👍Monk with Griffin in Jazz wonderland 👍 ....

Also one of my favourites. On my CD´s is a short piano solo piece that´s untitled and in the liner notes it´s stated that nobody could find a title to that little piece.

I´m not sure, it sounds like if you might know it, but that can be Monk´s style, the way he approaches ballads.

But I´m not sure, could it be a little theme from "In the Stage Door Canteen" ?

For the first time I had heard the title tune on the "Miles Davis Greatest Hits", a sample album that was en vogue in the 70s. I think we were fascinated by the tune but couldnt check out the changes. Later I learned that it´s not far removed from "Little Melonae".

The strange thing on those CBS albums is that Miles didn´t compose much. Most of the tunes were written by his sidemen. It´s very interesting to compare versions of their compositions with the BlueNote albums they made under their own leadership. In this case "Little One" from Hancock, also on his own BN album "Maiden Voyage" ...

I rarely play cassettes (it's amazing the deck still works and sounds pretty good) these days but these two have been awaiting a listen for some tome now.

Kip Hanrahan; Days and Nights Of Blue Luck Inverted. Pangea.

Conjure: Cab Calloway Stands In For The Moon. American Clave.

Impressive lineups but neither of these did anything for me.  Not keepers.
