Stan Getz "Moments in Time" Resonance Records cd

Some great tune choices and an excellent rendition of Shorter's "Infant Eyes."

Excellent indeed ....

Really wonderful to have this 2 CD document of the earlier version of Dizzy´s Big Band. Well, Monk was replaced shortly afterwards by John Lewis, but I think that edition was the one which is also on "Jivin´ in Bebop", the fine film. 
This was shortly before Dizzy got Chano Pozo and included more afro-cuban material, like "Tin Tin Deo", Manteca" and so on.....

Julius Watkins Sextet (Blue Note)

It took me a while to discover records like this one: Those mid-50s hard bop records with denser arrangements and some very slight third stream influences by the likes of Golson, Gryce and Pettiford. A bit of a dead end, and slightly lower profile than the more high powered stuff with Philly Joe Jones or Art Blakey, but I find that they dominate my hard bop listening these days.

My morning started with the final show of the 
"In and Out of the Garden" box set, disc 1.

Followed by
Jackie & Roy "Sondheim" Red Baron cd. The vibes make this better than it would be without.

Listening with random play, which makes formore variation  than all the alternates one after another.

If only all music during this time frame were recorded this well!

"The Complete Peggy Lee & June Christy Capitol Transcription Sessions"

Disc II, has Christy's last session and Peggy's first.

Love that cover photo. Such a joyful laugh! 

In that photo -- with his bald head, round glasses and mandarin collar -- Lightsey looks a bit like Gandhi.  Gandhi in a very happy place.
