A little warmer, but wetter this morning. Hope the rain clears for important events today.

Decided to play this great Don Goldie cd to start off the day.

Don Goldie" Trumpet Caliente - Brilliant – Quintet Sextet" Fresh Sound cd.

Those are both great sessions.

Decided to replay “Brilliant” Argo release from this 2 LP cd as I didn’t get to fully absorb it this morning. Was a great event this afternoon in Mentor.

Love Don Goldie’s sound!

A warm, windy morning. Slept in and Memphis wanted to sleep in as well.

Started off with a box set I finally found at a decent price that I have wanted, disc 1 of 2, Clarke-Boland Big Band “Blowin’ the Cobwebs Out”

 

 

I’ve had most of this music on LP and cd for decades, but I always wanted this compilation and am glad to have it now. Sounds great here as well. This band was truly outstanding–dynamic, vivid, chockful of great soloists and exciting arrangements. One day I’ll find a decently priced copy of the other Emanonn box set of this band, “Historically Speaking”. . . .

Men might rightly argue that Coltrane shouldn't be compiled this way because it doesn't do justice to his art. However, it was this CD I received for my 14th birthday that ultimately opened my ears to the later Coltrane period.

I've been wondering quite a bit about Coltrane as an artist who plans and records albums... In some cases he obviously did this, like A Love Supreme or Giant Steps... For things like the Prestige recordings or some of the Atlantic albums he clearly didn't .... With the majority of the Impulse material, the case is less clear but my feeling is that often he mainly wanted to document his art but that he did not really plan the step from sessions to albums... In which case compilations are fair game...

Yes, I know. But too expensively priced for me right now considering I have a lot of the music within already.

Carmen McRae “You’re Lookin’ at Me (A Collection of Nat King Cole Songs)” Concord cd

This is a good one, it has John Collins, a guitarist I always like to hear, who was in the Nat King Cole trio/band for a while.
