Chico Buarque “Songbook, Vol. 4” Lumiar Records cd A great sereis of Songbooks.

Goes well with the way too early morning darkness. Ricardo Grilli “If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler” Another Grilli. . .he plays well.

Over the years I've become more and more a Dylan fan and I like the later years a lot more than many seem to.

Ricardo Grilli “1962” Ricardo Grilli is quite a guitarist! with Mark Turner, Kevin Hays, Joe Martin and Eric Harland

Another meaty tenor sound to warm the early morning air. Sonny Rollins “The Bridge” Classic Records cd

42 degrees. I need some warm sound, Dexter Gordon “Daddy Plays His Horn” Bethlehem/Solid Records Japan cd Meaty swing from Dexter with walking Leroy Vinegar on bass propelling him along.

I don't know what further info you need. I did not get the box, but I did get all the musical content, four UHQCD lp facsimile cds from Japan of the four lps and bonus tracks, and the two disc SHM-CD set of the unreleased material, all I don't have is the book. The mastering is VERY GOOD. The music is. .. well it depends how you feel about Blossom and how you feel about 'sixties jazzy singers doing current pop tunes. If that's your thing, you'll love this box. I really like Blossom and most of this works for me, some tracks I'm not crazy about.

Now disc 9

Bob Dylan “The Bootleg Series Vol. 12: The Cutting Edge 1965–1966” disc 14

Clora Bryant

Something different. . . . Each of the soloists is expertly framed by the arranger. Duke Ellington’s Spacemen “The Cosmic Scene” Columbia mono LP

I’m awake now! Jeff Williams Quartet “Road Tales: Live at the London Jazz Fesitval” Jeff Williams - drums John O’Gallagher - alto saxophone Josh Arcoleo - tenor saxophone Sam Lasserson - double bass Recorded live at London Jazz Festival at Pizza Express Jazz Club (25 November 2018)

Starting off on disc 1 of this one, as disc 2 was still in the player from last evening. This year’s SFJazz Collective had a funkier yet still swinging vibe. Their “original compositions” are fun to listen to as are their Jackson interpretations. SFJazz Collective “The Music of Michael Jackson and Original Compositions” disc 2

I was not a big Freddie Hubbard fan really until this century, maybe even the 2010s. But I've learned to really dig all his CTI recordings. And I agree . . . that Milt CTI just goes for the gold and it's a real experience every time I spin it. We're all different.

Jason Palmer “City of Poets” Whirlwind Records cd Cédric Hanriot - piano Jason Palmer - trumpet Donny McCaslin - tenor saxophone Michael Janisch - double & electric bass Clarence Penn - drums Recorded live at the Pizza Express Jazz Club September 23, 2014, London

Dark Winds, Season 2, AMC

Marcus Roberts “Blues for the New Millenium” Columbia cd It now IS that new millenium. . . and I’ve had the blues. Managing them well though. This is giving me memories of my 'nineties Austin life with my late first wife and our pets. For a spell there life was as good as it gets at home. I was listening to a lot of “Chicago Style” jazz at the time based on the old New Orleans jazz and blues.

Possibly, probably, but none that are in the Private Collection.

Marcus Roberts Trio “Time and Circumstance” Columbia cd Haven’t spun this one in a few years. Such an amazing pianist. I vividly remember seeing him perform at Antone’s in Austin. Piano master!
