  1. Starting off a muggy morning with a classic that sounds so good. Miles Davis “Kind of Blue” Mobile Fidelity SACD
  2. Wow, this disc is sounding phenomenal today–deep and resonant sound! From 1958, when stereo Capitol records were produced with excellent sound. “The Ballad Style of Stan Kenton” Capitol cd
  3. I too have dropped pounds and now the T-Shirts I have of this series are bigger than necessary! Too bad, but not too bad.
  4. Moving on to some Mingus I have not heard in a long time. Mingus was something else! “CHARLES MINGUS IN PARIS – The COMPLETE AMERICA SESSION” 2 cd set disc 1
  5. Oh my it finally cooled down. Still dark, quiet, still. Pulled this from the shelves, a nice way to start the day. MTB “Solid Jackson” Criss Cross cd Brad Mehldau (P) Mark Turner (Ts) Peter Bernstein (G) Larry Grenadier (B) Bill Stewart (D) 500×500 31.2 KB followed by Shirley Scott “One for Me” Strata East cd Shirley with Harold Vick and Billy Higgins. From 1975. Very nice reissue! Nice dynamics. 500×500 38.6 KB Original cover:
  6. On to another disc from the Grateful Dead “Enjoying the Ride” 60th Anniversary box set, Capital Centre, Landover MD (3/17/93) disc 2
  7. This night was a hot one! Didn’t sleep as well as I’d like but 's alright. Starting off with a disc I’ve neglected long enough, Horace Tapscott “Dark Tree,” the second disc.
  8. With my wife I've been re-watching (her case, for the first time these seasons for me) Project Runway Seasons 1 through 4 so far. By myself, started the new season of Star Trek: Strange Worlds.
  9. Sun Ra “Nuits de la Fondation Maeght” Strut Records 4 cd set, disc 2
  10. On to another disc from the Grateful Dead “Enjoying the Ride” 60th Anniversary box set, Capital Centre, Landover MD (3/17/93) disc 1
  11. Warm and humid morning after some early morning rain. Feeling a bit sticky and sad. Miss my little dachshund audio companion some mornings more than others. Starting off with a new arrival, the King Jazz CTI “Alltime Collection” George Benson/Joe Farrell “Benson & Farrell” CTI Japan cd. A smooth selection to ease into the day.
  12. I like the work with his brother and with Bu and am glad he became a success. My youngest brother was playing trumpet in band when he broke out onto the radio and he was inspired to improve and keep playing and became (with a little help from my record collection) a jazz fan and still keeps his lip in some shape to this day--and Chuck and the Blackbyrds are largely responsible.
  13. Who knows. They put it out so they haven't orphaned it at least. Most who would want it have had it for over a decade!
  14. I need to feel that relaxed vibe. . . . “Songbook: Vinicius de Moraes - Vol. 2” Lumiar Records cd
  15. “Johnny Hodges, Billy Strayhorn and the Orchestra” Verve/Analogue Productions SACD
  16. Kenny Burrell “On View at the Five Spot” 24 Bit by RVG Blue Note Japan lp facsimile cd. Although the new SHM-SACD and cd versions of this sound fantastic, I still really like the sound of this Japanese RVG cd.
  17. Joe Farrell “Penny Arcade” CTI King Jazz cd Stevie Wonder’s “Too High” is probably the highlight. Joe Farrell – tenor and soprano sax, flute, piccolo Herbie Hancock – piano Joe Beck – guitar Steve Gadd- drums Herb Bushler – bass Don Alias – conga I reset the entire system. . . and it isn’t quite all it can be yet. . . later today it will be firing on all cylinders.
  18. Geri Allen & Timeline “LIVE”
  19. Listening to the bonus material on this Grateful Dead “Blues for Allah” cd. This won’t be in the upcoming 3 cd 50th Anniversary edition. Fun jams. . . .
  20. Jason Moran “All Rise: A Joyful Elegy for Fats Waller” Blue Note cd Not your grandfather’s Fats Waller! Nicely recorded. Bass – Tarus Mateen Drums – Nasheet Waits Drums, Vocals – Charles Haynes Piano, Electric Piano – Jason Moran Producer – Don Was, Meshell Ndegeocello Saxophone – Steve Lehman Trombone – Josh Roseman Trumpet, Vocals – Leron Thomas Vocals – Meshell Ndegeocello
  21. Joe Farrell “Canned Funk” CTI Supreme King Jazz Japan cd Bass – Herb Bushler Congas, Percussion – Ray Mantilla Drums – Jim Madison Guitar – Joe Beck Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Baritone Saxophone, Flute – Joe Farrell Recorded at Van Gelder Studios Recorded November, December, 1974
  22. Mark Masters Ensemble"Porgy and Bess Redefined" Capri cd 400×400 23 KB
  23. Malo “Evolution” Warner Bros. LP The third LP of Carlos’ broter Jorge Santana’s band. I stumbled across their first LP about 1973 and bought the first two, then this third one, then the others. I like this band!
