Mark Masters Jazz Ensemble featuring Gary Smulyan “American Jazz Institute presents Ellington Saxophone Encounters”

 

 

 

 

A very well-recorded swinging disc that has scratched an itch for Ellington music.

Alice Babs and Duke Ellington “Serenade to Sweden” cd

Now a focus on Ellington trombones and Alice Babs, an excellent session recorded in Stockholm.

If ever there is a jazz album that could use the Plangent Process. . . I think this one would benefit heavily, there seems to be a wobble to the sound.
