It's a shame these great sounding Vanguard albums were not reissued properly in most cases! I'd buy a Mosaic of them in a minute.

Now playing:

Without necessarily intending to do so, I wrote a detailed angry letter to the Moss Music Group about how those Vanguard reissues had been screwed up, which got guy who screwed them up (the late Sam Charters) fired. I found this out from a friend of mine who was a friend of Sam's. As you might expect, Sam was furious.

This is a breakfast. I frittered mine away with a Binker Golding record.

What's the Hal Singer like? 

Now on:

Miyasaka Takashi Quintet - Soul Tomato (Aketa's Disk, 1982)

Similar in feel to those 70s vamp heavy bop records like the Hutch/Land combo, perhaps leaning a little more into fusion territory.

Barney Wilen "La Note Bleue" 2 cd set, disc 1 (the original album)

I just love Barney Wilen's sound on any saxophone. He brings out the beauty of the instrument and his playing seems to combine the fleet foot of Lester Young with the thematic surety of Sonny Rollins. I have bought everything I can of his work.

Lucky Thompson / Gigi Gryce in Paris (BMG; originally Disques Vogue)
Thompson plays exquisitely on these 1956 recordings.

Guitar as percussion.

Dave dudley had shitty time but a great voice. That's why there are studio players -  to make great records in spite of the artist, wn/as needed.

Count Basie has been in heavy rotation lately -- and I can't seem to stay away from this CD in particular:

I've never been to a breakfast dance.  Would've been fun to be at this one!
