I think this is what Ellington had in mind when he described the very best music & musicians as being "Beyond Category."

That`s a funny coincidence - a longt-time tradition with my best pal aka "blacksaint" requires in the last hours of the year to play this one .... :

This Cd has  very good booklet notes by Lee Konitz as well as some fine guitar jazz.

Disc 1

Disc 2 of 2.  Taj Mahal is a performer who really does not seem to get as much credit as he is due.  He's quite a versatile singer & musician and has been putting out consistently good records for almost 50 years now.  Give this man the Kennedy Center Honors at the very least.

For sure. Saw Anthony live in Encinitas recently. He's still "bringing" it.

Oscar "Papa" Celestin - With Adolphe Alexander (American Music). By the time these 1950 & 1954 sessions were made, Celestin and his band were considered kind of "touristy" and lightweight by jazz purists. This CD sure sounds good to me tonight, though - good-natured, non-doctrinaire, eclectic New Orleans music with enough grit to add some depth.

Chet Baker on trumpet with saxophnist Stan Getz at Stockholm's Södra Teatern in Sweden in February 1983, backed by pianist Jim McNeely, bassist George Mraz and drummer Victor Lewis.
