  1. [IMG]600×536 94.8 KB I am really enjoying discs by this singer from the Netherlands. Josee Koning E Grupo “In Concert At Nick Vollebregt´s Café”
  2. The Willie Oteri Nice Alliance "Near the Edge" CBS France (Coming soon, Willie is living in Nice now). Dave Laczko "All I want for Christmas is an Echoplex" North Loop Central Records.
  3. “Tommy Flanagan Plays the Music of Harold Arlen” Inner City/Solid Records Japan cd
  4. Pascoal Meirelles Trio “Tom”
  5. My guess is yes. CD manufacturing has put 79 to 80 minutes (and in a few cases just over 80) onto cds for some time and most players from this century will have no problem with playback.
  6. Good news! A totally different type of release coming out in July: https://www.archeophone.com/catalogue/loren-mcmurray-moaninest-moan/
  7. “Cannonball In Europe” Capitol/Universal Japan SHM-CD
  8. My paternal grandparents. It is so surprising to me how much my sister resembles my grandmother Hazel and my Dad resembles his Dad William (he was a Jr. after all so it shouldn't be as surprising as it always is when I look at this).
  9. Well, I guess there was some sort of conglomerate Montreux licensing deal that was made with BMG enabled by some European laws and/or the nature of the festival performance contracts.
  10. Kenny Barron Quintet “Images” Sunnyside cd One of the first places I heard Mr. Harris on vibes. He’s a great player.
  11. Swing from '83 Milt Jackson Quartet “Used to Be Jackson, vol. 1” TDK/Solid Records Japan cd
  12. Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette “Bye Bye Blackbird” ECM Japan SHM-CD
  13. It's a bonafide site. I've ordered a number of times over the years. Two of their equipment racks, a few cables, a few cds. They can be a little "slow" but are a trust-worthy site.
  14. 599×591 73.9 KB Jack Teagarden, “This is Teagarden” Capitol/TOCJ 20bit lp facsimile cd It’s been too long since I spun some Jackson.
  15. That's pretty much my story too, 16 to 17 was a huge period of jazz discovery. I was listening to other genres as well til about 27 or so and then it was nearly all jazz all the time.
  16. Miles Davis “Someday My Prince Will Come” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 I’ll never tire of this.
  17. I think it was "Directions in Music" on Filles de Kiliminjaro.
  18. Well, there was authentic influence from Ravi Shankar et al, and yes religious/spiritual fascination for many in the culture during the whole decade of the 'sixties in the US. Miles did use sitar and tabla in 1969 and I think it was more for texture and to bring in "hip" instrumentation or introduce novel sounds. I was all in on Miles' "New Directions in Music" when "In Concert" was released and jumped right onto that and followed everything Miles released after that. For me MIles' music has always seemed a world of its own. Even as far back as the Prestige days there was something fundamentally unique about much of Miles' work. A good thing.
  19. I love sparkling water, what I had to get used to was "flavor" in the water. I find that the strawberry is the least offensive. Waterloo is often on sale here and is a lot cheaper than what I would rather afford, Italian sparkling water.
  20. Balakrishna and Sharma et al were playing with Miles as early as late 1969. I'm not sure how much Miles was directly influenced by Indian music or whether the influence came through rock incorporation of Indian instrumentation and forms.
  21. Been drinking a lot of these lately. From my old hometown, Austin.
  22. [IMG]600×600 32.7 KB “The Complete Freddie Hubbard Blue Note & Impulse 60’s Studio Sessions” Mosaic Records, disc IV
  23. I was hesitant about this one til I saw it was produced by Dori Caymmi.
