A quick rain storm has come and now passed by. That’s spring here in NE Ohio.

I am re-visting this Osby as I got distracted listening to it last night. I really like it.

Billy Strayhorn “Lush Life” Red Baron cd

A cd with varying ensembles and solo piano that I haven’t pulled out in too long.

All Music says:
 
Although not initially released until 1992, 25 years after composer Billy Strayhorn's death, this is his definitive CD. Strayhorn is heard singing "Lush Life" while backed by the Duke Ellington Orchestra in 1964 (his voice is not strong but his phrasing is quite sincere), jamming on piano with flügelhornist Clark Terry and Bob Wilbur (on clarinet and soprano) in a quintet, backing singer Ozzie Bailey, and taking a pair of piano solos ("Love Came" and "Baby Clementine"). These are very valuable and intriguing recordings, shedding some new light on a nearly invisible genius.

I saw someone on another board listening to this and pulled it out and now had stuck it in. This one has grown on me over the years. I dig it much more now.
