'Twas a hot night, the window unit was on all night. I got six hours in and now the unit is off and I’m going to listen for a while since it’s cool for a spell.

Starting off with another disc from the “Enjoying the Ride” sixtieth anniversary Grateful Dead box set, thie earliest one I’ve played yet, Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Uniondale, NY (3/16/73), disc 1

Wanted to hear some Dexter after seeing an hour long “documentary” “Before Midnight” about the making of the film “Round Midnight.”

Dexter Gordon “Montmartre 1964” Storyville cd

7fce734f875b92401b0e203830a87ba994b3e9ed

Dexter Gordon (ts & vo)
Tete Montoliu (p)
Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (b)
Alex Riel (dr)

Recorded at Jazzhus Montmarte 1964

 

Edit to add: this is one of the really good live Dexters of the period. Tete and Dexter both make some great quotes, and Bobby Timmons should be flattered. NHOP is so well-presented here and this trio makes a pocket that Dexter seems to enjoy sitting in. I find this is one of those few discs that sound better with the "Phase" in the "Out" position on my DAC.

Corea’s work with Origin remains one of my favorites of his.

This session precedes the recordings at the Blue Note club; the band is the same except Adam Cruz replaces Jeff Ballard on drums at the Blue Note.

👍Picked up the RCA long time ago for cheap (couldn't believe it, same artwork!). Glad I did, the BNs, Impulses, and Columbias are favorites!

I hope that Sense of Values gets chosen for Mack Avenue's Strata-East reissue series. I'd love to have it on vinyl or CD.

The two records that Hank Jones made for Black & Blue with Duvivier and Dawson -- Compassion and Bluesette -- are soooooooo good. :tup

“For The Last Time - Ruby Braff’s Historic Final Performance With Scott Hamilton” Arbors 2 cd set, disc 1

I pulled a handful of Ruby Braff cds from the shelves and will listen to them over the next weeks. He was a continuously interesting player, always seriously working the traditional jazz field with sincere aritstry. He certainly ended his performing career on a high point with these recordings.
