Mrs. Duckworth had this one playing this morning and took a moment to declare that Roy Haynes is "the best drummer ever."

The Epic: Kamasi Washington. A minority opinion here, but I really like this one.

I think I bought this once a very very long time ago. 

Somehow I was not really happy with it. I love "sugar free" saxophon but Peppers sound of "Goodbye" is too piercing. 

And somehow I have a problem with enjoying some of Pepper´s compositions. There is one "My Friend....(who), on it, but that theme is so terrible long, I think I even lost the trace when first listening to it. I think I remember there is some other tunes of him, that I like more. One is about a rapid train in Japan, one is a back beat tune titled something like "wish list" ....

Thanks for your analysis. There are 3 volumes  on vinyl from this session - "Thursday, Friday & Saturday Night". All recently issued on a CD box. As a member in another forum commented the order of tracks on the vinyls are not correct.  However I am an Art Pepper fan and dont have complaints about this one.

There arent much Items  to find him as leader.

Have him on a Paul Horn LP and like what I hear. He was also with Shearing.

How is this one?

I like it a lot. Very maximalist. Despite what the cover promises, it's not full of sitars etc.
