Right now, another unsung vocalist that I really enjoy Babs Gonzales. He was a complete goof. But he could also deliver straight and emotionally as he does often enough on this LP. A reissue of an earlier LP which is very hard to find:

I have his Tales of Manhattan album, which is a classic.

I also have a CD collecting a bunch of his bebop 78s, with unfortunate cover art that suggests the music was taken from Edison cylinders.

Incredibly overlooked/underrated album:

I have all I have ever encountered by him, which is nearly all written or recorded.

I once pleaded with Michael Cuscuna to collect all this into a Mosaic set. His one line response: "Lon, you are out of your mind!"

Listening now to two newly arrived Teagarden LPs from a four LP lot of Jackson I got very cheaply from eBay. First up was a mono LP of “Think Well of Me”–I’ve had the stereo on LP and cd, but never heard the mono and it’s a great mix, and sounded great. Now I’m listening to “Mis’ry and the Blues” one of my favorites–I’ve never had it on LP only on cd, and it’s a great sound stereo copy. Now I need to decide of I want to splurge on a (more expensive) mono copy. I’ll keep an eye out I’m sure I’ll find one eventually I can’t resist. I’m a Teagarden fanatic, more so as time passes.

These are my favourite of his records. But I don't own them!

Uyama Hiroto – Freeform Jazz (Roph, 2016)

First listen to this. I wasn't paying attention and I assumed it was some new London group playing blissed out electric jazz in the current style. I'm quite impressed that it is actually a hip hop production but just some guy. Very sophisticated stuff in production terms. am not sure I will listen to it again though.
