On disc one. Been a couple years since I pulled this out. Really shouldn't wait so long.

Will have to look for that.

Riley has clearly listened to a lot of tenor players, and distilled much. But I do find his sound closer to Lucky Thompson's than about any other tenor I can think of.

CD title is Friday The 13th.

I'm listening to Going Beyond by Ed Michaels, a local saxophonist. My collection is in such disarray that I can't find the disc to confirm the personnel.

The new one from Dave Douglas "Dizzy Atmosphere" -- it's quite good!

My copy has been lost in space for 12 days. Hopefully will eventually show up.

Miles Davis "My Funny Valentine" Sony DSD remastered lp facsimile cd release.

I've been listening to this album more than 45 years! I have a handful of editions but like this one, which I may have played more this century than others. I'm using this version as it's so familiar it will help to evaluate a new fuse I'm trying in my power regenerator. I love this music!

Me too, for almost 45 years. My Funny Valentine really impressed me, until then I only had the "Steamin" Album from 1956 and this more open stuff and the fast Version of "All Blues" really was something to listen to.

That one is an unheralded classic, IMO.  I bought a used copy a few years ago and discovered that Richardson had written a personal inscription to a friend, which was a nice surprise.  His tone is glorious.

Now playing:

 

It's hard to go wrong with a rhythm section of Phil Markowitz, John Benitez and Clarence Penn.

As I told earlier, I´m not really an Oscar Peterson fan, but as "We Get Requests" , this one is also a favourite of mine. "Georgia on my mind" is superb.
