You know it took me some years to realize that the cover photo section is a slice of the top.

A little quietly as Lucinda is sleeping, though luckily in the downstairs bedroom where she can hardly hear the music when played quietly at all. Nat Pierce, “Kansas City Memories” Fresh Sound 2 cd set.

Basie-centric in many ways, but pretty as the focus.

Orquestra Popular De Camara,” Adventure Music cd Quite an adventurous listen with tablas, violin, cello, piano, guitar, some sax and flute and wordless vocals. Wow. The usual excellent sound from Adventure Music as well. 600×600 102 KB

I actually really like Wilkins here--but that relentless Cobham/Bruford like drumming--just hate it for this music.

Continuing with flute and guitar and the great engineering of Adventure Music. Toninho Horta & Nicola Stilo “Duets”

Harish Raghavan “Calls For Action” I so much want to love this album. It features two of my favorite current players (Joe Ross and Immanuel Wilkins) and it is very well-recorded. But the drumming just seems so wrong to me, throughout. Maybe it’s because I was once a drummer but. . . just spoils it for me, Followed by Ricardo Silveira & John Leftwich “Cosmos” A beautiful album featuring excellent flute from Hubert Laws, in wonderful Adventure Music sound.

I read this nearly three decades ago, and re-read it about fifteen years ago. I guess I'm due for a re-read soon enough, I may have to dig my copy out of storage next time I make an archaeological expedition into my unit. A great jazz book, as you say. Among the best.

This is a fantastic set I have had first on cd and then bought on LP five years ago. I love this music! Such variety, and all fun to listen to. Last month Dusty Groove in Chicago offered this LP set for about a third of what I paid for mine and I grabbed it. Turned out to be a previously unplayed mint set. I mailed it to my best friend in Texas, avant-garde and jazz trumpeter Dave Laczko and he’s really enjoying it so I thought I would join in. Now listening to sides G and H.

Grateful Dead "Here Comes Sunshine 1973" 17 cd box set, cd 3 and 4, Iowa.

I don't know how "quietly" it went when it was announced "Last Chance" in May. Sorry to see it go. I pre-ordered it and it's a great set.

Mario Adnet “Jobim Jazz” Adventure Music cd I love this music, and its sequel, “+Jobim Jazz.” And it has great sound. I always buy an Adventure Music cd with confidence–consistently great sound.

Harish Raghavan “In Tense” cd Revisiting this one. With enjoyment.

“Monk Big Band and Quartet in Concert” Columbia/High Density Tape Transfer cdr 600×600 113 KB This is an interesting version of this material. Here’s the source according to the “label” Recording Info: Transferred from a Columbia 4-track tape It’s the content of the original LP and only the original LP, but it includes the edits removed for the original LP. Sound is quite nice.
