Cassandra Wilson “She Who Weeps” Winter & Winter cd

Chico Buarque “Sinal Fechado” cd It’s cold outside. Chico’s Brazilian music will help warm us up. The system is sounding fantastic this morning.

Joshua Redman “Where are we Now” Blue Note cd Featuring sensual singer Gabrielle Cavassa. Not a bad thing. Followed by "Milt Jackson / Ray Brown Jam" Pablo cd

No, when the original series was on I was not watching TV and I find now that I really don't enjoy watching TV of that vintage that much. I've watched all of this new series though and really enjoyed it. Glad there are more seasons to come.

Thanks!

Sun Ra and his Intergalactic Research Arkestra – Paradiso Amsterdam 1970 Nice sound. I was excited for this release. . . but. . .I think my tastes have shifted away from this sort of Ra “jazz.” It’s seeming more like rock or pop music to me these days. . . the appeal has waned over the years.

And another master trombonist recorded about 7 years beforehand. “Jack Teagarden” Verve LP Killer bands.

J & K “StoneBone” RSD reissue vinyl A&M/CTI JJ Johnson and Kai Winding in a funky setting. Benson is really good here.

Lucy, my brother Lester and I last night.

“Introducing Kenny Cox and the Contemporary Jazz Quintet” Blue Note reissue LP

Joe Farnsworth “In What Direction Are You Headed?” Smoke Sessions cd Includes a rendition of a song I love, Donny Hathaway’s “Someday we’ll all be Free”

No, that's a Wilkins date with a piano-bass-drums trio behind him.

Tom Harrell “Roman Nights” High Note cd A working band, and that is heard here in a tightness and confidence.

It's great. As are his previous.

A new Joel Ross album, with the bonus of Immanuel Wilkins on board! Exciting for me as these are two of my favorite musicians of this decade. Joel Ross, “Nublues” Blue Note cd 501×501 17.8 KB A great version of Coltrane’s “Equinox” here.

You're going to enjoy it! I got mine from ebay on November 18 and it's great music in great sound.

Sony Blu-Spec CD2 2023

Jelly-Roll Morton “Volume 1 1923-1929 The Alternative Takes In Chronological Order” Neatwork cd I skipped the noisiest tracks. I’ve not spun Jelly Roll in some time. . . really enjoying these takes. From left to right, “Common Sence” Ross, Albertine Pickins, Ferd “Jelly Roll” Morton, Ada “Bricktop” Smith, Eddie Rucker, Mabel Watts.

Yes. I've also picked up their Mozart string quartet recordings, and ordered the Beethoven Septet recordings. I like the way they interpret and play.

970×970 343 KB Miguel Atwood Ferguson - Les Jardins Mystiques Volume 1, cd 1 This is interesting. . . and very well-recorded.

Didn’t get much chance to listen yesterday. This morning I’m squeezing in some listening. After re-listening to the second half of the Benny Goodman Chronogical Classics cd I spun yesterday (that Quartet and Quintet material for Columbia was just fantastic with Red Norvo, Teddy Wilson, Morey Feld and in the Quintet the amazing Slam Stewart–and the Columbia engineering was just innovative and wonderful) I am now spinning Barylli Quartet “Mozart String Quartets” Japan UHQCD. An additional viola does a lot for this music. Sound is as good as the Beethoven recordings also reissued this year on UHQCD.

Man I love this piece. When I hear it I remember how much joy it brought my Dad for decades. I'll never stop giving it spins.

Then there's Elemental Music, and though the cds are not yet listed I'm pretty sure they will be. https://www.elemental-music.com/rsd-2024/4805-mal-waldron-steve-lacy-the-mighty-warriors-live-in-antwerp--8435395503911.html
