Lou Donaldson "Sassy Soul Strut" Blue Note Japan cd 2021

I agree with the AllMusic review by Jason Ankeny who stated "Sassy Soul Strut quickly settles comfortably into a light, accessible mode too lively to dismiss as smooth jazz but too mellow to pass as anything else. Butler's arrangements haven't dated particularly well, but the record's too innocuous and good-natured to qualify as an outright failure. It's simply forgettable, nothing more and nothing less."

Ed Blackwell - Shades of Edward Blackwell (Mosaic). From the Strata East box.

A well done collection.

That's why I return to it several times each year. I am preparing an evening with Jelly Roll for a befriended couple, and this will be part of it.

Sue Raney "Songs for a Raney Day" TOCJ SuperBit Jazz Classics lp facsimile cd from Japan

Capitol Records of this early stereo age sound fabulous. This cd presents that sound very well. It's only the second Raney that I have. . .I don't really collect her but will pick one up if it shows up in my path.

Prior to my purchase, I knew and already loved  most of the other sessions from this set. But the Ed Blackwell was a wonderful surprise! I need ro revisit it soon.

There's a bit of a Sue Rainey cult out there, and not without good reason! Damn good singer.
