So nice to see music of this era played! I'm almost tempted to start a thread titled "Playing Favourites: Reflections on Jazz of the Later 1940s", but am too lazy. Terrific idea! And a most excellent thread name as well. This morning, I've been (stopping and) listening to "Baby Face" Willette: Edited February 20, 2020 by HutchFan Quote

Justin V Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 I need to upgrade to the full Blue Note box, but this is a nice compilation with wonderful notes by Roswell Rudd. Quote

duaneiac Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 This compilation includes a nearly 13 minute version of "Europa" which, A) reminds one of how beautiful a melody that is when just played "as is"; brother,if you can't get busy with that melody as your background music, then perhaps it's time to set out the "going out of business" sign, and B) is quite the showcase for Eric Alexander.

I just bought that one recently. It's crazy how the first 6 tracks haven't seen CD reissue otherwise. The first three have some great George Coleman. To be honest, 'Europa', which has a surprisingly loose Alexander, is a little too smooth for my liking. Quote

On another day and given a different listen under a different frame of mind, I'd likely agree with you. This time around though, that track worked well for me. Quote
