Ah, the cd version is finally out and on deck. . . and worth the wait. (I did not go for the RSD vinyl).

The Blu-Spec CD2

Benedetti, Parker, Roach, Three Deuces 1948

Toni Harper with the Oscar Peterson Quartet

SHM-CD

An old favorite I've neglected too long. Great playing and sound and wonderful music!

Disc 6 of the James P. Johnson Mosaic set.

BASS!

This woman is an awesome pianist and singer.

I think they may have made a mistake outsourcing their shipping. It really was never the same after that. But I'm patient and I've always eventually gotten what I ordered, and I love their products.

The only baseball game I ever really remember going to was to Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia in the mid-sixties, probably '64 would be my guess, I was 9 and it was the only time my Dad ever took me to a sporting event (my father was a busy minister then and not into sports. . . probably explains why I'm not as well). I saw Willie Mays hit a home run against the Phillies. That's really all I remember, he was a big deal and I saw him hit a home run. I'm going to have to dig out the Goodman set and listen . . . there's gold on those discs.

Great! I can skip that one!

Nice that Fresh Sound reissued this. An excellent trio session (plus extra material). Legge was with Dizzy for a while, did a session or two with Mingus. . . he deserved a longer career and wider recognition.

The SHM-CD

Lucy Reed with Bill Evans, 1955.
