It's almost like a portrait done in the last couple of years of his life, after his disastrous head injury in 1977, and consequent severe decline in health, which led to his death in 1979. 

I did not know this. I did not mean to make light of it.

Maybe not "Jazz" (?) ... but it swings mightily.

Angel Bat Dawid, The Oracle (International Anthem)

Charlie Byrd "My Inspiration--Music of Brazil" Concord cd

I bought this because of Maucha Adnet--I buy anything she sings on. It's easy listening jazz, and raising the temperature a little here in cold NE Ohio.

Ella Fitzgerald with the Duke Ellington Orchestra "At Duke's Place" Verve cd

This is one of my favorite of Ella's collaborations. Just so wonderfully relaxed and the arrangements so tenderly enveloping her. Great music and engineering.

Good, swinging stuff.
