So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[jazzbo]

Grateful Dead “Grayfolded” disc 1

A headphone listen as one of my 300B tubes died on Monday. . . after only 3 months of use, a real bummer.

But . . . this one is made for headphones in important ways. Always a trip.

JD Allen - Love Stone (Savant)

Next up:

Freddie Hubbard - Bolivia (MusicMasters, 1991)
with Ralph Moore (ts, ss), Vincent Herring (as, ss), Cedar Walton (p), David Williams (b), Billy Higgins (d), and Giovanni Hidalgo (perc)

Giovanni Hidalgo plays congas on the opening cut, "Homegrown," only.  He brings so much groove juice that I wish he would have been asked to stick around for more.

If this is a CD-R, be sure to back that up on your hard drive. VSOP told me in 2012 that all of their CD releases would be on CD-R. I haven't bought one since.

Speaking of . . .

Giovanni Hidalgo - Worldwide (RMM/Sony Discos, 1993)

Congas, Cowbell, Bata, Shekere, Guiro, Bongos, Tom Tom, Cymbal, Drums – Giovanni Hidalgo
Trumpet, Flugelhorn – Lew Soloff
Flutes – Dave Valentin, Mario Rivera
Saxophones – Andres Boiarsky, Mario Rivera, Craig Handy
Piano – Eric Figueroa, Hilton Ruiz
Bass – Eddie Rivera
Drums – Ignacio Berroa
Other Percussion – Jose Hidalgo, Carlos Rodriguez, Marty Sheller

Phew!  Such a terrific record.  . . . Hidalgo is the hero, but bassist Eddie "Gua Gua" Rivera is the glue.

Definitely a follower not a leader, but this is a good record.
