We Fell In Turn

by Kalia Vandever

contem-blaat-ive trombone

(actually, it has less "blaat" than expected and
more of an alphorn sound that adds smoothness
if you can get over hearing "RICOLA®..." in your head).

Listening to this right now. Thanks for the recommendation.

Sadao Watanabe – How's Everything

Streaming to this one now. First listen.  Was it a big commercial or critical hit at the time? The YouTube comments are unusually excitable.

It's a really good one. Both have put out some fairly forgettable records, but I liked what they did here a lot.

Duke Ellington Orchestra “Hot Summer Nights” Red Baron cd

Just one night in the life of the Orchestra, and they were unusually (it seems to me) tight that night.

Barbara Dane – Trouble In Mind

I thought I would give this one more chance before parting with it but I still can't get into it so out the door it goes.

Allen Lowe, In The Dark (ESP-DISK)

[HutchFan]

Lee Konitz - Inside Hi-Fi (Atlantic, rec. 1956)
CD release with two bonus cuts

One of LK's best, I think.

That's the most MPS-ish ECM cover that I've ever seen.

I saw an Instagram post saying exactly the same yesterday, you perhaps or there's two copies on the way to resale.

I haven't played mine in years, possibly a third

Gérald Merceron / The Lee Konitz Quartet, Martial Solal, The Daring Jazz Quartet – Modern Jazz Compositions From Haiti

Not sure what the story was behind this one.

Features the little know Tristanoite tenor player Rawen Shram on one track.

I've never posted on instagram so definitely not me.  It sounds like disgusted ears think alike so I better sell my copy before the market is oversaturated!
