Feeling a little funky this cold morning and wanting to wake up a bit more. . . . Starting off with Joshua Redman “Freedom in the Groove” on Warner Bros. cd. Hard for me to believe that it has been almost 30 years since this came out. . . I can remember buying it at Tower Records Austin. Joshua Redman – tenor, soprano & alto saxophone Peter Bernstein – electric guitar Peter Martin – piano Chris Thomas – acoustic bass Brian Blade – drums

Word John. Those were the days. Yes they were. Those were the days.

“Eddie Condon Town Hall Concerts Vol. 2” Jazzology 2 cd set, disc 1 Love the tribute to Fats Waller episode. Early jazz and Chicago Style jazz are comfort musical “food” for me. . . I’m leaning into that lately, need some comfort.

Emily Remler “East to Wes” Concord cd. One of her best. Heck all the Concord are great.

They just released a 2 cd Ike Quebec reissue set, just saying. (Not to mention a current Lloyd studio date on 2 cds).

“Ben Pollack Volume 2,” Jazz Oracle cd Ben’s groups work always lifts my mood.

If you don't know, you're lucky. i live in the belt buckle of the Ohio snow belt.

Well, she just won't watch superhero stuff, or science fiction stuff, or. . . most of the stuff I'd really like to watch. But after ten years living together I'm quite used to it.

Shoveled and cleared the cars from 6” of snow we’ve gotten in the last 36 hours or so. Whew. Ran some necessary errands and finally have an hour or so to listen. Starting off with disc 4 of this set for the second time before moving on to the next disc. This set is something else. Bob Dylan “Through The Open Window (The Bootleg Series Vol. 18 1956-1963)” 8 cd edition 4 hosted at ImgBB

Hoping to quiet the storm. I have always liked this one.

After reading listeners’ impressions about it I’m re-listening to disc 2, the mono mix. I must admit it sounds really good and has a certain “punch” that differs from that of the stereo. Jimi Hendrix “Bold as Love” Experience Hendrix 5 disc box set, disc 2 I feel a little bit like a teenager again listening to my Barclay LP.

First snow of the season (surprised it took this long) and 28 degrees. We got just an inch or less. We have an important appointment so as much as we’d love to hunker down in the hacienda we have to go out and brave the roads. Starting off with a favorite piano trio album before bundling up and clearing the deck, stairs and car. Keigh Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette “Tokyo '96” ECM cd

Personally I am really enjoying it. Covers don't matter much to me, and I actually like the dragon Jimi drew as a kid and understand why it was used (The original cover is reproduced in large format within). The original stereo mix presented here is possibly in error--it is not a new one by Grundman but from 2010 with possibly a little tweaking. That said it sounds really good. I have had the mono mix before, it is very interesting to me. And the newly released bits and pieces are very interesting to me, and sound GREAT. There was no way I was not going to get this, and I'm glad I did pre-order it. I find it interesting that the sets are numbered and I got #00420. If you stream (I don't) you should be able to preview it.

Kai Winding (featuring Kenny Burrell) Soul Surfing' Verve stereo LP

I think I have enough time to listen to all of this disc. . . which I have been wanting to do since Friday. . .this is the beginning of the real meat of this box set, the alternate material. Wow. Sounds great. The Jimi Hendrix Experience “Bold as Love” 4 cd, 1 blu-ray box set, disc 3

Sonny Fortune “A Better Understanding” Blue Note cd IMG500×500 26.1 KB And then a trip back to a simpler (poorer for most) time, I have always liked this 3 cd set of Eddie South transcriptions. “Eddie South Recorded in Hollywood 1933” Jazz Oracle 3 cd set, disc 1

The only purchases I have made since tariff-times have had flat fees charged; one I received with no further charges, the other is a pre-order not yet shipped.

A cold rainy morning. Finally got pain management for Lucy handled and she’s back to sleep. Should be able to get a listen to a disc in! Starting off with Bob Dylan “Through the Open Window” disc 4 for the second time.

Eliane Elias “Cross Currents” Denon cd Ms Elias here in her third Denon release with a great cast . . . predominantly trio and showing solid jazz chops.

Wallace Roney “Verses” Muse cd Roney’s first as a leader from 1987. What a band! 300×300 8.83 KB
