Wayne Shorter - Etcetera (BN). A flawed, inconsistent, fascinating album with moments of brilliance.

Steve Coleman - Black Science (RCA/Novus)

Nice!

NP:

Eddie Bo - New Orleans Solo Piano (Night Train). 1993 in NYC; 1995 in New Orleans. Not quite all solo - there is an unidentified conga player (Uganda Roberts?) on the New Orleans session. Eddie is obviously just throwing this stuff off with little or no planning - and it's still great.

A personal note - some of my favorite musical memories of New Orleans involve Eddie Bo.

I feel fortunate to have seen him in what I presume was his last appearance at Jazzfest.

Rubinstein's Brahms is wonderful. 

 

NP:

The Horace Silver Quintet - Song for My Father (Blue Note)
So much about this record works perfectly. I guess it's no wonder that it was a hit. Then again, these days, the idea of a "jazz hit" almost seems like a contradiction. 

 

Late last night:

Brother Jack McDuff - Who Knows What Tomorrow Is Going to Bring (Blue Note)
Yeah!
