They groove so hard on Samba para dos - Schifrin plays way out solos, and Ben Tucker gives a lesson on what a jazz bassist can do in a Brazilian groove. Great!

The Japanese SHM-CD of the A Love Supreme Complete Masters (SHM-CD).

Probably my favorite digital version of the suite. (Don't have the Platinum SHM-CD, or download files as I don't do those).

Charles Lloyd and Jason Moran.  Jazz Sous Pommiers 2016. DVD from TV.

I'm not a big fan of Jazz on video but the visual element here adds a lot in this instance.. Remarkable stuff.  It can be found onYoutube

Beautiful Italian ballads with varying instrumentation and the lovely voice of Ms Possi.
