Louis Armstrong - Vol. 1: New Orleans Days (Decca). From 1950, the first Armstrong LP to be recorded for that format; previous LPs were collections of his singles.

Eddie Jefferson - Things Are Getting Better (Muse)
 

[Gheorghe]

First of all I must say, I´m not a Peterson-Fan like many others. My kind of jazz is more advanced, but I must admit I kept 3 albums that I like to listen to , sometimes:

Night Train, We Get Requests (I like them because they are not so overplayed, Peterson doesn´t dominate everything like he did later) , and

In Tune: I think this was somehow en vogue in the 70´s. It sold well and many people would fredonate "Sesame Street". Everything has that ´70´s touch, Bonnie Herman on the foto looks like the 1970 dream girl, the music is a mixture of ballads , slow bossas like Gentle Rain and Shadow of Your Smile.

The Singers Unlimited were great and the had great succes in those days, and Peterson who normally dominates everything, really fits into the whole stuff. I like to listen to this sometimes.

Tucker plays so well on the Eddie Jefferson LP above that I decided to give this one a spin:

Bobby Wellins ‘Dreams Are Free’ on UK Vortex (nothing to do with the Atlantic offshoot) from 1979 with a fine quartet featuring Pete Saberton. A gem and never released on CD !

The Beatles - Yesterday and Today (Capitol mono). I'm not a Beatles fan, particularly, but lately I've been thinking that I at least ought to have some of the Fab Four on my shelves - maybe Rubber Soul and/or Revolver. While in Nashville last week, I found this beautiful mono copy of Yesterday and Today. I was so ignorant about the band that I didn't know that this was a US-only album of tracks that Capitol cut from several British albums, including the ones I mentioned earlier. In any case, I'm enjoying the music and the record sounds great. It's about perfect for a casual Beatles listener like me. And no, there doesn't seem to be a "butcher" cover under the front cover slick.

Duke Jordan: Les Liaisons Dangereuses

[jeffcrom]

Jazz at the Philharmonic - Norgran Blues 1950 (Verve). Lester Young is good here, but for the most part this concert is kind of disappointing. It doesn't help that the audience goes wild whenever any musician plays anything the least bit repetitious.

I've never been a big fan of Johnny Griffin with Monk, but this has grown on me over time. Good to hear the live environment.

Randy Newman - Live (Reprise). As I understand it, this set of piano/vocal recordings from The Bitter End was released in desperation by Reprise when work stalled on the album that became Sail Away. Sail Away, when it finally came out, was worth waiting for - a minor masterpiece - but I've always like this intimate little record.

Eight more minutes of Randy Newman before bed - this 2017 45 RPM single: Putin / A Few Words in Defense of Our Country (Nonesuch)
