Most of my McLean is still in boxes. However, oddly Jackie's Bag (Liberty stereo) was mixed in with some stuff I brought up to Austin and was able to spin that one yesterday night. "Appointment in Ghana" is an amazing tune, and very forward-looking to his later '60s work. Considering the rest of the band (Miss Brooks, Kenny Drew, Blue Mitchell, A.T. and P.C.) and some of the contemporaneous gigs they were on, this is music that is light-years ahead.

Yep--I was listening to JACKIE'S BAG earlier today and making a mental note to include "Appointment" in the Night Lights tribute I'm planning for this coming Saturday.

WKCR just started their 42-hour memorial tribute to Jackie Mac about 45 minutes ago... already played a lot of marvelous music.
