So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[Dan Gould]

Oh hell yes on Mr. Johnson - bless the recent b-day boy Mr. Nessa for documenting such a nice player.

I'm on Cedar Walton Trio, Song of Delilah the Music of Victor Young (Venus)

Only thing wrong is Cedar being pictured in a Yankees cap at the piano.  WTH? What would a Texan be doing adopting the Yanks?

Miles Davis - Jack Johnson (MFSL, hybrid SACD) 

Finally a version that does not sound loud like the Sony metal spine set. Excellent sound. Same goes for On The Corner MFSL. The On The Corner metal spine set was ridiculously loud imo.

It could be the fact that he lived in NYC for over 50 years. Or perhaps he just had good taste.

Count Basie Encounters Oscar Peterson - "Satch" and "Josh" (Pablo)
To this listener, Freddie Green's presence on this LP makes it the most satisfying of the Basie/OP collaborations.
