"Moodsville II" 11/26 Night Lights now archived

[ghost of miles]

On this edition of Night Lights it's "Moodsville 2," a followup to our October program about Prestige Records' early-1960s series that was a sort of "jazz-ballads-for-thinking-lovers" concept. This show features albums from vibraphonist Lem Winchester, a policeman-turned-musician who died in a tragic gun accident shortly after recording his Moodsville album; organist/pianist Shirley Scott, trumpeter Clark Terry, and tenor saxophonist Lucky Thompson. The program is now

archived.

Thanks right back at you, Marcello. I have the Hawkins on CD, but not the Wess. At some point I'll probably do a "Moodsville III," since there were so many titles in the series.
