going way back in time. . . Red Nichols “Red Nichols On Edison: Recorded in New York 1924-1927” Jazz Oracle cd

Big bad thunderstorm at about 1 a.m. and I was up with an upset dog for a while. No rain now, a bit warmer, hopefully it will be a nice day. Starting off with J.J. Johnson “Origin–The Savoy Sessions” Savoy Jazz cd. I’m a fan of Savoy material. Important ealy bebop.

Yes.

Kurt Elling "1619 Broadway – The Brill Building Project" Concord cd

Another Harrell by the same quintet, Tom Harrell “Roman Nights” on High Note cd Nine Harrell originals, some fiery playing and mellow moments.

Tom Harrell "Number Five" High Note cd The fifth High Note release of this excellent quintet!

“Chick Corea & Origin A Week at the Blue Note” disc 1

Staring off with “Black Art Jazz Collective: Presented By The Side Door Jazz Club.” Quite a band!

I agree. Today the mail came. And with it a second package from The Lost Recordings with the Coltrane and the Getz Zardi's UHQCD sets. I think my second order was not canceled as it was said to be. Sigh. Worse problems are possible!

“Stan Getz at Zardi’s” The Lost Recordings 2 UHQCD set, UHQCD 2 Great sound, great playing. It just amazes me how inventive Stan can be, how masterful his bebop is and also how swinging his flow is, and how beautiful the sound he produces.

“Stan Getz at Zardi’s” The Lost Recordings 2 UHQCD set, UHQCD 2 Great sound, great playing.

Eddie Bert “Kaleidoscope” Fresh Sound cd Reissues mostly Discovery sides, recorded before Discovery was sold to Savoy and before Bert recorded for Savoy. Pretty neat stuff, most of which have Duke Jordan on piano and many of which have Sal Salvador on guitar, and one of which is the very first recording of drummer Joe Morello.

Miles Davis “Filles De Kilimanjaro” Mobile Fidelity Lab SACD This album found at the local library shifted my listening world back in '72.

Another cool morning. Going to hit 50 today. Good day to work outside. Starting off with Yes, Tales from Topographic Oceans, Super Deluxe Edition disc 7. This disc features “Single Edits” made by Steven Wilson that I find quite interesting.

Bert played with Mingus which made me seek out a Mingus disc, and chose this one for the great band with Charles McPherson and Bobby Jones. Charles Mingus “Live in Rotterdam 1970” Crossroads cd Great stereo sound!

I’m listening to Eddie Bert “Musician of the Year.” The sort of “house trio” of Hank Jones, Wendall Marshall and Kenny Clarke is always great support. As the cover subtly suggests, there is overdubbing of additional Bert trombone on tracks, which was a novel thing in 1955 (the title comes from the fact that Bert was so awarded by Metronome magazine that year). Eddie Bert “Musician of the Year” Savoy Denon cd

Miles Davis Bootleg Series Vol. 6 “The Final Tour” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 edition, disc 1 A Paris 1960 concert. Excellent sound on this set.

Joel Ross “The Parable of the Poet” Blue Note cd I find Ross a very intriguing writer, arranger and player. This one has a great ensemble: Ross on vibes with Immanuel Wilkins on alto saxophone, Maria Grand on tenor saxophone, Marquis Hill on trumpet, Kalia Vandever on trombone, Sean Mason on piano, Rick Rosato on bass & Craig Weinrib on drums.
