Miles at the Fillmore (Bootleg Vol. 3).

Nearly made it through the whole thing over a couple of days. I'll wrap up disc 4 tomorrow.

lotsa music from the rusty sucker - no sonic issues to my lousy ears, whatsoever ... been listening to the sessions that ended up (partly) on the albums "Empathy", the Gary McFarland album, "Trio 64", "Stan Getz & Bill Evans", "The Bill Evans Trio Live", "Trio '65", "Bill Evans Trio at Town Hall Volume One", and now I'm into the "California Here I Come" material. Will wrap it up with "At Montreux Jazz Festival" in the end.

The Complete Bud Powell on Verve... the last couple of nights i've really been enjoying the first couple of discs. Like, "can't believe i've slept on this for so long" enjoying.

more Bill Evans ... not too familiar with this box set so far, but I'm lovin' it!

CENTERING - William Parker - Disc 4 - "Big Moon Ensemble" -Jemeel Moondoc (alto sax), Daniel Carter (alto sax, tenor sax, trumpet, cornet); Arthur Williams, Roy Campbell, Jr. (trumpet); William Parker (bass, recitation); Jay Oliver (bass); Denis Charles, Rashid Bakr (drums). Great disc. First, long, track, massive blowout that somehow does not go off the tracks; the other two tracks more controlled, but just as intense.

I really like this set. With Norvo alongside Tal Farlow and Mingus. And a sextet session from 1945 with Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Flip Phillips, Teddy Wilson a.o., where you can hear Norvo's early modernist leanings.

Some very fine Tal Farlow on that set.

Duke Ellington – The Centennial Edition – CD 6a – June 1931 [The Early Recordings –1927–1934] (RCA Victor)

(Strangely enough the CD my mi3 that I played this morning included a cover of "Mystery Song".)

If ever a body of music called out to be permanently available...

Ridiculous that it exists only for those of us who were lucky to be in the market when it came out. Cries out to be available for download.
