Sorry to say this, but I kind of lost the taste for these. It goes into the sales box, like the one I listened to next:

Roscoe Mitchell and Nicole Mitchell's Black Earth Ensemble - Three Compositions: Live at Sant'Anna Arresi

Nice idea and I like the Black Earth Ensemble, but I don't think the group is really right for the compositions.

Now onto a new arrival, the new remaster reissue of Sun Ra “Strange Strings” . . . a bizarre even by Ra standards recording. If it weren’t for the anchor of the amazing Ronnie Boykins bass playing . . . i probably would not listen to this. The original cd issue has been in deep storage a long time so I can’t do a comparison but the sound of this mastering is excellent.

This.

It's quite good for drifting off towards Alpha State, as much as circumstances allow.

The audio quality is pretty good and Johnny Smith was always fantastic.

A guy I know got in contact with the estate of the bass player that recorded that album, and he said his father recorded a bunch of gigs that this great quartet recorded, and plans to release all of them! I can honestly say that this has been the first jazz guitar recording that brought a big smile to my face throughout its entirety. This was the man that Bird would listen closely to every night JS would be his accompanying act at Birdland, instead of going out and scoring.

Deliciously cool out this morning. Walking the old dog is getting harder. . .she doesn't like the dark as much now and she is not as interested in walking. 

 

Sat down and decided to spin this one again. Just because.
