Just back from a local protest event and surprisingly the rain (though forecast) went away and there were about 700 persons . . . really felt good to be in the midst of “like minds.” There were two instances of unsuccessful “agitation.” A great event. Re-listening to this one as it was still in the transport and . . . it’s really good. Tim Warfield :Spherical–Dedicated to Thelonious Sphere Monk" Criss Cross cd 300×300 31.6 KB

It seems to me a complete story: owned by stated original owner and then sold to Evidence. Glad that Mosaic had access to what "masters" there are.

A rainy morning. Doesn’t bode well for our outdoor event this afternoon but we’re going with fresh signs. One of my favorite “tribute” albums to Monk. The ringer original “Blue Hawk” is excellent. Tim Warfield :Spherical–Dedicated to Thelonious Sphere Monk" Criss Cross cd. This is where I first was impressed with Orrin Evans’ playing.

Thanks for that info.

Right. I believe Evidence at one time (still?) owned/owns/purchased Theresa Records.

A very 1962 (song choices) LP by Jack Teagarden for Verve, his last I think for the label. Great band! Okay LP. . . could have been grittier. Maybe the band wasn’t “lubricated” enough.

That's a good Szabo. Starting off a nice cool morning with some old time music from various bands Jack Purvis led or played lead trumpet within. Purvis was a great trumpeter influenced by Pops, and I confess that over the years I’ve come to enjoy the 'twenties/early 'thirties dance and pop music as odd sounding as it is today. “Jack Purvis Recorded in New York 1925-1935” Jazz Oracle 3 cd set, disc 1 Jazz Oracle is a great label–I have nearly every one of their releases.

I pulled out a few of this guitarist’s cds from the shelves as I was hankering to hear his work. Starting off with: Marty Grosz and Destiny’s Tots “Swing It!” Jazzology cd

I was looking for to spin Gil Scott Heron’s “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised” but its location is eluding me at this time. So. . . on to Disc 3 of the August 12, 1979 concert at Red Rock, from “Enjoying the Ride,” the Sixtieth Anniversary Grateful Dead box set released last month.

Bobby Hutcherson “Highway One” Columbia From this 2 cd set: “Highway One / Conception: The Gift Of Love / Un Poco Loco” BGO

Arturo O’Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra “Cuba: The Conversation Continues” Motema 2 cd set, disc 2 This one is a very well-recorded big band recording.

Wanted to hear more Coltrane after listening to his amazing performances on “Milestones” . . . John Coltrane “Fearless Leader” Prestige box set disc 5

Miles Davis “Milestones” Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab STEREO SACD This stereo SACD sounds so much better than any other stereo version of “Milestones” I’ve heard. And the music is among my favorite jazz of all time. Wow. Now I’m awake.

It was a hot night but it’s cooler this morning thank goodness. Starting off with an interesting cd that I haven’t heard in a while, Brazilian drummer (and Joyce’s husband) Tutty Moreno, “Forcas D’Alma” Sons de Bahia cd Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Clarinet – Nailor Proveta Bass – Rodolfo Stroeter Drum – Tutty Moreno Piano – André Mehmari Vocals, Guitar – Joyce Orchestral accompaniment on several tracks A nice jazz outing, hitting the right spot this morning.

I've never heard it, and I'm a Rouse (with and without Monk) fan. I pre-ordered the expanded cd.

I'm still thinking about "Dune: Prophecy" after watching the last of the special features this morning. That was a great show. Tried watching "Andor" because so many seem to sing its praises. Two episodes and I'm out, not for me. I'll probably soon rewatch the second half Of "Severance" season One before starting Two.
