Billy Harper - Somalia (Evidence, rec. 1993)
This is one of Harper's best, imho. It's right there with Capra Black.

And Soul of an Angel.

Now playing:

Dizzy Gillespie - The Big Bands (LRC, recorded 1962 & 1968)
Disc 1

There's some excellent music here -- but it's astonishing how bad a job LRC does packaging it. They do all that they can to convey, "Hey, we're cheap!" (And I don't mean value-conscious cheap. I mean slipshod and careless.) 

Dizzy deserves better.

 Beauties! - both Mrs. Dickerson and the recording.

I agree. It’s a superb performance and as good as anything Dickerson ever released. The band is spectacular too, Tucker and Cyrille being particular revelations.
