Just returned from a trip to Chicago to visit our son and grandchildren. So have been unable to post the music I have been playing.

 

Just got back from Chicago a few days ago. What part? We were largely on the north side.

About Step Lightly. Never heard it, you like it?

Now, an awesome find at Reckless Records on Milwaukee Ave North:

 The 1995 connoisseur with the extra tracks.

Starting off a warm morning with a Canadian singer I have three discs of. . .she reminds me of Blossom Dearie more than a bit, that’s a good thing. She always has nice players supporting her.

“Miles in France – Miles Davis Quintet 1963/64: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 8” disc 1

What a great set–I especially enjoy the George Coleman dates which are in better sound here than I have had them before.

My son lives in the north west part of Chicago.

Step Lightly is ,to my ears, a very good swinging album.

Some novelty tunes that come across as perhaps Louie Prima influenced, but some great trumpet!

Very much. The only "problem" is Leo Wright'd intonation. It's really a problem on the heads. Three horns...

But that's the type of thing that I notice but am not necessarily bothered by.
