Yes, a fantastic album, 'Vade Mecum' seems to be a further development of 'Intents and Purposes' and is just as good. Beautifully recorded and with incredible work by Tony Oxley (RIP).

Thnx, actually I`m a fan of the late(r) Bud Powell ....

I´m a fan of any great Bud Powell, as well as early as well as late, with more preference for sessions with horns and of course sessions where you hear the drummer.....

My step into Bud´s music was the CBS Double Album "One Night at Birdland" from 1950 with Bird, Fats, Curley Russell and Art Blakey.

A bunch of Black Jazz CDs I got for $4.99 each from Real Gone Music.

I pre-ordered this album from Dusty Groove a few weeks ago, and it just arrived:

Irakere - Grupo Irakere (Areito-EGREM, 1976)
2024 Mr. Bongo (UK) CD reissue

Superb Latin Jazz/Afro-Cuban music, and -- since I'd previously only heard it as low-bitrate MP3s -- a GLORIOUS and MASSIVE improvement in AQ for this listener.  ¡Sí! ¡Sí! ¡Sí!

The former.  

Merriam-Webster sez:

 

What does noice mean?

Noice is a dialectal variant of nice.

Where did noice come from?

One of the many ways in which dialects of English differ around the world is in the pronunciation of vowels. In standard American and British English, the long i vowel in words like shine, tide, or size is a diphthong—linguistics jargon for two vowel sounds joined in one syllable to form one speech sound—that is pronounced with the lips unrounded. However, in some varieties of Australian English and New York English and in some dialects—such as Cockney English—the long i vowel begins with the lips rounded, in a position more similar to the vowel in words like short or lawn. Thus, the long i diphthong in these dialects sounds much like the diphthong in words like coin or joy.

The slangy noice originated out of such dialectal pronunciation for nice.

I think I have that with another cover art. Mine has a colour photo of an extremly bloated Bud. 
I remember one track from it "There will Never be another You". The way he plays the chords on the theme is what impressed me most. There are so many cats who play that tune on jams, but in a very superficial manner as if they don´t know the essence of that song. If I have to play it, I try to get some inspiration from that very very emotional version how Bud plays it.
