Clark Terry - The Globetrotter (Vanguard)
Clark must've really liked that red plaid sport-coat. It (re)appears on the cover of at least one other album. And it seems like I've seen him wearing it in other photos as well.

EDIT: Maybe I've been listening to too much CT if I'm noticing these sorts of (trivial) things!

I think that's one of Herbie's very best records. 5 stars all the way.

Treme Brass Band - Gimme My Money Back! (Arhoolie)

Wayne Shorter - Emanon (BN). Disc 1, with the chamber orchestra. I'm quite impressed.

Bud Powell - A Portrait of Thelonious (Columbia). I hope nobody will give me too much grief when I reveal that I've been listening to jazz for about 45 years, and today was the first time I heard this excellent album. Better late than never.

Hank Mobley - Straight No Filter (BN 1989 reissue). So I have the 1989 and the 2000/2001 CD versions of No Room For Squares, The Turnaround, and Straight No Filter. The earlier reissues group the four recording sessions together (Straight No Filter has two session); the later CDs follow the original LP track groupings, with additional material. I find that I usually prefer to listen to the earlier CDs, with the complete sessions.

Allman Brothers Band - Fillmore East - Feb. '70 (Grateful Dead).  Recorded by the Grateful Dead's sound man, Owsley Stanley, when the two bands were sharing a run at the Fillmore. This has been recently reissued, but I've had the older CD for a few years.

Edit: I had forgotten this moment - between two of the songs, Duane Allman acknowledges Chico Hamilton in the audience.

No grief - just happy that you found your way to it.

Just shows there's too much music and not enough time.

Thelonious Monk :

The Prestige sessions from Friday 13th 1953  and from 1954, featuring Julius Watkins, Frank Copeland, Sonny Rollins, Frank Foster etc.

Great music ! I´ve always loved it, together with the trio recordings 1952 .
