Miles Davis & John Coltrane “The Final Tour Copenhagen March 24 1960” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 Japan 2023 This tour was fascinating night by night.

“Thelonious Monk/Sonny Rollins” Prestige Rudy Van Gelder Remasters cd Japan So much to discover every time listening to this music. Sonny and Monk seeming to understand the music and its spirit so well together, simultaneously. The sound on these Concord Rudy Van Gelder Remasters I find very good, especially the mono recordings.

Fabiano Do Nascimento “Preludio” What an event each of his cds is. What a masterful player and builder of atmosphere.

Good news!

Miles Davis “Nefertiti” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 2023

It would be a better show were it not on network TV. My wife liked it though, and it beats her usual HGTV stuff to watch with her.

Rahsaan Roland Kirk “The Return of the 5000 lb Man” Warner Bros. Japan cd I think this is the last album recorded by RRK before his stroke. It’s a fascinating album with his brilliant mix of technical supremacy, black music history, and his verve and humor.

Miles Davis "Milestones" Sony Blu-Spec CD2 two cd set (stereo disc and mono disc). I'm listening to the stereo, first time in a long time (generally chose mono before, which I had in better editions). Sound is very nice! I love these performances; this is an often overlooked Miles masterpiece. And. . . "The Man in the Green Shirt" as the song title from Weather Report goes.

Miles Davis “Water Babies” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 Japan 2023 Music that has been with me since 1976. I keep finding bits to discover and enjoy in these selections. One bonus cut on this disc, indicating it is a reissue of the US cd release mastering. I love this Corky McCoy cover. When I was a kid in Philadelphia one of our neighborhood Dads would open up the fire hydrant every few weeks in the summer and we would frolic in the street until the City would come and turn it off. Sometimes I was the kid in clothes watching the fun unhappily as I was not allowed to participate. . . depended which parent was home.

My system has never sounded better, and I just keep wanting to spin disc after disc! Right now Miles Davis “Directions” Blu-Spec CD2 Sony Japan 2023, disc 1

Yes, it's as compelling audibly as that famous pair of Johnny Griffin's pants was visually.
