The Complete Capitol Studio Recordings of Stan Kenton 1943-1947, disc III

Cal Tjader “Mambo Sangria” Fabulous Records cd Reissues two LPs: “Plugs In” and “Solar Heat”

Different strokes for different folks. I saw them twice, and never saw the tail-gating festival atmosphere and marketplace--I last saw them in '78 so that may have been too early for the "In the Dark" following changes. Nor when I saw them was there excessive tuning, distorted sound--in fact their sound was the purest and cleanest I heard in my rock band years. And those are not characteristics of the recordings I've collected either. I followed the Dead until Keith and Donna Godchaux left the band, and really like the last year or two of their tenure less than any of the music before. (That is about when I stopped following rock with real interest in general). But man there is some great Dead music . . . and lots of it.

Shelly Manne & His Men “Jazz from the Pacific Northwest” Reel to Real cd 2 From the Penthouse in Seattle. Shelly Manne – drums Monty Budwig – bass Hampton Hawes – piano Frank Strozier – alto saxophone Conte Candoli – trumpet Ruth Price – voice

I think many would be surprised how many may turn out to buy copies of never before officially released Remler. I see a lot of talk of her on and off the forums.

I have everything too except the previously unissued seven tracks. I pre-ordered.

I have about three hours of Remler boot material and it would be a great thing to have these in better shape.

Jack McDuff “Ain’t No Sunshine” Reel to Real cd 2 Sounds nice and dynamic on my system. Waking me up on this cool morning Sunday.

Yes, I got mine a few days ago. Sound is decent and the music is great. John Collins and Lee Young (Lee is more felt than heard often, but still glad he's there!)!

Shelly Manne & His Men “Jazz from the Pacific Northwest” Reel to Real cd 1 Two killer performances, one from the Monterey Jazz Festival, the other from the Penthouse in Seattle. Great bands.

Blue groovin’ this morning. Jack McDuff “Ain’t No Sunshine” Reel to Real cd 1

Dexter Gordon “Night Ballads - Montreal 1977” Uptown cd This one cost me a pretty penny but it was worth it. Recorded live at The Rising Sun in Montreal, November 9-12, 1977. Featuring the great saxophonist Dexter Gordon, pianist George Cables, bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Eddie Gladden.

The Complete Capitol Studio Recordings of Stan Kenton 1943-1947, disc II Revisiting this set with enjoyment. That studio at that time had such a rich sound for their releases.

Allen, those "Ellington in Order" volumes are not physical product. I myself have fewer issues listening to the Centennial material than it seems others do.

Theo Hill “Interstellar Adventures” Posi-Tone cd Hill’s second album with Rashaan Carter and the excellent drummer Rudy Royston.

Starting a cool morning off with another interesting session Tom Harrell participated in, with a sort of Spanish tinge of Weather Report like fusion, led by guitarist Torres.
