Enrico Rava, New York Days - great record. For Rava's stuff on ECM you need to search on title - a lot of them are filed as being by Palle Danielsson :crazy:

Mingus at the Boheia (deezer)

how's bakai?

Superb, majestic! I'm inclined to use the word "classic", which shows how far we've come since 1959! Am now listening to Coltrane's Sound on Spotify, as I couldn't get it to play on Deezer, a problem which I often get. Am I pressing the wrong buttons, or do some Deezer-listed items not play for you? I should thank G A Russell for rekindling my interest in Coltrane by choosing so much Trane from Lala. I have about a dozen Coltrane items, mostly on vinyl from the 60s, but they don't get played too much nowadays, so it's great to be listening now to some Coltrane that's new to me.

coltrane's sound is one of my two or three favorite coltranes... some things on deezer are not available everywhere due to different agreements in different countries (but still listed everywhere - i believe spotify is cleverer there); if you list an artist's albums, annoyingly, you cannot see the difference

but if you look at the albums' pages

or search for an artist

you can (because those play triangles on the left of the title are either shaded (unplayable) or not...

Thanks for the info, Niko. Glad for once the problem isn't my technical incompetence! I see what you mean about Coltrane's Sound, as a few more tracks have now rolled by. I think it'll have to be added to the must-have list! By the way, my ultimate Coltrane has always been three tracks, "Exotica", "One and Four" and "Simple Like", by by a quartet of Tyner, Steve Davis and Billy Higgins. I think they're from 1960, like Coltrane's Sound. I have them as one side of an old LP, but have no idea where they're now to be found. Do you know them?
