So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

So much teenage energy momentum that they gotta stick in the odd 2/4 bar to hold it all! And even then, it threatens to run over and out all over everything!

Yet another great Donald Byrd album, "Fuego," Blue Note Japan RVG LP facsimile cd.

NP:

The Best of the Big Bands: Claude Thornhill (Columbia/Sony)

and earlier:

Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath (RCA Neon/Fledg'ling)

A bit of a contrast between these two.

Cd 2

Études Transcendantes Pour Un Piano Imaginaire / Grande Toccata / Gymkhana

Prompted by Larry's Phil Woods thread:

Phil Talks with Quill: The Phil Woods Quartet with Gene Quill Sitting In (Epic, 1959)

Three volumes is about two too many to get a really quality experience. Too much cheap uninspired borderline competent cheap (oh, I already said cheap...well ok, CHEAP) imitations dripping with the slime of greed and insincerity.

But there are gems, and near-gems, things that have lineage (if not necessarily quality) and things that are just out of the blue WTF?!?!?!?!

But those would have fit on one disc quite nicely. Definitely no more than two.
