“Bill Evans - Further Ahead: Live in Finland 1964-1969” Elemental Music 2 cd set, disc 2 [IMG]450×450 32.4 KB Bill with Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell

Charles Mingus “The Clown” Atlantic/Analogue Productions SACD An excellent sounding edition of this fantastic album. I love all the work this group did. . .the front line is just glorious.

Going to be a wet, slightly soggy day. Getting some listening in before I have to get ready to go to a public gathering in Mentor with my wife and a few neighbors. Supposed to be a bit rainy, hope we can avoid a lot of the rain. I wanted to start off with the second disc of this set. . . but it won't load in the transport. Sigh. I'll try again in another transport later. "Bill Evans - Further Ahead: Live in Finland 1964-1969" Elemental Music 2 cd set So on to Joel Ross "The Parable of the Poet," Blue Note cd. I've been wanting to revisit this excellent disc for a while.

“The Unheard And Seldom Heard Ellington - Vol. 2” Blu-Disc T-1003 LP All test pressing sides but one which was an ARC disc for theaters only (not sold in stores). Sound is surprisingly good. I bought this about 7 years ago and haven’t listened to it much. Mostly small group sides, 1933-1941

I gave this disc its probably fourth SpinClean cleaning and it does sound cleaner. Wish this were reissued on cd! “Helen Sings, Teddy Swings” Helen Merrill with Teddy Wilson Trio, Catalyst Records LP Piano – Teddy Wilson Bass – Kunimitsu Inaba or Larry Ridley Drums – Lenny McB

Now Yesterday I played the stereo disc in this set, now onto the mono original release. I think I prefer the mono by a hair–fantastic music. Miles Davis “Milestones” Sony Blu-Spec CD2, stereo and mono 2 cd set

I don't know. For the most part I don't read liner notes any longer and so don't know if they explain it.

Yes. A recreation of the "Belonging" album.

Branford Marsalis “Belonging” Blue Note cd Not sure this Jarrett album needed to be “re-done” but this is a pleasant enough cd. 300×300 21.8 KB

I ordered those three from Resonance Records themselves, hopefully I'll get them soon.

Starting off with a great 2 cd set from 2023 that sort of got lost in the shelves. Brian Blade “Lifecycles, Vols. 1-2: Now! and Forever More Honoring Bobby Hutcherson” Brian Blade - drums and background vocals Rogerio Boccato - percussion Jon Cowherd - piano, wurlitzer and background vocals Monte Croft - vibraphone, marimba and lead vocals John Hart - guitar Myron Walden - flute, tenor and alto saxophone and bass clarinet Doug Weiss - bass This is a wonderful tribute to “Now!” and other Bobby Hutcherson musics. And great engineering as well.
