Yes. Nice stuff. Good flinty saxophone tone. Quality perhaps not kept up throughout but enjoyable.

Oh yes. Especially the Ellington compositions. Mind you, I could do without "Accordion Joe". 🤣Very good sound.

Listened to all five volumes and could have listened to five more.

[HutchFan]

This again:

The L.A. Four [Laurindo Almeida, Bud Shank, Ray Brown, Shelly Manne] - Going Home (East Wind, 1977)

Every instrument on this album is beautifully recorded.  Today, I'm listening carefully to Shelly Manne.  What a superb drummer!  He's always swinging, always lifting up the music.
