So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

My listening schedule is all shaken up by pain management on Lucinda’s broken arm. I’m on my second listen of disc 3 of this very interesting box set released last week.

This is a really good album. Bill Holman's arrangements fit perfectly with Zoot.

The arrangement of the tune "Main Stem" is simply outstanding. As to be expected, Zoot's solos are terrific, and we also get a  few very nice solos from Frank Rosolino.

Since Buster Williams is featured so extensively in this duo setting, this album is a "must-hear" for anyone who enjoys his sound, his playing.  I can't get enough of it. 

And Kenny Barron is wonderful too, of course.

Another cold morning with a wife fighting pain. I got her back to sleep and read about someone’s upcoming “trillion dollar pay package.” That made me shiver and think of “Million Dollar Bash” so I put on disc 3 of this great box set.

This album was originally recorded under the leadership of trombone player Willie Wilson, but was never released. Later it was released as a Freddie Hubbard album. A more recent reissue is under Duke Pearson's name. 

Pepper Adams, and Lex Humphries also appear.
