Again. This album is like an ultra cleanse for me. I love it so.

Sal Nistico "Live at Carmelo's 1981" Fresh Sound 2 cd set, disc 2

Back at the end of the 'nineties I transferred this to cdr from a cassette that Danny (DEEP) D'Imperio sent me. This sounds considerably better. Interesting work by all.

Bass – Frank De La Rosa
Drums – Chuck Piscitello or John Dentz 
Piano – Frank Strazzeri
Tenor Saxophone – Sal Nistico

[jazzbo]

Some interesting songs here worthy of rediscovery.

Helen Merrill "Carrousel--Songs by Saramonto"

[HutchFan]

I love Dexter's 1974-76 run of recordings for SteepleChase.  A purple patch, for sure.

You have to really like Helen and if you do you'll like it. It's later Helen, which is different than younger Helen in many ways, and it's a pretty mellow session. Pretty, and mellow for the most part. Nicely arranged by her then hubby Torrie Zito and has a sort of Gil Evans like cloudy climate.

This afternoon, a quick detour to Ghana

Decca presents ET Mensah & his Tempos Band (issued in) 1958. Apostrophe Man wants to see the designer.

Then to Cuba.

Orquesta Casino de la Playa - Canta Felo Martinez - Egrem 1964

Orquesta Ritmo Oriental - El ritmo de la Ritmo - Areito 1995

 

Orquesta Aragon - El son del Pariente - Musicuba  No date but the band's 35th anniversary was 1974

And now for something completely different

Fats Domino - Fats on |Fire - ABC 1964

Fats was responsible for my taste in music; I heard "I'm in love again" in 1956, when Elvis Presley wasn't even a name to me, and it was the first music I'd ever really liked.

Is a common saying IMO  "to have one foot in the gutter" ? The pic shows different, yes.
