So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[HutchFan]

The Milt Jackson Big 4 - At the Montreux Jazz Festival 1975 (Pablo)
I've been playing this over-and-over-again. Jackson is one of the few who can conjure that extraordinary Louis Armstrong feeling of joy through rhythm.

A bit manic at times, but that was Frank. Probably a must for anyone who has a taste for Rosolino.

Randy Weston - Vishnu Wood Duo - Perspective (Denon)

 

 

And then. . .

Another Denon release, also a duo, also recorded in the 1970s:

Archie Shepp-Dollar Brand [Abdullah Ibrahim] - Duet (Denon)

 

Both of these are quietly sublime.
