Stumbled across a Youtube video of Tomasz Stanko playing music from Litania and was quite impressed.

James Newton "If Love"

[Peter Friedman]

With Jimmy Heath, Barry Harris, Richard Davis & Roy Haynes.

The piano solo by Barry Harris on "How High The Moon" is a killer!!!

I may have enough time to get a listen to this one in. . . .

Omar Sosa, "A New Life". . . nice solo piano cd.

[soulpope]

For now both gentleman are "over there" .... Gary Peacock R.I.P ....

[Justin V]

I am remembering Gary Peacock with his one.  With the news of his passing now being confirmed, it makes for a strange day of simultaneously celebrating Sonny's birthday and mourning Peacock's death.

Years ago, Ayler Records ended up liquidating their inventory of this one for something silly like $6 including s&h before it went OOP.
