👍 A great overt example of the Basie band’s influence on West Coast jazz.

Fascinating "progressive" jazz of the 1920s. Check out "Humpty Dumpty" and "Feelin' No Pain" on You Tube.

If you like Maynard Ferguson...

The ‘Breaking Point’ session. That disk sounds fabulous.

Bish at the Bank really highlights the best of Bishop’s playing. Really nice album

Haven't played any of this in a long time -

Guinga & Maria Joao : Mar Atora

Maria Joao may be an acquired taste for some but she’s an excellent singer and easy for me to enjoy because she reminds me strongly of a Brazilian Blossom Dearie, and over the decades I have become quite a Blossom Dearie fan.

A great listen.

Giants of Traditional Jazz (Savoy)

Sure do like that rhythm section: Brown  as they say is a different drummer -- a gas. The 10 minutes plus version here of "My Ideal" is almost as hypnotic as Grant Green's "Idle Moments."

Recorded in 1977

I love the live albums of Woody Shaw. Carter Jefferson really was something. 
But as great as Larry Willis is, I like his later pianist Mulgrew Miller much more. It must have to do something with his touch, his sound and his lines or chords. And Tony Reedus on drums....
