I've never posted on instagram so definitely not me.  It sounds like disgusted ears think alike so I better sell my copy before the market is oversaturated!   

Hurry!

Snap. I was reminded of that post too.

I rather like Dauner (though not his heavily electrified stuff), so had a listen on Youtube.

Well, this album is exactly what I don't care for, and I bailed after less than five minutes.

I thought I would give this one more chance before parting with it but I still can't get into it so out the door it goes.  

Ouch.

Here too- Towner is among my favorit guitar players - my last Item added to the collection:

 

 

👍😁

 

I can´t say it is my favourite guitar player or in general my favourite music. 
I think I saw "Oregon" once since it was on schedule of a jazz festival but can´t remember much. 
And I never was a real guitar fan with the exception of sounds of Charlie Christian, Kenny Burrell, Wes Montgomery and Mike Stern when he was with the 1981 Miles band......
Somehow I don´t really like acoustic guitar.

Yep! Tastes are different. I played guitar during  my student days and have listened a lot  to the great Andres Segovia (the master of them all)  on classical guitar. Besides Towner  for jazz guitar my faves are Barney Kessell, Tal Farlow,  Howard Roberts & Burrell & Raney. Mike Stern with the Brecker Brothers is something special (song for Barry).

A Brazilian singer-songwriter with a lovely voice.

Right now, another unsung vocalist that I really enjoy Babs Gonzales. He was a complete goof. But he could also deliver straight and emotionally as he does often enough on this LP. A reissue of an earlier LP which is very hard to find:

Babs Gonzales “Babs” Chiaroscuro LP

Some of my favorite musicians behind him here!

Drums – Roy Haynes

Leader, Vocals – Babs Gonzales

Piano – Horace Parlan

Acoustic Bass – Buddy Catlett

Tenor Saxophone – Charlie Rouse, Johnny Griffin

Trombone – Melba Liston

Trumpet – Clark Terry

Violin – Ray Nance

I have his Tales of Manhattan album, which is a classic.

I also have a CD collecting a bunch of his bebop 78s, with unfortunate cover art that suggests the music was taken from Edison cylinders.

Incredibly overlooked/underrated album:

I have all I have ever encountered by him, which is nearly all written or recorded.

I once pleaded with Michael Cuscuna to collect all this into a Mosaic set. His one line response: "Lon, you are out of your mind!"
