The Boss - Jimmy Smith - Verve label

Recorded live at Paschal's La Carousel in Atlanta Ga.

I love Smith's live albums because of the energy in the room. Great!

Earlier, The Ray Charles Story - Vol. I recorded in 1962 - Atlantic label.

Listening to two I purchased today.

Feeling Free - Barney Kessel (Contemporary Green/Gold label)

The Wonderful World of Jazz - John Lewis (Atlantic Red/Purple label)

I've never seen either of these albums before. The Kessel album has Bobby Hutcherson and Elvin Jones on it and it's marvelous. Elvin in particular is in high form.

Jack Teagarden - Pee Wee Russell - Archive of Jazz Vol 16 - BYG label.

Cover notes in French, Alain Gerber.

Side 1 is Jack Teagarden's Big Eight which includes an excellent version of one of my favourites, "St James Infirmary.

Side 2 is Pee Wee Russell's Rhythm Makers and it has a very nice take on another of my favourites, "There'll Be Some Changes Made."

Pee Wee and "T". A two-fer. Love it. :cool:

Sly and the Family Stone: Anthology

Good listening, but I have to say that I never bought into the whole thing about Sly being a seer/prophet/explainer of his time, etc. The man wrote some good songs for a few years, and arranged and presented them on record in a unique way. I give him full credit for that, but I just can't buy into a lot of what's been written about him. As far as I know, Greil Marcus started all of that. I never bought into Greil Marcus either. To my mind, there's no such thing as a hip academic.
