Thanks! I’m the one with mildest symptoms which means I am running the house at the moment. But when everybody crashed on the sofa this afternoon I took some time off

The eldest finally eats a little and we even played together today. The wife is complaining more than she use to do so you know what that means 😜

😄 Improvement all round then, that's good

That's terrible. We were like that last year. One of the worst fortnights of my life, and it didn't go away really until months after.

This year we got the kids flu vaccinations (hardly essential at that age but I don't regret it) and we have escaped with no more than sore throats so far.

It’s awful indeed. Now the elder is getting better, the youngest situation gets worse

UK 1961 white label Mono, sounds great. One from my Dad’s collection. Griffin really goes for it. Not sure if he did a long stretch at the Five Spot, like Coltrane. Evidence is the stand out track, with Haynes going crazy under Griffin’s solo.

Followed by this great UK Fontana Kirk compilation. 

J C Moses with Kirk on Cabin in the sky. Wow, what a drummer. Shame he died so young.

For some reason this Wayne Shorter session has been off my radar for a very long time. It’s very, very good. Classic Shorter I’d say. 

[kh1958]

L. Subramaniam, Blossom (Crusaders)

Mel Powell All Stars, Jam Session at Carnegie Hall (Columbia)

[HutchFan]

Now on my turntable:

Like you, I first heard Kippie Moketsi through Ibrahim -- and Basil "Mannenberg" Coetzee too.  

I'm no expert on Cape Jazz, but I like Tshona very much.  You can give it a listen here:  https://as-shams-busy-bodies.bandcamp.com/album/tshona
