The title is "Giant Steps" in French - she wrote her own French lyrics, inluding the solo. Excellent disc.

Back in May, JazzWax had a column on Hank Mobley in Vocalese where she and several artists were featured. They were all good but I was impressed by her. I've sampled some of her work that she's posted on YouTube. Good stuff.

Perfect fits in abundance.

Curtis Fuller "The Opener" Blue Note Japan RVG lp facsimile cd. Over the years improving my system has made me really appreciate this series of releases from Japan. This month and last I purchased a few dozen of the most reasonably priced I could find that I did not have yet.

"He Loved Him Madly" has many ways in, out, and all around. This, however obscure, is definitely one of them.

 

[Justin V]

Javon Jackson (w/ Les McCann) - Lucky 13

[JSngry]

"Maiysha" intersecting with Rahsaan and/or vice-versa...just saying, nothing happens in a vacuum.

A generous 25 track compilation which includes the namesake album (which included Tommy Flanagan and Jo Jones) from1959 along with tracks which find Ms. Osborne in such company as Mary Lou Williams, Beryl Booker and Coleman Hawkins.

Dreamers, not Drippers.

What stood out the most for me on these two Red Rodney Quintet sessions was the fine bebop alto playing of Jimmy Ford.
