Wanted to go way back. Some of my eldest family members had Bunny Berigan discs to spin and I associate his music with relatives gathered for fun and food. Bunny Berigan “1938” Chronogical Classics cd 300×298 11.5 KB I’m including a photo of my great-uncle (always just “Uncle”) Arvin “Suds” Selquist, Berigan fan and perpetual prankster, one fine human.

I read some remarks about this release elsewhere and hadn’t heard it in a LONG time so decided to spin this Atlantic cd edition: Yes “Tormato”

Woke up early and couldn’t go back to sleep so I’ve decided to spin a disc after watching a little bit from the DVR on headphones.. I’ve chosen Charles Lloyd Trio “Ocean” on Blue Note cd. A good late night/early morning vibe. Sounding so good on the system as it warms up!

Yes, I know, but I wasn't discussing this so was confused. Thanks.

Jonathan Blake “My Life Matters” Blue Note cd Different from this great drummer’s last release, but I’m enjoying it.

Indeed and Collectors' Choice released a 3 cd set of V-Disks so they are out there in okay sound.

I've read that none of the Ellington V-Disks were recordings made for V-Disk, they were all other recordings put onto V-Disk. I think that puts them outside the scope of this set. Yes, I found this page. https://ellingtonweb.ca/Hostedpages/DoojiCollection/DoojiCollection-VDiscs.htm The following I found very interesting: "[George T.] Simon, a V-disc producer, asked Duke if he would let the band make V-discs. Duke suggested he 'ask some of the guys'. 'And so I went over to Harry Carney and Lawrence Brown, whom I'd known for years, and asked them. Their reply in essence: 'George, if you are asking us to do this for free as a personal favor for you, of course we'll do it. But if you are asking us to do it for the Army, forget it - not when you consider the way they have been treating our people.'"

Well when you have a hit "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition" you would HAVE to make a V-Disk for the troops.

I think it's possible that all the Goodman V-Disks were reissues of commercial recordings (as the Ellington, Armstrong, Teagarden et al were I believe, for example). I think Mosaic is only reissuing the selections that were originally recorded for V-Disk.

Stan Getz “Sweet Rain” Verve cd A killer session with Chick Corea, Ron Carter and Grady Tate. On my system it sounds best with the “Phase” inverted on the DAC. 300×297 5.3 KB Followed by Susannah McCorkle “Hearts and Minds” Concord cd I’m really enjoying revisiting McCorkle recordings. This was her last release. Not sure what teaser disc you mean but yes, I have the first and third sets (and a Mosaic one as well). Great music.

I'll pre-order when I can.

There is this: https://www.discogs.com/master/1682674-Paul-Desmond-The-Complete-RCA-Albums-Collection And https://www.discogs.com/release/14487158-Paul-Desmond-The-Complete-RCA-Victor-Recordings-1961-1965 And https://www.discogs.com/release/3257043-Paul-Desmond-Featuring-Jim-Hall-The-Complete-Paul-Desmond-RCA-Victor-Recordings-Featuring-Jim-Hall

She is pretty mainstream, a bit more sedate at times than I think I would like, but her writing is interesting and she can play, hires good support. Now On to disc 3 of this excellent new reissue of two Bill Evans albums and many alternates/outtakes. “Haunted Heart: The Legendary Riverside Studio Recordings”

A tiny bit warmer this morning. It’s the time of year when a tiny bit is a bit bigger than months previous. Starting off the day with “Roxy Coss” self-titled, self-released cd This is my second copy as my first copy had a bad skip in the final track, and a visible scuff. So far this copy is perfectly fine; I really do like the music of Ms Coss.

Going further with Bill Evans, always a nice calming thing. This compilation has always impressed me. Bill Evans “Piano Player” Sony Blu-Spec CD2

A bit warmer this morning. Welcome. Still and silent. . . the weekend mornings are quieter as the few neighbors sleep in. Starting off with the interesting box set released yesterday of two Bill Evans Trio (LaFaro and Motian edition) studio LPs released with a ton of alternates and outtakes. In excellent sound. “Haunted Heart: The Legendary Riverside Studio Recordings” Craft/Riverside 3 cd set, discs 1 and 2

Married At First Sight, this season in Austin. Pluribus, have watched the first two episodes so far.

“Douglas Willams 1928-1930, recorded in Memphis, Tennessee” Jazz Oracle cd All Victor sides. Fun stuff.

Here are a few of my favorite trios: Money Jungle Piano in the Foreground Happy Moods Changeless Bud Powell in Paris Duke Ellington Presents the Dollar Brand Trio Explorations Eliane Elias plays Live

Eliane Elias "Plays Live" Blue Note cd My copy of this has been missing for a while. I finally found it mixed in with some of Lucinda's cds. One of my favorite of Eliane's releases (I think I have them all!)

Brr. It’s cold out there. Inside it’s nice. Starting off with another great piano trio recording on Muzak Japan cd. Del Ferro on piano, keyboard, and Fender Rhodes, Andre Vasconcellos on acoustic and electric bass, and Marcio Bahia on drums. Mike Del Ferro “Made In Brazil” Samui International/Muzak Japan cd (My copy has a different cover for which I have not found an image).

Some great stuff in there.

I'm amazed at how much they improved the Black Lion material by Webster, Gordon, Griffin, Konitz. . .wow.

Tizian Jost Trio “United in the Big Blue” Enja/Muzak Japan lp facsimile HQCD I bought this one because it was way cheap and I really like the sound of Muzak mastering of cds . . . and it’s quite a nice piano trio date. 300×300 15.5 KB
