The cold is back and settled in. 12 degrees! About 2 inches of snow yesterday. Should just make it above freezing today. Ah well. It’s March in NE Ohio.
Starting off with Charles Mingus" The Clown" Analogue Productions SACD. “All those greens, all those yelllows, all those oranges. . . they weren’t quite as bright as they used to be.” I can relate!
Followed by this great sounding disc.

Tiziana Ghiglioni “A Lucio Battisti” Philology cd
I picked this up for 99 cents and it’s quite interesting. I had never heard this Italian singer before, but she sounds very nice here with great accompaniment.

Seeing that Blue Note Japan is reissuing these sessions as SACD in a few months I decided to spin this US compilation issue that sounds really good. I also have the Japanese 24 bit by RVG complete set and enjoy the sound on that one a lot.
Miles Davis “Take Off: The Complete Blue Note Albums” Blue Note 2 cd set, disc 2
I wanted to hear a version of "US Blues" and this dsic containing the original studio version is the first I encountered on the shelves.
Grateful Dead "From the Mars Hotel" Mobile Fidelity cd
Going to be real Spring weather today! Looking forward to some outdoor time.
Starting the day off with disc 5 of the John Coltrane box set "Interplay" . . . which reissues "Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane"
The authentic "Autobiography" music is great. I have that 3 cd set, and also any corresponding material (sans "reminiscences") on the Armstrong Decca All Stars set.
