"The Complete Louis Armstrong Columbia and RCA Studio Recording 1946 to 1966" Mosaic Records, disc 6 

More alternates from "Plays Fats Waller" and then "The Real Ambassadors." I've always loved that album.

Sound on this set is just grand!

Yes, Clark Terry was spending a lot of time in Europe in those days. I saw him at the Davenport Theatre, Stockport with a British big band. By the time I got to see the Ellington orchestra (several times in the 60s in Manchester, Leicester and Leeds) Terry had already left them.

There’s always more Steve Lacy to investigate.

Now playing: Ornette Coleman’s Of Human Feelings (Island/Antilles, 1982).

There was some recent talk about Prime Time-era Ornette on this forum, which has sent me on a listening splurge. I haven’t really listened to them since my student days, when I was weirdly fascinated by Jamaaladeen Tacuma.

Amazing how great, yet how comparatively undersung, this music still is. It reminds me of the low appreciation of Mwandishi-era Hancock only a few years ago.

Presumably someone will write a book or do a documentary about Ornette’s electric period sometime soon, and the recognition and price of these records will skyrocket, but I’m enjoying picking them up for comparatively cheap for now.
