That looks good! I like Koller, and recently picked up an 1800 yen Zoller Japanese reissue threefer (orig. on Enja). Can't keep up with everything...

Yeah, I've been digging it.  It's chamber jazz -- sort of like the Jimmy Giuffre 3 with Ralph Peña & Jim Hall.  But instead of sounding distinctly U.S. American, imagine the music coming from mittel-Europe.

Yeah, I saw that reissue.  I have -- and really enjoy -- Common Cause from that set.  (Joe Chambers on drums!)  But I don't know the other two.  I'd be willing to bet that they're terrific.

Wes Montgomery new 2 CD Resonance release: Half Note

[jazzbo]

I haven’t been doing a great job of chronicling my listening lately. Been busy. . .some home disasters like a 20 plus year old washing machine needing repairs that there are no longer parts for. . . so we were researching and buying a new one. (Settled on a GE Commercial model). And my best friend in the world has been going through some health issues and loneliness and I wish I could help him more but I’m 1400 miles away. . . so I’ve been spending time on the phone that helps us both out. And that and the holiday season have me calling others far more than I usually do. (I’ve a certain type of loneliness too, especially as I have friends of over 30 years, two over 35 years, that are far away and no one close by of the same closeness besides my wonderful wife).

Anyway the system sounds fantastic and when I do get to listen I’m just awed. A few Tom Harrell and Miles Davis listens have been the best that I could ever have imagined hearing. And this is a great one as well–one of those contemporary recordings where the music and the engineering are so well woven together. And the music has been giving me great dividends as it spins this last year. Wilkins is a real young lion with the goods.
